Tony Porter
Founder / Director ART Training
A practising reflexologist since 1972, he has given many thousands of treatments and lectured internationally.
From 1980 - 1990 Anthony was the European director of the International Institute of Reflexology. He reluctantly relinquished the post in 1989 to focus on new directions in reflexology; new ideas that could be utilised alongside the more orthodox techniques applied by most reflexologists.
Many years of accumulated experience have enabled the development of Advanced Reflexology Techniques, some of which are adapted and refined from existing practices, others are his own unique discoveries.
Anthony discovered that many ailments (presented by women in particular) are caused by hormonal imbalance - especially hypothyroidism. A major cause of gynaecological complaints, infertility, constipation, heart disease, carpal tunnel syndrome, depression, weight gain/weight loss, low back pain and many more. This condition is often unsuspected by medical and naturopathic practitioners alike. He discovered that a painful reflex does NOT always mean a pathological disturbance in a corresponding organ - it is the reflex texture which is important in detecting whether a disturbance is present! In fact sensitive reflexes can mean a better prognosis for a sick patient - See ART Manual.
In 1997 Anthony received the Eunice Ingham Award for his services to Reflexology. The following year the Association of Reflexologists awarded him an Honorary Fellowship.
You may attend these Seminars as a stand alone weekend, in which you may gain experience of the advanced Reflexology techniques but will not be eligible to call yourself ART Registered. Alternatively you can undertake 3 weekends along with an assessment day. On successful completion of the 3 weekends plus assessment day you will be eligible to be ART Registered. Each weekend is similar in content but necessary to fully understand and integrate the methods into your own practice.
