When Feet Speak Chinese

The next Step

When Feet Speak Chinese is a comprehensive, practice-oriented textbook that builds a bridge between Classical Chinese Medicine and modern reflexology.

The book makes complex concepts accessible and demonstrates how they can be translated into practical treatment strategies that can be applied directly in the clinic.

Readers are guided through the core principles of Chinese medicine -including Qi, Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, the flow of energy through the meridians, and the relationships between the internal organs - before these theories are integrated with reflexology in a clear and clinically relevant way. Along the way, the book introduces the Chinese Organ Clock, the Partner Law, the Midday–Midnight Principle, the Twelve Sinew (Muscle) Meridians, the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, and Dr. Richard Tan's Balance Method, all adapted for reflexology treatment.

The book also presents a range of treatment models developed through many years of clinical practice and teaching. These include meridian mirroring through the feet, global balancing systems, alarm points for diagnosis and treatment, treatment based on the directions and rhythms of Qi, and new ways of understanding the interaction between the body's energetic systems.

The book is a natural continuation of Muscular Reflexology, yet it can be read entirely on its own. Whereas Muscular Reflexology focused primarily on the muscles and the musculoskeletal system, When Feet Speak Chinese places its emphasis on Qi, the dynamic relationships between the meridians, and the body's energetic balance.

The book is written primarily for reflexologists and other healthcare practitioners with an interest in Chinese medicine, but it will also be of great value to students and curious readers seeking a deeper understanding of the body's energy systems and their role in health, pain, and disease.

When Feet Speak Chinese is far more than an introduction to Chinese medicine. It is a practical clinical resource that demonstrates how thousands of years of knowledge can be transformed into modern therapeutic practice through the feet.

For now the book is only available in Danish!
