Research Project Kevin & Barbara Kunz

You may by now have read or heard about the exciting developments coming from New Mexico that renowned authors Kevin & Barbara Kunz have embarked on an MRI study of the brain while the body was undergoing a reflexology treatment. The project started some years ago and has now completed Stage I where about 3000 Magnetic Resonance Images have been taken. Stage II of the project will involve the evaluation of these images, which will take some time. According to the neuroscientists who have already viewed some of the images, the results are incredible and ground-breaking in terms of what they can tell us about brain activity and reflexology. We have no doubt that the visual impact of this MRI study using qualitative images will raise the profile and integrity of our amazing therapy, on all levels but especially medically and scientifically, and so this project has the potential to bring reflexology to a whole new level of recognition.

The Board feel very confident that this project meets all the standards and governance of professional research, and so we feel that it is most worthy of our endorsement and therefore our financial support. Consequently, in the interest of advancing research into the benefits and scope of reflexology, the Board have decided to support Kevin & Barbara Kunz in their work by investing financially in Stage II of their MRI project with the launch of a fundraising drive to help raise some funds

This ‘Go Fund Me’ Fundraising page is where members & friends can contribute to support this research. No matter how small the contribution, it will be gratefully appreciated. We kindly ask all members to contribute as much as they can to maximise the benefit. ALL funds raised will go directly to Stage II of the MRI Project

The Board of Directors pledge a ‘Research Donation’ to match the amount raised by the members up to a maximum contribution set by the board, highlighting the support, invested interest, and commitment of the Institute to Reflexology Research.
