Reflexology for Foot Care Specialists

Reflexology is a complementary therapy involving the treatment of various disorders by applying pressure to certain points on the feet. Precise areas of the feet relate to particular parts of the body. The whole body can be treated via these points, which are called 'reflex areas'. Although hand reflexology is also done, this course concentrates on foot reflexology.

Treatment by the therapist involves applying pressure to the precise reflex point with the thumb or the fingers. In doing this, different sensations will be felt by the person receiving treatments. These feelings which the client experiences can then be interpreted by the therapist, as indicating which parts of the body are working well and which are not.

Frequently Asked Questions

Reflexology is a complementary therapy that involves applying pressure to specific points on the feet and sometimes hands, believed to correspond with different organs and body systems. It’s believed this stimulates the body's natural healing processes, promoting relaxation, and stress reduction, and potentially aiding with pain relief, improved sleep, and better overall wellbeing. While research is ongoing, reflexology offers a natural approach to promoting relaxation and may be a helpful addition to a person’s self-care routine.
Adding reflexology to your skillset as a foot care specialist broadens your offerings and caters to a wider clientele seeking natural approaches to wellbeing. It complements your existing foot care knowledge by providing a relaxation technique that may improve sleep, reduce stress, and potentially aid with pain relief – all factors contributing to foot health.
Reflexology prices in the UK typically range from £25 for a 30-minute session to £60 for a full hour, depending on your experience, location, and the treatment type (foot or hand). Researching what other reflexologists in your area charge will help you set a competitive rate. Remember, you can also offer package deals or discounts for multiple sessions to attract clients, and potentially bundle up reflexology treatments with other foot health services you offer.
