Reflexology - Gentle Touch

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.

Ideally suited for students who have an Anatomy and Physiology background, this course is designed to equip you with all of the necessary skills in reflexology and will complement other natural healing and complementary health courses.

The course has been endorsed under the Quality Licence Scheme. This means that learndirect has undergone an external quality check to ensure that the organisation and the courses it offers, meet defined quality criteria. The completion of this course alone does not lead to a regulated qualification* but may be used as evidence of knowledge and skills gained. The Learner Unit Summary may be used as evidence towards Recognition of Prior Learning if you wish to progress your studies in this subject.

The Quality Licence Scheme is part of the Skills and Education Group, a charitable organisation that unites education and skills-orientated organisations that share similar values and objectives.

Excellent support and guidance

I spoke with a gentleman called Nathan today. He was very friendly and took me through all of the available options for the course I am interested in. He explained everything in great detail, made sure I understood everything and was very patient with me during the call. He ensured that all of my questions were answered and that I felt confident about the next steps before ending the call. His professionalism, knowledge and approachable manner made the whole process much less daunting. Thank you, Nathan, for all your help!

Laura Campbell Helped Bring My Dream to Life

I cannot recommend Laura Campbell highly enough. From our very first conversation, she took the time to truly understand my goals, aspirations, and long-term vision of building a business working with dogs. Rather than simply recommending a course, Laura carefully explained the different canine qualifications available, the relevant regulations, accreditation routes, and how each qualification could support different career pathways within the industry. Her knowledge was exceptional, and it was clear she genuinely understands both the education sector and the canine profession. She answered every question with patience, honesty, and enthusiasm, ensuring I felt confident in making the right decision for my future. At no point did I feel rushed, Laura was genuinely invested in helping me choose the pathway that was right for me. What stood out most was her genuine passion for animals. That passion came through in every part of our conversation and made the experience both enjoyable and inspiring. She helped bring my dream of working in a career I truly love into focus, giving me confidence that I am taking the right steps to build a successful future doing something I am passionate about. Laura is knowledgeable, professional, approachable, and incredibly supportive. She is a real credit to Learndirect and an outstanding ambassador for the organisation. Thank you, Laura, for your patience, encouragement, and for helping me take the first step towards making my dream a reality.
