Professional Reflexology Training
A qualified reflexology treatment is a fantastic way to help your clients relax, re-balance, and make the mind and body feel eased without touching any more than the feet.
This Guild Training International (GTi) course is taught by experienced therapist Steve, who has PTLLS Level 4 teaching qualification. The course includes certification to practice through accreditation and insurance provided by the Guild Of Beauty Therapists awarding body. Guild student insurance is included for the duration of the course, plus a discounted price on Guild membership is available through al Covo on completion.
The theory is delivered and examined online with all the required resources available and online tutorial support when you need it.
The GTi Foot Reflexology course covers all the necessary anatomy and physiology which you will need to know in order to perform a reflexology treatment and so you do not need to hold a separate anatomy and physiology qualification.
The course also covers reception and consultation, the history and theories of reflexology, contra-indications to treatment and aftercare advice. It also includes detailed technique modules with clear images which show you how to read and interpret the feet as well as how to perform relaxation and pressure techniques.
The course is beautifully written and accompanied by images and a voice-over to give you the best possible learning experience.
This GTi Foot Reflexology course includes the GTi Professional Standards course, for all students who have yet to complete this course.
The course is fully accredited by the Guild of Beauty Therapists, the UK’s leading professional beauty trade body, for membership and insurance purposes. Upon completion of the course, students will receive a certificate for a GTi Award in Foot Reflexology.
On enrolment, students will receive a copy of the Guild’s full colour 336 page Reflexology text book. As well as this they will also receive a DVD which details all the reflexology techniques featured in the course which they can refer back to whilst practising.
The practical training and assessment takes place at al Covo's Southampton suite and takes approximately 6 hours. This is included in the price below. Further customised practical training can be provided with Steve if required, during or after the course.
