 People are living longer and demanding a healthy and active life-style for longer now. This means that there are ever expanding opportunities for widening your client base so long as you are prepared for the specific needs of the more mature client.
Reflexology is becoming more and more popular among mature people as an approach to supporting their own levels of health and energy as well as providing a full body workout boosting the immune system, helping to control pain, supporting against side effects of drugs and increasing the feeling of self-empowerment.
During the 1 day course you will learn:
- how your role as therapist can change in the environment of work with the elderly and more mature client
- the conditions you are likely to meet from arthritis to dementia, results of strokes and others
- how to adapt your techniques to suit work with the elderly and more mature person
- how to ensure your own well-being both emotionally and physically in, what can be, a more complex environment
- how to add value to your treatments by incorporating other therapies and knowledge you have at your disposal
- how to work comfortably and positively with other professionals
This course is available as a stand alone workshop or as a module in the Advanced Diploma in Reflexology. This course is open to qualified Reflexologists and those reaching the end of their training and wishing to add to their knowledge and open up a wider range of potential clients.
