ITEC Diploma in Reflexology
ITEC DIPLOMA IN REFLEXOLOGY, ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY
Course Details
Reflexology is an alternative therapy involving the practice of massaging or applying pressure to parts of the feet and hands, with the goal of encouraging a beneficial effect on other parts of the body, or to improve general health.
This natural healing art is based on the principle that there are reflexes in the feet, hands and ears and their referral areas within zone related areas, which correspond to every part, gland and organ of the body.
The ITEC Diploma in Reflexology comprises the following ITEC units:
- Anatomy & Physiology
- Reflexology
- Professional Conduct and Business Awareness
All the units are mandatory.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
The candidate will study the theory of all treatments, and will cover the Anatomy & Physiology of the whole body within the Anatomy & Physiology unit. Also a vital part of their training is the underpinning knowledge and skills required to successfully perform a Reflexology treatment.
