Reflexology - supporting palliative care 1-day accredited course
Description:
This accredited course in Reflexology for palliative care qualification will prepare you to work within a healthcare setting providing reflexology for clients who are suffering life limiting conditions or who are critically frail. Complementary therapies are widely available to people with cancer and increasingly to patients with a range of long term medical and life limiting conditions. These therapies are delivered alongside orthodox treatments, often within the healthcare setting, with the aim of providing psychological and emotional support through the relief of symptoms. This qualification is designed to give you the essential knowledge for customer care and consultation skills to assist you to provide a reflexology treatment within a clinical setting. This course does not teach you about cancer or other medical conditions. In addition to learning a foot reflexology routine, this course is also about developing your skills in customer care and consultation techniques to support your client.
Modern reflexology provides deep relaxation, revitalised energy, stress relief, preventative healthcare and balance to the systems of the body. You will learn to activate the healing powers of the body using energy zones that run throughout the body and reflex areas, as a foot reflexology massage treatment, that correspond to the major organs, glands and body parts.
