Enhance your reflexology practice with the aromatic delights of pure essential oils.

This unique 1-day course for qualified reflexologists will teach you how to integrate the power of essential oils with your reflexology treatment to bring another level of healing to your clients.

Essential oils are powerful and potent and must be used with care and consideration.

Many people consider pure essential oils to be completely safe based on the misconception that they are safe because they are ‘natural’. Nothing could be further from the truth. It is vital that you learn what can and can’t be used, when and how to apply the oils and the importance of safe dilutions.

In class we will focus on 12 pure essential oils, their properties and safety considerations so that you are able to use them effectively with your clients to enhance your subtle yet powerful reflexology treatments.

We will look at essential oils to relax, balance, uplift, refresh, calm, invigorate and will provide some blending recipes for you to use with reflexology clients.
