Recognition for Reflexology
The raison d'etre for the Professional Reflexology Association has always been the promotion and maintenance of the highest standards of training, treatment and Membership for Reflexologists.
It has become clear from both the overwhelming feedback from our recent Reflexology Survey and the sheer number of recent emails, social media posts and petitions that what reflexologists want and are looking for is greater recognition and understanding of our profession and the benefits it offers in the wider healthcare field.
We have given a great deal of thought over the last few months to the ways in which our goal of recognition our therapy deserves can be reached, (unfortunately there is not an overnight, "quick fix" solution), and we consider that there are two areas where we should begin:
We must look first at the standards and quality of training available
Maintaining and promoting high standards of training is the future of our profession. Unless we are able to show that reflexologists are trained to a professional level then the overall impression and understanding will not improve. These standards are the measure by which our profession will be judged, and recognition of the efforts we make in this area will be reflected in the recognition of our therapy.
We are sure that our Members & friends will agree that it would be impossible to be trained as a first-class reflexologist without adequate time face-to-face with a tutor who themselves is a qualified, practising reflexologist.
We are, therefore, today launching a campaign to publicise far more rigorously the excellent courses which do give that level of training, and the exceptional professional reflexologists who have trained on them.
The second part of our plan for recognition is research
As reflexologists, we all know how beneficial reflexology can be, as do our clients. However, one of the problems we have faced over the years, certainly in the UK, is that the research that has been done into the efficacy of reflexology has often been dismissed as unacceptable.
PR is in the process of putting together a major research project. Our aim is that through this project we will be able to improve the perception and recognition of our therapy with the public, regulators and Government. This project entails a huge amount of work in preparation in order for the results to be taken seriously.
It is important that this research is carried out in a professional and coordinated manner and to this end, we will be producing packs which let you know how to go about the research and what is necessary to complete it successfully. At this stage, to register your interest in taking part, please complete the short form below.
So there it is - this is not something we are embarking on lightly and we are committed to this being the catalyst to propel Reflexology forward into the position it deserves to be. Obviously, no one person can do this on their own, but together we can make a huge difference.
Thank you for your attention and we hope you will join us on this campaign by filling in the form below!

Professional Reflexology Practitioner Diploma Launched
Professional Reflexology is proud to officially announce the launch of our brand-new qualification, the Professional Reflexology Practitioner Diploma (PRD).
First of all, we would like to thank those who have already applied to teach the PR course either by opening a new school or in an established venue. We were genuinely excited by the enthusiastic reception to our initial announcement, and have already run orientation days for our first 3 schools, all of which will be announced very shortly.
The course has been developed taking into account the comments from our recent surveys and feedback from students over the last couple of years. It was important for us to listen to what everyone had to say, and this has been a huge factor in the process. Hopefully, this short outline will answer a few initial questions you might have and show you what we are doing.
So what is different about the Professional Reflexology Practitioner Diploma?
Well, quite a lot! But here are a few things we are excited about:
- The course written by practicing reflexologists and tutors with over 50 years experience, has a modern, focused structure with a high proportion committed to practical reflexology.
- The course consists of five core units, essential to providing a high-quality basis for training. Unique to the PR Diploma, each school chooses a set number of additional units from our ancillary unit list. This means that they will be able to choose, teach and gain recognition for subject areas about which they are passionate. And as we all know, if you’re passionate about something, then it’s most likely you will do it better! We know that this will have a hugely positive & inspiring effect on the learning experiences of students.
- We are the first to introduce mandatory minimum hours of in-class practical training, and we have ensured that all aspects of the course are relevant to the practising Professional Reflexologist.
- Another aspect of which we are proud is that we are dedicated to making use of technology and keeping everything as "green" as possible. We have, in our own schools over the last few years, developed and tested an easy-to-operate “cloud” based system which will be invaluable, not only for students but in helping schools to administer coursework, case studies and marking etc. This will keep everyone’s paperwork and printing to an absolute minimum.
Professional Reflexology Practitioner Diploma: Key Points
Application Criteria
In order for you to run a school, you must have a minimum of three years as a practising reflexologist and have a relevant teaching qualification.
If you meet these criteria we will invite you to attend a 1-2-1 Orientation Day to get to know each other and to explain and discuss all aspects of the course units, philosophy and procedures. We will also be able to illustrate the unique level of help and support that will be available to you!
Quality Assurance
We are totally committed to ensuring that our quality assurance is vigorous in order to maintain the highest of standards across all of our schools. Once again our methods are unique. When a school is established, we have innovative systems in place to enable both internal and external verifiers to evaluate standards as the course progresses, rather than annually.
Interested?
If you are as excited as we are, and are interested in running a PR school, then we would love to hear from you!
