Program Description

This program is designed for students wanting to complete a one-year (two semester) Certificate in Reflexology and enter the workforce. Students explore the techniques and benefits of reflexology. This certificate program introduces students to reflexology, which is a non-invasive form of acupressure on the feet, hand and ears that holistically facilitates opening the channels for healing energy to circulate to all parts of the body. Career options include creating an independent practice. In accordance with national credentialing and membership standards, students will have well over 300 contact hours. Successful graduates are eligible to take the national certification exam from the American Reflexology Certification Board (ARCB) and receive professional membership status with Reflexology Association of America (RAA).

Note: 60%+ of the coursework for contact hours must be hands-on and <40% may be taken online. Please contact the Program Director for clarification of the contact hour calculation.
