This course is to instruct the parent / carer to conduct the treatment on the baby, however, as a trained reflexologist / massage therapist, you are able to work on infants so long as you have signed consent from the parent and they are present throughout the treatment. The onus of the treatment though is about the bonding between parent and child, which, of course, you would not achieve if the therapist carried out the treatment.

Course Criteria

• Training manuals provided for each Module to be studied at your own pace.
• Question paper to test you on your understanding of each module to be submitted for marking before the next module is sent to you.
• Case studies - 5 treatments to be submitted before certificate is issued.
