In your opinion what makes a good Reflexologist?

Question

What are the essential skills that anyone should have in order to be a good Reflexologist?

Answer 1

For one thing they should have a thorough knowledge of how the body works, and how reflexology works, and also the history of reflexology. Then they should also have so many hours study in a certified coarse of reflexology. Some knowledge of oils, lotions, cornstarch and their application. The most common question a reflexology is asked is "What organ is that?" When they are working on a client. They need to be able to explain things to their clients without overwhelming them. They also need to work in a professional enviroment. Those are just my thoughts on the subject.

Answer 2

What makes a good reflexologist is the same thing that makes a good practitioner of anything:'

- professional knowledge so that they get good results. Any practitioner must "know his stuff".

- like to work with people (and in their case, working with people's feet)

- being able to communicate easily and pleasantly with their clients

- being able to stay quiet if the client doesn't feel like talking (a practitioner who talks all the time is really annoying!)

- be open and approachable

- being able to answer questions in a simple way

- making his clients feel welcome and the navel of the world for the duration of the session.

Wishing you the very best!
