Reflexology
Duties and Responsibilities: Reflexologists work with patients to help them ease the
stress and tension in their lives. They perform therapeutic massage techniques
to stimulate pressure points in patients' hands and feet. Some reflexologists
also work with pressure points around the ears.
Salary: $39,860
Education: Aspiring reflexologists can complete a certificate or an
associate's degree program in massage therapy that includes courses in
reflexology. Or, they can complete a massage therapy program and then earn a
certificate in reflexology through a continuing education program.
Demands and Need: The ARCB offers a voluntary reflexology certification, which requires a written and practical test, plus 110 hours of training. To remain certification, students are required to complete 12 hours of continuing education every 2 years.
Reflection: Yes I would want to look further into this but then again I don't. The reason this career caught my attention is because I love helping people and part of this career is helping people. The reason why I would not want to do this is because they have to touch people's feet when they are stressed and feet are a big problem for me. I don't really like touching feet. However, besides that I would love to look into this and see if this is something that I would actually consider.
