What Will You Learn?

Study the Hot Stone Reflexology Diploma Course and you’ll develop an understanding of how to effectively use hot stone reflexology to promote the healing and balancing of the various systems of the body.

You’ll learn background information, theories and perspectives, overall benefits, best practices, essential use and care of tools, business perspectives and professional considerations related to hot stone reflexology.

Easing you into the subject, the Hot Stone Reflexology Diploma Course begins by outlining the basics of the practice, explaining how it is used and exploring the negative and positive aspects of the therapy. You’ll also get to know a little of its history - exploring the origin of hot stone reflexology, its development and usage over time and how it is practised in different regions.
 
You’ll become familiar with the various components of Chinese medicine; how traditional Chinese medicinal methods are used and the importance of traditional methods used in Chinese medicine. From there, you’ll delve into the theory of hot stone reflexology - becoming familiar with its background and the reflex points of the hands and feet.
 
Following the theory, you’ll tackle the practical side of hot stone reflexology - starting with preparation. You’ll learn the process of preparing materials, the steps to take to prepare clients, and the safety precautions to be aware of.
 
You’ll discover how the structure of the hands and the feet impact hot stone reflexology treatment. You will become familiar with the various ailments associated with the hands and feet and understand how hot stone reflexology is carried out on these parts of the body. The course also guides you through the points to use to treat various mental, physical and emotional conditions.
 
An important aspect of any administered therapy is to assess and understand how the client is responding. You’ll learn how to understand your clients in this way and measure their progress. You will also become more knowledgeable about the training and practice involved in hot stone reflexology.
 
Similarly, how you conduct yourself is of the utmost importance. The course shares information on the professional behaviour and standards associated with the practice of hot stone reflexology. You’ll also learn about professional ethics, such as confidentiality and behaviour standards, as well as business practices, such as cost and suitability of equipment, liability, fees, consultation and record-keeping for therapists.
 
The course concludes with an examination of four case studies that present some key problems that hot stone reflexologists experience and the best possible solutions to them.
