The aim of this unit is to develop the learner’s knowledge and understanding of how to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and how to work safely. Learners will develop knowledge on the importance of social responsibility, the causes, transmission and effects of COVID-19, and the methods used to control transmission, such as correct hand hygiene and the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

Professional reflexology qualifications with a blend of interactive online home study and class attendanceYou will learn to read the reflex zones and areas of the feet and hands and how they mirror the body systems and organs. By applying specific techniques to these reflex points, we can help to rebalance the whole body and promote wellbeing. This is an age old therapeutic technique that many clients can benefit from and is one of the few practices that can be offered safely as relief to cancer patients. This course would benefit anyone new to the industry as well as a therapists wanting to expand their skill base, allowing you to operate your own clinic, or gain employment in the leisure or care industries.
Once you have chosen your coures dates for classroom attendance (See "dates" tab), you will have access immediately to the online home study that you can work through at your own pace. This will be delivered to you via videos, interactive presentations and written materials. You'll have scheduled video calls with your tutor to track your progress and ask questions throughout your online learning. This online study will look to guide you through the theoretical elements of the course, as well as introduce you to reflexology that you can practice on your loved ones from the comfort of your home. You will then attend the college for 6 days to review the theory and learn the practical application of reflexology.
This qualification also includes the ITEC Level 2 Award in Infection Prevention for complementary and sports massage therapists which is now a pre-requisite for all ITEC courses. Details of the unit can be found on the course syllabus tab.

If you need advice on whether you need to do your A+P qualification, please get in contact.
Already have an Anatomy and Physiology qualification or completed the same assignments on another qualification?
If a student already holds a recognisable qualification in Anatomy & Physiology, we may potentially be able to RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) for the A&P Unit. We may also be able to RPL for the assignments if they have been completed as part of another Level 3 RQF qualification. A previous qualification will only be considered for RPL if it meets the following criterias:
There is an official RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) process that we would begin with ITEC once you have enrolled onto a course. ITEC charge us for this service, and we would need to pass this onto the student. The fee is £35+vat.
Please get in contact to begin the RPL process or check if your qualification is eligible.
Alternatively, you can opt to "self-study" the A&P unit and just sit the exam element with us.

Annette Stoker
Holistic Tutor
I have been involved with the Complementary Therapies Industry for over 12 years and have been teaching since 2008. I have a teaching degree in post compulsory education (Cert Ed) and am ITEC qualified in all the subjects I teach. Having worked in prestigious spas and run my own practice, I am confident that as a passionate and committed member of the team I can inspire, enthuse and provide you with the skills and knowledge to become a highly sought after therapist in your chosen field.
Please pass on my thanks to all the staff and tutors, especially yourself (Olivia), Annette, Yvonne, Yvette and Chris. It’s your combined effort that got me there so quickly. The Thursday nights really helped build my confidence. You all also ignited my passion for reflexology and making a difference in people’s lives through my treatments. It’s been life-changing for me to find something that I enjoy so much and it isn’t in the least bit stressful.

The flow of work was very good, broken into manageable chunks. Annette is a great tutor and our group was well supported. I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 weeks with the college

Annette is awesome, her knowledge is vast and her experience really adds to the learning. The atmosphere is so relaxed and the mix of theory and practical learning covers all the learning styles and keeps the energy during the day from dipping. Possibly some social element built in for networking
-Student wished to remain anonymous | L3 Reflexology | Sept 2019
A very balanced mix of theory and practical taught in a relaxed but methodical manner. The academy is very welcoming and it feels like you belong to a lovely group of people that will remain to be supportive during your training and beyond
