In this class, students learn the operational and functional elements of running a reflexology practice for those who want to open their own reflexology business, or expand an existing practice. Combining Renita’s years of reflexology practice with her involvement as an active partner in family businesses, this class aims to give students a broad view of best practices, in addition to providing insights and access to tools practitioners may use to manage their business. Students will learn all pertinent information for the State of Iowa, including state and local regulations related to reflexology and business ownership, business and client management software, and more.
With a focus on everything from personal self care to internationally relevant research related to reflexology, this course has useful information for practitioners at all skills levels. This course is intended to inform and educate practitioners in understanding business and professional topics, especially those specific to reflexology, and not as a substitute for more comprehensive legal, financial, or business guidance.
