 Boasting five campus locations in the States of Washington and Georgia, the International Academy of Reflexology and Meridian Therapy (IARMT) affords healing arts students education and hands-on training to earn certification in reflexology.
Learn how to read and treat client hands, feet, and face with regards to the 12 Chinese meridians and the Five Elements in IARMT's 300-hour reflexology certification course. Encompassing an all-inclusive curriculum in the history and principles of reflexology, the International Academy of Reflexology and Meridian Therapy also provides instruction in anatomy and physiology, foot division, holistic health approaches, reflex mapping, meridian-anatomical correspondence, reflexology pressure techniques, relaxation techniques, treatment applications, taking case studies, and communication skills. Among the course studies, students at IARMT gain 100 hours of practical training.
Some of the many concepts and philosophies taught at the International Academy of Reflexology and Meridian Therapy introduce students to the Five Elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water), Chi energy, principles of Yin and Yang, meridian pathways and blockages, and other mind-body-spirit philosophies in relation to Chinese medicine. In the reflexology certification course, explore the energy system of the body and how obstructions and imbalances of energy flow (in these meridians) can lead to disease.
In addition to the reflexology certification program at IARMT, candidates may opt to enroll in various introductory courses and seminars, as well as continuing education classes in the Five Elements, the meridians, beginning reflexology, and reflexology for the massage therapist, among others.
Achieving certification at IARMT may be the right choice for those desiring specialized training like reflexology to enhance the scope of practice and credentials for massage therapy and other healing arts practitioners. Well-educated massage therapy professionals can earn above $30 per session.
When you're ready to expand your mind in Eastern medicine philosophies, and want to earn your certification in reflexology, discover your holistic career opportunities at the International Academy of Reflexology and Meridian Therapy today and begin helping others heal tomorrow.
