Maternity reflexology certified CPPD program
About this CPPD program
Our maternity reflexology certified CPPD program will enable you to work safely and effectively with maternity reflexology clients.
Maternity reflexology is a wonderful holistic therapy which complements the natural event of childbirth. Research studies have shown that expectant mothers who receive regular maternity reflexology treatments may enjoy much shorter labour times and require significantly less pain relief than those who did not have reflexology. Most women find that they go through considerable changes over and above the obvious physical ones during pregnancy. Hormones and emotions may become out of balance making some women feel fearful, tearful and vulnerable. Reflexology may help with physical discomforts and calm and soothe anxieties and stresses prior to giving birth.
This certified CPPD program will develop your knowledge and understanding of the principles and practice for maternity reflexology. Furthermore, you will learn about anatomy, physiology and pathology of the reproductive and endocrine systems.
You will develop your understanding and practical skills to competently provide maternity reflexology. You will also develop your knowledge and understanding of healthy eating and wellbeing for the maternity reflexology client.
Throughout this CPPD program you will develop your knowledge and understanding of relevant anatomy and physiology, health and safety, and client care. You will develop a range of technical skills enabling you to use reflexology techniques for relaxation, stress management and to promote self-healing for your clients.
You will also develop interpersonal skills that will assist you to communicate effectively with clients.
This CPPD program is approved by Westminster Indemnity.
