Reflexology gets approval

The Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC) has approved reflexology practitioners to register with them. The Council’s aim is to establish and maintain a voluntary register of complementary healthcare practitioners in the UK who meet its standards of competence and practice and make that available to the general public.

The voluntary register will open over the course of this year to a wide range of complementary and natural healthcare practitioners. Reflexology is the fourth discipline for which the register has opened this year, joining massage therapy, nutritional therapy and aromatherapy.

It’s always sensible to get a recommendation when using any practitioner, and to check their training and credentials with their regulating body. To contact CNHC for a register go to www.cnhc.org.uk
