Charity Event

[Aqua girl]

Hi,
I'm looking for help and advice.
I qualified as a Reflexologist last summer, but fell pregnant soon after and also decided to build a house (not good planning at all!) So i havent twiddled with toes for about 10months now and have been asked to take a stall at a Charity event doing 15minute taster sessions of Reflexology and am now panicking!
I remember something about having to do so many hours of training a year to keep your hand in - (further development or something like that) would that now make my insurance void if i havent?
Also, does anyone have advice on on what area's to concentrate on for 15mins and i assume you still have to go thru the clients health history first?

eek - i'm stressing, but really want to do it to get me back into it and its for a good cause.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Rach

Hiya

First check your insurance out with your insurers - they all vary! The Continuing Professional Development usually applies to membership of a governing body such as FHT.

When I do tasters at pamper parties, I usually do a short foot massage, then thumb walk over both feet and just do it once, then another short foot and lower leg massage. 5 minutes for each makes 20 minutes.

My insurance insists that I do a medical questionnaire, mine consists of one page and to be honest the main value is in the (potential) client's name and address details!

Oh and relax and enjoy yourself - these do's are great ways to keep your hands in and a good source of clients.
