A professionally trained Reflexologist, is not to be compared ,with a professionally trained Massage Therapist. At a licenced Massage School, they will touch up, on the subject of Reflexology, in a matter of a few hours, that relate to the subject matter. These people, than will go forth ,calling themselfes Reflexologist, and in the long haul, dont have a shimmer, about all the correct pressure points, let alone work up a complete health profile, in terms that are only being taught by a certified Teacher of Reflexology. No way can a Massage Therapist, compete with someone that has completed 90 or more documentations, to pass his or her Exam, in proficency of the Profession. This untrained person might rather do bodily harm, do to their inefficiency and should not be able to do so, unless they are a Student, or a Professional.

You're far better doing massage therapy that is more likely to get you work, then you can just 'learn' reflexology from a book if you still feel the need. "Concerns have been raised by medical professionals that treating potentially serious illnesses with reflexology, which has no proven efficacy, could delay the seeking of appropriate medical treatment."

In many you need a massage license to do reflexology professionally as you are touching people. You should call the state board of massage and ask them if you need to be licensed as a massage therapist to do reflexology professionally. Many schools will offer short weekend workshops in it but you should really take a year long class just in reflexology if you can find it.
