Review: Overall, I really enjoyed taking part in this course. I feel that I can use what I have learned along with my reflexology and I am happy that I will be able to offer this to my clients as a superior treatment. I feel that using a blend along with reflexology will help to further enhance the whole healing process and I am really looking forward to being able to use this with my clients in the future.
