Build a Niche Practice Providing Solutions to Foot Pain

Hand drawn figure with feet on fire.

Several years ago, I was surprised to discover that I had developed plantar fasciitis in my right foot. In all honesty, I had, up until that time, not paid much attention to the condition. I had no choice then!

Online research indicated that it could take a year to correct and that was not acceptable!

I set about to learn as much as I could as quickly as possible, by reading current literature, studying with a chiropractor who specialized in the condition and mining information from earlier trainings I had taken. I’m happy to say that I was able to create a recovery plan that allowed me to return to normal within three months.

Since then, I have studied and learned even more and have been able to help countless others rid themselves of this painful condition. I learned that there are many external reasons and physical imbalances that can cause plantar fasciitis and its advanced and more serious cousin, plantar fasciosis. It’s not always a case of tight calf muscles. (It wasn’t for me.)

While sharing my knowledge and experience with other reflexologists over the next few years, I kept being asked about other painful conditions, so I decided to morph the plantar fasciitis class into the current How to Relieve Chronic Foot Pain workshop. This training has helped many reflexologists stand out in the crowd as the go-to person in their community when foot pain is the issue. By taking the information shared in the workshop these therapists have built successful niche practices serving people with chronic foot pain.

I invite you to join your fellow reflexologists and me this year, either in Vancouver, Toronto, or Tucson to learn this valuable work.

  • Learn a reflexologist’s approach to 19 conditions that cause chronic pain in the feet.
  • Practice a specific hands-on protocol for plantar fasciitis/fasciosis, tarsal tunnel syndrome and peripheral neuropathy.
  • Gain access to a video of the hands-on protocol.  
  • Leave with an illustrated manual and client form templates.

Added bonus! – if you join me in Vancouver, you can help me celebrate my birthday!

Here’s a link to the details.  Thank you in advance for sharing this with your fellow therapists. I sincerely appreciate that and hope to see you in one of these three locations!

  • September 18 & 19 – Vancouver, BC
  • October 2 & 3 – Toronto, ON
  • November 6 & 7 – Tucson, AZ
