It has always struck us that the motivation to work with reflexology, for so many people, is a personal one. The desire to help other people is deeply embedded in the ethos and practice of reflexology. We once asked reflexologists why they can become reflexologists. The answer from practitioners in 11 different countries was 100 per cent unanimous- to help people.
