    5.0 out of 5 stars Clinical Reflexology, 26 Jul 2003
    By jamil (Tenerife) - See all my reviews
    Having read many books on reflexology i have found that this book is a complete all round manual for the beginner and professional alike.The book takes you through initial techniques of a simple nature and on to total foot mapping with interesting articles on patient illness and through to complete diagnosis and cure.
    I especially liked the section on setting up your own business, complete with legal, moral and ethical issues concerning reflexology.
    An all round book--Highly recommended.
