Reflexology

Duties and Responsibilities: Reflexology is also known as zone therapy. It is another form of treatment involving the application of pressure to different parts of the body in order to improve the general health. Reflexologists are professionals skilled in this natural art of healing. They treat patients by massaging their feet, hands, and ears to relieve them of stress, and improve circulation to the related body areas. The entire method of treatment is based on the principle that certain reflex zones in the body correspond to different body parts.

Salary: $35,000

Education: There is no specific academic requirement for reflexologists. One can get for high school education in subjects like biology, chemistry, nutrition, and health. There are a lot of private schools and graduate colleges that offer courses on reflexology. It is better to attend a 6-month or 1-year course from a training school before taking up the profession.

Reflection: I would not like to become a reflexology because it seems like a hard job that pays a little. It also sounds kind of boring.
