HOW IS THIS ONLINE AROMATHERAPY COURSE DIFFERENT FROM ANY OTHER AROMATHERAPY COURSE?

Get the constructive feedback you need to become an outstanding aromatherapist that everyone recommends.

Develop a practical understanding of the chemistry of essentials oils, how essential oils affect us in very individual ways, how to safely use essential oils for children, and more in this certified aromatherapy course.

Stand out from other aromatherapists so you can build a profitable business, faster, with a deep understanding of essential oils, how to blend them, and deliver outstanding treatments. 

You will be fully supported as you learn, with individual feedback on your written and practical work and multiple ways to contact me. And there's no such thing as a silly question.

Online But Not Alone

  • Individual feedback & support every step of the way

  • You will get my feedback and tips on your realistic written assignments, so you can create powerful blends that often have dramatic results.

  • If you choose to do the massage module, you send me videos of your work.

  • I'll return your video with voice-over feedback so you can clearly see your progress and if you need to change anything.

  • Don't worry if you're not very tekkie—the whole process is simple, all you need is a phone that can record videos. A cheap tripod helps, but isn't required.

  • And if you get stuck with anything, there are multiple ways to contact me.

  • Unlike an in-person course, my attention is focused solely on you—not divided between a class of 6, 8, 10, or more students.

  • Direct Communication: You can reach out to me via messenger, email or a handy comment facility in each course lesson. Got a question, or want to discuss your progress? I'm here and happy to help.

  • Interactive Course Lessons: Each lesson includes a comment section where you can ask questions, share insights, and engage with other students. I keep an eye on the comments and respond quickly, so you're never left hanging.

It is brilliant to have a teacher like yourself, to have no fear of asking any question

"I'm loving the oils and getting used to them, I was a little afraid of them at first in case I did something wrong to somebody.

I don't have a lot of confidence in myself, but it is brilliant to have a teacher like yourself, to have no fear of asking any question, so I thank you very much for that, it makes all the difference"

Thank you, Jenny.



Absolutely loved doing your course and knew it would bring me the opportunity to expand on making products. I love making natural products for my family, myself and my clients. 

They have asked this year if they can buy for gifts, so I had to think outside the box and present in a way that is eye catching. 

I also recycle bottles, so thought this year is a perfect year to get my name and Reflexology in the mind of everyone.

I started to make Aromatherapy Candles as well.



So using hampers, small trays and now gin glasses my products and services are flying out the door.

When you finish this module, you'll be able to confidently treat clients with aromatherapy inhalers for stress, chest rubs for asthma, bath oil for fibromyalgia, diffuser blends to help sleep and so much more. 

  • Essential Oils For Children: At the end of this lesson you'll know which essential oils are safe for children at various ages, from newborns to 12-year-olds, and exactly how to use them.

  • Aromapsychology: Most aromatherapy books offer lists of calming, uplifting, and stress-relieving essential oils, but they overlook individual differences.

  • Why some popular essential oils might not be the best choice for common conditions. 

  • Plus, you'll discover blending secrets that most experienced aromatherapists don’t know.

  • First Clients Kickstart Guide: I’ll share my exclusive client-building framework—a simple, effective approach that most therapists-in-training don’t even know exists.

  • Instead, they wait until they’re fully qualified to start attracting clients—often with no support, no guidance, and a lot of guesswork.

  • This overlooked framework helps you build a real client base during your training, so you’re not starting from scratch once you're certified.

  • You’ll learn how to turn case study clients into paying clients—and how to gently keep “freebie seekers” out of your diary.

  • I'll also provide you with a consultation form template to guide your client interactions, which you can personalise with your own logo and other details.

  • On-Demand Access: Learn on Your Terms Enjoy the flexibility of studying anytime, anywhere! Whether you’re on a laptop in a café or on your phone in the park, access your classes seamlessly across devices—with lifetime access to all course material.

  • This massage routine is perfect for complete beginners, but you can also "mix and match" with other massage styles to create a unique treatment.

  • Each lesson in the massage module includes personalised video feedback on your technique, ensuring that you're confident and competent by the end of the course.

  • Aromatherapy Facial (Optional): You can offer an aromatherapy facial as part of a luxurious full-body massage or as a stand-alone treatment focused on skin rejuvenation or blemish reduction. 

  • This facial doesn't just improve the skin's appearance—it can also address underlying causes like stress, hormone imbalance, and toxin build-up, providing longer-lasting effects.

  • Therapists typically charge an additional €10-€15 to include a facial with a full body or back massage, and between €30 and €50 for a stand-alone facial.

Module 8: Fully Booked Kickstart Guide

This powerful module isn’t included in any other diploma course I’ve ever come across.

But I know it’s something students really need — because therapeutic skills and knowledge are only one part of creating a profitable practice that supports your clients and takes care of you and your family.

You'll learn simple, practical ways to start attracting your first paying clients while you train — so you have clients waiting to book as soon as you’re qualified.

Once you have a few regulars, you’ll discover how to keep your bookings growing with ease — learning how to attract new clients almost on autopilot and consistently increase your rebooking rate, so clients get the best results, and you enjoy a stable, profitable and deeply fulfilling practice.

I’ve kept the tech to a minimum and included easy, step-by-step walkthroughs to guide you through every part of the process.

Real Results From the Fully Booked Kickstart Guide

  • Tessa tried one of the strategies from the guide and booked six clients in a week — four of them became regulars and referred their friends.

  • Louise had five bookings within 10 days of qualifying.

  • Caroline was so busy in her first few months that she hired another therapist to help with demand.

These are just a few examples of what’s possible when you follow the simple steps inside the Fully Booked Kickstart Guide — practical actions that help you start strong and keep your diary full.

WHY LEARN FROM ME?


Hi, I’m Jenny —holistic therapist and tutor for 30 years.

I help complete beginners become qualified reflexologists, earning €2K + a month working part-time—doing rewarding work that genuinely helps people.

I’ve taught in adult education colleges, therapy centres, I ran my own holistic therapy training centre and now online—where I’ve created courses that break things down into simple steps, with real support every step of the way.

I know from experience that learning the therapy skills is only half the journey — the other half is learning how to attract clients and build a business that lasts. I’ve seen too many brilliant therapists give up simply because they didn’t know where to start. That’s why I created the Fully Booked Kickstart Guide — to help you finish your training with paying clients ready to book and the know-how to keep them coming back.

My Reflexology Diploma Course is approved, insurable, and designed to work around real life (no weekly classes or awkward timetables).

If you’re looking for a flexible way to retrain, boost your income, or start a therapy business you love—I’d love to welcome you in.

Your Mind at Ease

I understand you might have concerns about starting the online reflexology course. But here's why it's designed for anyone who would love to be a reflexologist, regardless of background or experience:

  • No Experience Needed: The course is suitable for complete beginners, and experienced holistic therapists alike. 

  • Flexible Learning: Study where and when you like, no stress about travel, childcare, or work shifts. And you have lifetime access to the course.

  • Personalised Feedback: You won't be alone. I'll give supportive feedback on your practical techniques and assignments to ensure you have all the knowledge and skills you need to give outstanding treatments.

  • Affordable Investment: The course is priced competitively, with lots of payment options. And the Build your Business While You Train module will help you to build up a client base so you have paying clients waiting to book with you as soon as you qualify.

Start Your Practice with Paying Clients Already Waiting to Book

If you’re wondering how quickly you’ll earn back your investment, the Fully Booked Kickstart Guide will help you get there faster.

It’s a simple, practical system that can set you up with paying clients as soon as you’re qualified — so instead of waiting to get started, you’ll already have bookings lined up.

Even with just three clients a week at €60 each, that’s around €720 a month — before you do any extra marketing or add new treatments. And that’s quite a conservative example — many students book four or five clients a week soon after qualifying.

The next step is to put the short bonus lessons into action — they’ll show you how to attract new clients almost on autopilot, keep them coming back, and encourage referrals. That way, your diary keeps filling naturally week after week.

Still Got Questions?

Will I be able to get insurance when I finish the online reflexology course?

The qualification is accepted by a number of Irish insurers, including Balens and O’Brien Finlay, as well as international providers such as BGI, Westminster Global, and Towergate, all of whom accept recognised online training.

Are your courses accredited?

My courses are certified and insurable, not accredited — and that’s a deliberate choice.

All of my courses are certified and approved by the International Institute of Complementary Therapists (IICT) — a respected professional body that recognises holistic practitioners internationally. This means your qualification is recognised in many countries, and you’ll be able to get professional insurance and start practising as soon as you finish your course.

My courses are also approved or pending approval by the NCBTMB (National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork) in the USA, and students in Ireland have successfully received TESG (Back to Work) and Community Employment Scheme grants toward their course fees.

When you finish a holistic training course, the most important thing is that you can get insurance and start practising. Everything else tends to be optional — and often adds unnecessary time, cost, and paperwork.

Accredited courses do provide a good foundation and teach the essential basics, but they also include a lot of material that therapists rarely use in real life. And they often leave out the practical skills that make the biggest difference when you start working with clients.

I’ve taken many accredited courses over the years and found that I often had to do extra training afterwards to bring my treatments up to the professional standard clients expected. When I taught in-person accredited courses, I frequently held extra classes after the exams to teach students the hands-on, real-world skills that weren’t covered in the syllabus — the things they actually needed once they started working with clients.

That’s why my courses are certified — fully quality-checked, insurable, and focused on what truly matters: 

  • clear, practical knowledge, 

  • exceptional treatment skills, and

  • real-world business support through the Fully Booked Kickstart Guide.

Some awarding bodies, such as the NRRI and IRIL, allow clients to claim back a portion of their treatment fees through their own health insurance plans. However, the refund amount depends entirely on the client’s level of insurance cover — and in many cases, it works out to be quite small.

In my own practice, I found that the handful of clients who wanted to claim back their treatments through insurance didn’t bring in enough income to cover the extra costs of registration, membership fees, and paperwork required by those organisations. So while it sounds good in theory, in reality it made little practical or financial sense.

That said, inside the Fully Booked Kickstart Guide, I share a simple workaround that works beautifully for both you and your clients — helping them feel supported and rewarded, while you avoid unnecessary fees and still grow a loyal, happy client base.

This approach means you’ll be fully qualified, insured, and ready to start working with clients straight away — without unnecessary red tape, stress, or expense.

How much will it cost to get everything I need to start working as a reflexologist?

You will need:-

A massage table which will cost about €100 - €150/£90 -£135/$112-$170

All your towels, plinth covers, a blanket, pillow cases will cost about €60/£55/$45.

Your total costs will probably be less than €130/£120/$140

But I'm REALLY not tekkie, will I be able to do the course?

You absolutely will. 

The course is easy to sign in to and to get around.

I've made a video and a step by step PDF to show you how to create a video of your techniques and send it to me. 

I know how seriously daunting this can be for lots of people, so I have made it very straightforward.

And, I'm at the end of an email and very happy to help you with anything at all related to the course.

Will I be able to learn everything I need if I speak English as a second language, if I have dyslexia or other learning difficulty or if I haven't studied for years?

Absolutely. The course materials include captioned videos, PDFs and charts and are designed to suit all learning styles. 

There is a mix of questions, open and multiple choice.

Over the years, I have come up with a lot of pretty unique and often entertaining ways of remembering the information you need. 

As you work through the course, I would love to hear if there are any extra resources that would help you learn and enjoy the course more. 

And, don't forget, this is not a "set and forget" course. I will be on hand to guide and support you and to answer all your questions.

I'd love to do the online reflexology course, but it needs to make sense financially. Will I be able to earn back the cost of the course and increase my income?

Over 100 reflexologists have trained with me and are now earning a good living with reflexology. Some were complete beginners, others were already practising holistic therapists.

To make sure you can start earning quickly, I’ve included my Fully Booked Kickstart Guide — a simple, step-by-step system that helps you attract your first paying clients while you train.

That means instead of waiting until you qualify, you can already have 3–5 paying clients ready to book.


Even with three clients a week at €60 each, that’s around €720 a month — and many students book four or five clients a week soon after qualifying.

Once you finish the course, the bonus lessons will show you how to keep your diary full naturally — through simple rebooking steps and gentle ways to attract new clients without pressure or tech overwhelm.

How long do I have to do the assignments and send my practice videos in?

The beauty of online is that you do everything in your own time. Some people complete the course in 9 months, some in 3, the vast majority take about 6 months.

So you can complete everything in your own time, and you have access to me and to my feedback until you have your diploma

What kind of support will I get on the course?

The course is very interactive with a lot of real-time support. 

As you learn new techniques, you send me videos. 

I'll watch the videos and send them back to you with my voice-over explaining if and where you could improve your techniques. I'll also send you detailed feedback by email. 

For written assignments, I'll also send you feedback and suggestions.

Plus, I'm at the end of an email if you need any help at all with the course. 

I'm happy for you to contact me as much as you need to and to ask as many questions as you like. There are no silly questions when you're learning.

I'll answer any questions etc within 3 working days (though probably a lot sooner).

Is there an exam at the end of the course?

No. There is ongoing assessment and an end of course assignment.

SO much less stressful!

You'll complete written assignments as you work through the course. 

When you come to the practical modules, you'll send me videos as you learn the techniques. You'll also need to send me 3 videos of the full treatment, including consultations and aftercare advice. But I'll guide you through it all beforehand.

No exam is necessary, as I will see clearly how you're progressing and where you may need help. The course is all about you becoming a confident and knowledgeable reflexologist who is able to give each client the treatment they need and to set up a successful practice.

NO QUESTIONS ASKED GUARANTEE

I understand that the online reflexology course is a big commitment. If you're not used to online courses, and you're not tekkie minded, you may be worried that you'll be overwhelmed and confused.

I have made everything straight forward and easy to follow but just to be sure why not take the course for a "test drive"? If you change your mind for any reason within 7 days after you enrol, I will refund your fees, no questions asked.
