Welcome
You don’t need to know anything about reflexology to start. If you’re curious, caring and would love to learn a hands-on skill, you’re who we teach.
Most of our students have never studied reflexology, or any therapy, before they join us. We start from the very beginning and take you through everything step by step, in a small, friendly group where you’ll get plenty of time with your tutor.
Three Shires has been training reflexologists since 1995, with venues in Warwick, Milton Keynes and Kettering. You’ll study the Professional Reflexology Diploma in Clinical Reflexology (PRD), written by reflexologists for reflexologists.
