Claire Ball IRC Dip5, MAR - Clinical Reflexologist based in Halesowen, West Midlands
About Me
My name is Claire Ball and I am a Clinical Reflexologist - IRC Dip5, CRC (Grad), MAR.
I trained at the Contemporary College of Reflexology, graduating with a Level 5 Diploma (the highest qualification in the UK in Practitioner Reflexology). I am a full member of the Association of Reflexologists (AoR) and the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC).
I have always worked in roles which involved supporting others, through my background in primary and secondary education. After having a deeply impactful reflexology treatment during my pregnancy, combined with a shift in my career aspirations after having my son in 2023, I decided to retrain as a reflexologist - a completely different professional direction, but one that still allows me to make a positive difference to others.
Qualifications and training:
Level 5 Diploma in Practitioner Reflexology, including specialised training in;
- Foot, Hand and Auricular (Ear)
- Level 4 in Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology for Reflexology
- Enhancing Fertility and Maternity Care Reflexology (including pregnancy and post-partum)
- Adapting Reflexology for the chronically sick, those needing palliative care and those requiring support in living with cancer
- Reproductive health, including the menopause
- Working with babies and children plus support through puberty
- AIR (Adaptive Integrated Reflexology) - a unique treatment to help with stress

Emergency First Aid work.
Due to my work in schools, I hold an enhanced DBS check.
I continue to undertake further professional training to add new specialisms and techniques to my practice.
