We are always busy in the background, influencing on your behalf.

Integrated Medical Alliance & Social Prescribing Link Workers

We are proud to be one of the first organisations to be involved in the Integrated Medical Alliance (IMA) through Dr Micheal Dixon & the College of Medicine.

Recently, IMA set up a training course specifically for Social Prescribing Link workers on complementary therapies and their place in Social Prescribing.  We are keen for the Social Prescribing Link workers to recognise, that while most reflexology is provided privately at a cost unlike much of social prescribing linking, they should still understand it and also be able to converse with their patients should the subject be raised.
