Comments and feedback from students who have completed the Level 5 Course
I did the level 5 reflexology course at the Dorothy Kelly Academy of reflexology and I highly recommend it. At the beginning of the course I felt overwhelmed and felt out of my depth but after speaking to Dorothy I was totally at ease. Dorothy and David both were very helpful and always available for any guidance I needed. I am now working for myself as a level 5 reflexologist & I am really proud of myself for all the hard work and effort and very grateful to Dorothy and David for the support. I have clients now telling me that they love my treatments and have never experienced reflexology like it and they see so many benefits in their health and well-being, so definitely worth while doing a level 5 and most definitely doing it with Dorothy and David, two of nicest, most helpful down to earth people I have ever met.

I made the decision to study the Level 5 clinical diploma course at the Dorothy Kelly Academy of Reflexology and it was without doubt one of the best decisions that I have ever made. I quickly felt comfortable in the company of both tutors and other students. Although it was made clear that the work would be very demanding and challenging it was also immediately evident that this was an advanced, comprehensive course and I was going to learn a lot.
Dorothy’s humour and warmth combined with her wealth of knowledge, experience and skilful teaching methods made taking the course a real pleasure. It instilled in me the confidence to carryout the practical work as I also developed my knowledge and understanding of anatomy, physiology and pathologies. There were lots of essays and written work each month but I was captivated and completely in awe of the wonders of the human body. The support material was excellent and allowed me to consolidate my learning at home. Dorothy and Dave are both very patient, helpful and offer a wealth of knowledge, enthusiasm and high quality professional and supportive feedback.
Throughout the course Dorothy was very generous with her knowledge and personal insights. She shared many anecdotes that related our learning to real-life experiences and her passion for reflexology was contagious and very inspirational. Dorothy’s support, knowledge and advice are always available even after the course is complete as she continues to be a friend who is always willing to help.
Thank-you Dorothy and Dave for delivering an exceptional course that completely equips us to confidently practise reflexology knowledgeably, skilfully and passionately. LQ
I qualified in 2019 as a Level 5 Reflexology practitioner and I am still in contact with Dorothy seeking advice or information. So, the offer for lifelong advice is true!
I love being a reflexologist and I believe if you are planning to undertake training to become one, then you should consider achieving the highest Level currently available. The course is accredited and is thorough. It will give you a very good knowledge base to develop further as you gain experience. You will make new friendships and you will look forward to your monthly classroom activities as you journey through the course.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time studying at the Dorothy Kelly Academy of Reflexology and the support both during and after the course shown by Dorothy and Dave has been exceptional. My clients love my treatments, which are all individualised. This is something you will learn on the L5 course, planning individualised care depending on what you find during your treatment sessions. On completion of the course, I felt confident to go straight onto treating paying clients due to the amount of case studies and course work required, the experience achieved was phenomenal!
You will not regret doing the L5 course and you will not regret doing it with Dorothy Kelly Academy of Reflexology.

It is important to choose your training well before starting, and that's what I did before joining Dorothy Kelly Academy. I compared different training centers and I also listened to my instinct. Today, I do not regret my choice. This training is complete, it includes the essentials such as reflexology sequences as well as anatomy / pathology of course. But it also includes substantial knowledge with many other techniques and consistent practice. The evolution is progressive and the support used are usefull. Not being a English speaking native, I got all the supportive help from the team that I needed. I recommend this training to anyone who wants to become a competent and confident practitioner having been trained in a serious and complete way. Thank you to Dorothy Kelly Academy.

After a very stressful few years in my previous career I decided it was time for a change and I wanted to choose a career where I could support people and get up everyday and love what I do.
After a lovely telephone call with Dorothy I decided that reflexology was the career I was looking for. Now the thought of studying and changing careers at my stage in life felt daunting but the support and guidance given by Dorothy and the rest of the tutors makes it so achievable and everything is broken down into stages with clear deadlines. They are always there to answer any questions or queries throughout the course and will constantly guide you on what needs to be done.
Knowing that I was doing the only regulated level 5 course in the whole of Ireland gave me great confidence that once qualified I would be offering my clients the absolute best. Not all courses will go into the same level of detail or cover the background knowledge like this one and they also won't include the specialist types of reflexology like this course does.
Finding this course has completely changed my life for the better. I now have a much better work life balance and I get up everyday and love what I do all thanks to Dorothy and the rest of the team.
