The scope and limitations of treatment. An interview with Ann Lett, Principle, British School--Reflex Zone Therapy of the Feet

In Plain Language

Ann Lett was born in Johannesburg South Africa and trained as a nurse in 1953, and subsequently as a midwife in London. In 1977 she was treated with reflex zone therapy following a road traffic accident, and subsequently pursued a career in reflex zone therapy by undertaking training with many European practitioners. In 1979 she trained with Hanne Marquardt in Germany, and in 1981 was asked to develop the British School of Reflex Zone Therapy at the National Hospital for Nervous Diseases in London. Shortly after this, she and Ms. Marquardt established schools of reflex zone therapy in Israel and Barcelona. Her book Reflex Zone Therapy for Health Professionals, published in 2000 by Churchill Livingstone (ISBN 0 443 060150), is the culmination of 23 years of expertise in reflex zone therapy, and 47 years of nursing experience. She is presently Principle, British School Reflex Zone Therapy of the Feet, Wembley Park, UK. In this interview, Ann discusses the scope and limitations of reflexology and how she sees this profession developing in the future.
