Laura Norman Reflexology

World-renowned expert Reflexologist, Laura Norman, takes Reflexology beyond a healing art into a higher state of wellness.

Laura Norman, BS, MS, is a Nationally Certified Reflexologist, a Licensed Massage Therapist, Esthetician (skincare specialist) and Life Coach in New York and Florida. Laura discovered the powerful effects of Reflexology in the early 1970s through her work with multiply handicapped and emotionally disturbed children at the Maimonides Institute in New York. Reflexology reduced the childrens' stress levels and increased their attention spans. Improvements in their physical functioning and learning abilities soon followed.

For over thirty-five years Laura has pursued her mission of making the science of Reflexology understood, appreciated and available worldwide. Laura has a large list of accomplishments including a national best selling book, Feet First: A Guide to Foot Reflexology (Fireside, Simon & Schuster), that has sold nearly a half million copies worldwide and has been translated into several languages for international distribution.

She has sat on the Board of Directors of the Reflexology Association of America and routinely lectures and teaches at venues such as universities, hospitals, corporations, the Learning Annex, Health Expos, Parents without Partners, Rehabilitation Counselors for Drug and Alcohol Abuse, cruise ships and spas. In addition to being published by Simon & Schuster, Laura has served as a consultant, author and spokesperson for several other publishers including Reader’s Digest, Time-Life Books, Elsevier Publishing and Rodale Press, as well as major footcare/shoe companies like Dr. Scholl’s, Odor Eaters, Nike, Hush Puppies, Candie’s Shoes, consumer product companies such as Johnson and Johnson, Aveeno, Life Fitness, Calgon/Coty, Vaseline Intensive Care and several major department store chains.

Laura Norman works with more than the feet, hands and ears. She is also a Life Coach who works holistically with each person – physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Laura combines her method of Reflexology with many modalities, including affirmative thinking/speaking, visualization/imagery, color therapy, music therapy and aromatherapy, to inspire clients to achieve their personal and professional goals.

Ms. Norman has “touched the soles” of many celebrities including Barbara DeAngelis, Phil Donahue, Bruce Jenner, Robert Klein, Liza Minelli, Regis Philbin, Joan and Melissa Rivers, Hilary Swank, Nell Carter, Howard Stern and Robin Quivers.

As the authoritative voice of Reflexology, Laura has advanced the practice of this healing and soothing modality internationally. She appears regularly on national television programs such as “Good Morning America” (ABC), “Live with Regis and Kelly” (ABC), “Good Day New York” (FOX), “Today Show” (NBC), and “Extra” (NBC). Her radio interviews include “The Howard Stern Show,” “The Joan Hamburg Show,” and “The Gary Null Show.”

Newspapers have also featured her work, including The New York Times, The New York Post, The New York Daily News, The New York Newsday, The New York Observer, The Chicago Tribune, and The London Times.
