Linda Frank
RF, NBCR, LMT, NCREd & Principal of Reflexology Academy NW
Linda is a Washington-state and ARCB-National Board Certified Reflexology Therapist with a private practice in Tacoma, WA, United States, specializing in foot pain. An NCRE-credentialed Reflexology Instructor, she is the founder and director of Reflexology Academy NW which offers a 240-hour Reflexology Certification Program as well as CE classes for reflexology and massage therapists.
Linda began her bodywork career in 1980 as a massage therapist, taking her first reflexology class that year. After changing careers and spending decades away from bodywork, Linda felt a strong pull to return. Reflexology tugged on her heartstrings, and the year it took to complete her certification requirements was just the beginning of many more hours and classes of reflexology education and exploration.
An inquisitive researcher, Linda is in the process of exploring whether we may have a new, effective reflex/reflex area for PTSD, Long Covid and CRPS. A longtime proponent of educating the public about reflexology, she has presented on tv, radio, in-person and via Zoom, and has written many articles for national and international reflexology publications as well as for the general public. Linda serves as a Board Director for The Reflexology Association of America (RAA) and previously served as vice president of the Washington Reflexology Association (WRA).
Linda was the 2024 National Excellence in Education award recipient from the Reflexology Association of America.
