Professional and General Liability
Insurance Policy
and Procedure
The RRCO offers a non-mandatory professional and general liability insurance policy through:
1600 Steeles Ave, W. Suite 214, Concord, ON L4K 4M2
(905)-660-6170 TOLL FREE: 1-877-238-7054
The policy offers $2 million general liability and $2 million professional liability for a cost of $238.56 including taxes.
This policy covers RRCO Registered Reflexology Practitioners, practicing the following modalities: Acupressure, Aromatherapy, Bowen Technique, Craniosacral, Hot Stone Massage, Iridology, Polarity Therapy, Reiki, Reflexology, Shiatsu Thai Massage, Therapeutic Touch, Reflexology, Qi Gong, Swedish Massage, Relaxation/Chair Massage and Touch for Health.
Any RRCO registrant in good standing may apply for this insurance coverage. Current membership in the RRCO is the only requirement to apply for this coverage. Membership in other organizations is not a requirement of this RRCO insurance policy.
The RRCO recommends that a practicing Reflexologist, whether registered or not, should carry Professional AND General liability insurance. EXAMPLE: If you injure a client during a treatment, this is a professional liability. If your client is injured from a collapsing treatment table, this is a general liability. Please note, the RRCO recommends that you carry both, professional and general liability together in order to protect yourself as a professional.
An unregistered,
certified Reflexologist may apply for membership to the RRCO by sending a
cheque for $100.00 (renewals are $75) and a copy of their Reflexology certification from any of
the following RRCO registered schools. Current membership in these schools
is not a requirement; proof of certification is.
Insured with: ENCON Group Inc.
Our insurance program is designed for the individual Reflexologist operating out of their own home, visiting others in their home or at their place of work or renting a small space. The program only offers coverage for the modalities listed on your certificate. Any other modalities practiced by you are outside of our program. We have therefore, designed our insurance program to include both Commercial General Liability and Medical Malpractice all in one package.
