Applications for membership will be considered from suitably qualified reflexologists who possess a Practitioner's Diploma or Certificate of Reflexology from a School of Reflexology accredited by the NRRI, or s School of Reflexology accredited by certain other professional bodies or examination boards (subject to individual assessment).

Training in Reflexology must have taken place on a course in Reflexology where Reflexology was the main subject, i.e. not as an integral part of an Aromatherapy course, or Beauty Therapy or Massage course. The course must have been of at least 14 months duration, with the exception of approved full-time courses.

Membership may be granted in individual cases where applicants have been qualified and practising for a prolonged period on the basis of individual merits and an assessment by the NRRI which may involve an interview. In such cases acceptance does not of itself confer approval of any training body, and non-acceptance does not necessarily imply disapproval of any training body.

Cost of joining NRRI in 2009 is 150 euro (60 euro of registration fee and 90 euro of annual membership fee). The granting of membership is for a period of 12 calendar months and is renewable annually at the discretion of the NRRI with the choice of Full Membership (90euro) requiring CPD and insurance or Associate Membership (70 euro).

As the NRRI is an autonomous body, its rules, regulations, conditions of membership, accreditation procedures, and its Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct, may be changed at the discretion of the Registrar and Trustees without prior notice.
