What should I wear?
Generally clients wear underwear while being draped modestly with towels. If treatment is only to the upper body you can of course keep choice to keep shorts/trousers on.
A bra that unclips is ideal as it can be clipped back up before turning over or finishing treatment. If you feel more comfortable in a sports bra that is fine but it will limit the treatment area.
When treating your low back or legs then please ensure you do not wear long compression shorts / bicycle shorts as it limits the treatment area and can reduce the circulatory benefits of massage.
For those with long hair, please bring a hair tie.
Please also bring shorts and t-shirt as I sometimes employ active techniques / mobilisations / drills that have you moving around a bit more.
You will be given privacy to change in the treatment room and get comfortable on the bed before treatment starts
Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions specific to your treatment. Ultimately I want you to feel comfortable.
Do we have to talk?
During your first consultation we will discuss how I can help and what you want out of treatment, along with objective testing. During an MOT treatment I am happy to be quite if you want relaxation to take over. If you are seeing me for an injury then conversation is a must.
What if I become uncomfortable?
Concent is an ongoing agreement between client and therapist. If at anypoint you become uncomfortable you absolutly have the power to disclose your feelings, we can adjust treatment or outright stop. Creating a safe space with trust is of top importance for me.
Can you diognose me?
I cannot give an offical diognosis. However due to my training I can absoutly give a “clinical impression”. Alot of my testing is the same as a physiotherapist would do.
