New Clients: Booking Initial Treatment
Once I have checked the form I will arrange an initial call with you as soon as mutually convenient. This is a free short call to advise what I can offer, whether I can help, to discuss treatments options with you and book your initial treatment if appropriate.
For certain conditions, treatments can be more effective when combined with other therapies. I am always happy to recommend other types of treatment and practitioners in order to serve your needs as effectively as possible. Advice from a qualified medical doctor is naturally always recommended. I do receive patient referrals from GP’s or see clients with conditions for which they are receiving treatment; in these cases I will work alongside the client’s GP or consultant.
Initial Treatment & Consultation
Your initial consultation and medical history will usually be taken at my home clinic with masks & ventilation. If you prefer I can offer a remote consultation via Zoom, FaceTime or over the phone before the hands-on treatment. Please note that for clinical massage/Jing Method™Advanced Clinical Massage (to treat any pain, injuries or conditions) I will usually need to carry out a full orthopaedic assessment and functional muscle testing. So if you prefer an online consultation for this type of treatment a video call will be required.
