What sort of a guarantee can you put on your service?

What value added services, or products can you add onto consultations?

I like to provide client education sheets to give a visual understanding to the education I provide. My treatments are different than the usual remedial massage as I use a lot of different techniques other than massage to help the person heal. Myotherapy is more gentle approach to releasing the tight, tense muscles. It is a cross between Acupuncture, Massage and a little Ostopathy as well.

What is the potential impact of not seeing you?

Your injury / pain will continue to get worse. Prevention is much better than cure however, getting things treated while still in the early stages is better for your body and pain reduction.

What would a normal treatment involve?

Deep Tissue / Remedial Massage, stretching, in some cases the use of fine needles to relieve pain and correct dysfunctional muscles. Posture correction and body alignment assessment. My treatment is solution based so whatever the needs of the client, I will endeavor to give them the treatment they need.

How many sessions will I need?

It all depends on your needs. I would as a general rule suggest an initial appointment, and then weekly follow ups for approx 2-4 weeks to get the problem under control and start the healing then up to you, monthly maintainance treatments are always a good bench mark to remain pain free.

Can I claim through private health insurance?

Yes
