What do I wear?

Chaperone?
All patients are entitled to be accompanied during their treatment if they so wish. Please make this clear prior to treatment commencement.

Will it hurt?
You may be worried that the treatment is going to hurt and cause more pain than is already present. We are acutely aware of the importance of limiting the amount of pain and discomfort that you are experiencing. Our aim is to alleviate your pain. You may experience some treatment soreness, however if you feel this to be excessive, either during or after the session, please inform your therapist and your treatment will be amended accordingly.

Do you communicate with my doctor?
If you are referred by your GP it is standard to send a letter informing him or her of your progress. If you refer yourself and you wish us to inform your GP we would be more than happy to do so. If you have contacted us without a referral from your GP, we would be more than willing to liaise / contact your GP on your behalf.
