In preparation for your first, and subsequent treatments, please consider the following; If we determine that a hands on treatment is required, we need a space big enough to accommodate our plinth (treatment bed) with an accessible power point for our ultrasound machine (if appropriate). We need you to wear both loose clothing and appropriate underwear.  With our Ultrasound treatment we require skin contact which might mean asking you to remove your top or trousers/skirt.   We bring towels with us to respect your modesty and will work with you to meet your preferences.   If you haven't already shared these during your free consultation, please have any medical information, medication, scan results etc to hand. Please also bear in mind that we bring a lot of equipment with us and so if we’re unable to park directly outside your house, please advise on whether we can drop our equipment off and then, where best to park.

During your free consultation our aim is to establish what your problem is and how quickly you need treatment.  Based on your explanation we’ll either confirm that this is something we can support you with or suggest that your starting point should be A&E, 111 or your GP.      This free consultation works both ways - we want to learn a bit about you but we also understand you’ll want to know more about us and how we operate.    So, we encourage you to feel free to ask us questions. We are here to offer immediate help and reassurance before we progress.

When returning to your follow-up treatments we will start by asking you how your recovery is progressing.  This is to make sure your treatment plan is correctly set for you.  If we think we need to make changes to it, we will discuss these with you. Follow up treatments are shorter than the initial consultation, normally up to 30 minutes if we’re treating one specific problem.  Please note, you can only book follow-up treatments once you have had your First Pain Consultation
