FAQS
What to expect?
During our first meeting, we'll have an initial consultation, which will take approximately 20-30 mins. This can be done in person, over the phone, or by video chat. I'll take a full medical and health history to check if it's safe for you to have a treatment and if there are any contraindications. Treatment may need to be postponed and medical consent is required before a session.
​
At the beginning of each session, I will run over how you are feeling and identify the focus area for your session. This may be physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual. During follow-up appointments. Please allow 10-15 minutes for your initial consultation plus session time.
What to wear?
It’s very important to me that you feel safe and comfortable so please do discuss any concerns with me.
For reflexology loose comfortable trousers that can easily be turned up to the knee are perfect.
Shamanic healing come as you feel comfortable, you'll be fully clothed and covered with a light throw or uncovered while laying on the treatment couch. Loose comfotable clothing is ideal.
Combination treatments can be any of the above depending on your desired outcome. If there are massage elements you may be asked to remove some clothing or underwear and will be covered with a throw with only the area being massaged being uncovered then re-covered as the treatment proceeds.

Aftercare
Where possible, it is helpful for you to have some quiet time after your session and ensure you drink plenty of water. With some conditions, people will experience responses as their body processes the treatment. This could be increased sensation in the area of discomfort as muscle and tissues adapt or increased urination if the circulation of the lymphatic system has been supported. Sometimes people can feel exhausted after a treatment as the nervous system and stress responses adjust. This should ease within 24 hours but do feel free to get in contact with me to discuss how you are feeling and I may make further suggestions to support you.
