What to expect on your first visit to Deborah
Your first appointment is mainly to gather information about your current state of health, presenting complaints and to offer you some immediate relief from your pain or difficulty.
We will carry out a detailed consultation with you and evaluate whether or not our therapies are appropriate and safe to use with your condition.
Assuming all is well we will then offer to treat you, however, if we feel that it would not be appropriate we will tell you and suggest other options you might consider. If this is the case, there is then no charge for your first visit.
We will review:
- Your current presenting complaints
- Medical and surgical history
- Lifestyle
To be examined we generally do not require you to remove your clothing although a sport massage assessment may require removal of clothes down to undergarments. We are happy for women to be accompanied by a friend or partner. We do require anyone under 16 to be accompanied by a responsible adult.
Once assessment is made we will discuss our findings and offer you some treatment. If your condition is deemed unsuitable for our methods of treatment we will try to recommend the most appropriate person to help you.
