Do I need a referral?
No, you can book directly. If you have recent scans, blood work or a specialist's letter, bring them. None of it is required, all of it is useful.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on the case, and you will be given a rough number after the first visit rather than being signed up to a package. Something acute may take two or three sessions. Something you have carried for years takes longer, and we would rather say so at the start than at session eight.
What will it actually feel like?
That depends which treatment you end up having, and it is set out honestly on the Treatments Products page, marks and all. The short version is that needles are not painful, cupping is not painful, and everything stops the moment you say stop.
Is any of this safe during pregnancy?
Certain points and techniques are avoided in pregnancy, and treatment is adapted by trimester. Tell us how far along you are when you book, not on the table. We will ask you to clear it with your obstetrician first, and we are happy to be told no.
Can I take herbs alongside my prescription medication?
Tell us everything you are on, supplements included, and we check before anything is prescribed. Some combinations we space out through the day, some we avoid altogether. Never stop or change a prescribed medicine on our account. That decision belongs to the doctor who prescribed it.
What if I need to cancel or move the appointment?
Message us at least twenty-four hours ahead and there is no charge. Under that, we will still try to fill the slot. If you are running late on the day, tell us. We will treat you with the time that is left rather than rushing an hour into twenty minutes, or move you to the next free slot if that is better.
Can I bring someone in with me?
Yes. There is a chair in the room. Parts of the examination are done privately and we will ask them to step out for those, but nobody has to sit through the consultation alone.
Do you only see women?
Women's health is what we are built around, and it is most of what we do. It is not all of it. Anyone can come to us for pain, sports injuries, sleep and digestion, and the physiotherapy side of the clinic is open to everyone.
