COVID-19 statement

Some of the measures I have put in place to help protect your health and wellbeing as we remain aware of risk are:

1)      I am following guidelines issued by the government, the NHS and my professional association, the Federation of Holistic Therapists, regarding safe and hygienic practice and the use of any personal protective equipment (PPE).

a)      I wear a face mask throughout the treatment if you wish me to.

b)      It is recommended that you wear a face covering throughout the treatment if you wish - please supply your own.

2)      I have carried out a full risk assessment of my therapy business to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19 or any other virus.

3)      I have completed a certified infection control course and introduced enhanced cleaning and hygiene measures to my practice

a)    I will only be offering a maximum of three treatments per day on Monday, Wednesday and Friday to allow cleaning time before, between and after treatments.

4)      I closely monitor my own health and that of my clients, to ensure that neither party is put at risk of contracting COVID-19.

a)      I will contact you the day before a treatment to undertake a brief health questionnaire.

Reflexology Lymph Drainage

(RLD) is a gentle form of reflexology. Research undertaken by Cardiff Metropolitan University (2011) found it may be helpful in the management of secondary lymphoedema however, many other conditions where inflammation or swelling is present may also benefit from this treatment.

 

Please also read the special articles if they relate to a condition you suffer from or look at the Testimonials page for feedback received from some of my clients.
