First appointment

 About your first appointment

Your initial appointment will last for approximately 1 –    1 ½ hours.  During this time a detailed history of your condition will be taken, plus a full medical history.  It would be helpful if you could recall any accidents, injuries, operations you may have had in the past, also any medications you are taking.  An assessment of general health, and previous conditions will be conducted.

Following this, with your permission a physical examination of the area of your body that is causing your problems will be performed followed by appropriate neurological and orthopaedic tests to establish what the problem is.  In order to assess you properly you may be asked to undress to your underwear and a gown is available to wear if you wish.

If further tests (e.g. X-rays) or a referral to another practitioner (e.g. G.P) are needed you will be informed.  Your first treatment will follow and adjustments will be made to the body using the light, swift techniques of the McTimoney method.
