Covid-19 Information

Appointments

Current guidance from my Professional Body and the Government is that some, but not all patients can be seen for a face to face appointments.

If you would like to book an appointment, please email me with your telephone number and a brief description of your problem.

I will call you to discuss whether we can start your treatment immediately, or whether it would be in your best interests to wait a bit longer.

If I am able to offer you an appointment I will let you know in more detail how we can both play a part in further reducing the risk of transmitting Covid-19. This will include a pre-appointment screening form for you to fill in.

Enhanced Hygiene Measures have been implemented to minimise the risk to both Patient and Therapist.

Precautionary measures taken so far include;

  • Refurbishment of the waiting room to make it easier to clean
  • Installation of motion-sensor tap and hand sanitiser, available for both Therapist and Patient
  • Wearing of FFP2 mask by Therapist as well as disposable apron, and gloves when possible
  • Patients are asked to wear FFP2 masks if they have one. If not a mask can be purchased from the clinic at cost price, currently at £7
  • Patient cross over eliminated by allowing 30 mins between appointments
  • All reading material has been removed as a potential source of cross infection
  • Disinfection protocol carried out between appointments
  • Bolsters and pillows with material covers have been replaced with PU ones

It is in all our interests to do everything we can to stop the spread of Covid-19. Whether you are attending the Clinic or not, please keep monitoring yourself for symptoms and take appropriate action if in any doubt.
