When you book for your initial appointment you will be asked to fill out a consultation form. The form will ask about any current medical conditions you have alongside more general questions about your wellbeing. Please rest assured that any information you provide us will be stored securely and 100% confidential.

When you arrive Colin will answer the buzzer. Please arrive on time, thank you.

During the session

INITIAL CONSULTATION (Cost: £45)

1. Assessment (30 min)

Colin will discuss the information you have provided as part of a traditional diagnosis. A postural, tongue, pules and palpatory assessment will be taken before treatment. It’s important to tell Colin what you want from each session. 

2. Thai Massage (60 min)

Nuad Boran is an ancient style of bodywork from the east. Your first session will focus mainly on acupressure, and using gentle assisted yoga to create space. Allowing vital energy to move freely bringing balance back into your body.

FOLLOW UP (Cost: £35)

 1. Treatment Plan (60 min)

Having complete the assessment and initial treatment Colin will inform you of the next step in your treatment plan. Each session brings together a collaboration of corrective and healing techniques. Colin works with you to tailor each session to your needs. 

You’re encouraged to communicate preferences freely regarding technique, pressure, music, temperature or any other aspect of the experience. Colin strives to produce the best quality bodywork. Please let him know how he can make that possible for you.

After your session

Everyone reacts differently to treatment. Some report feeling “spaced out”, others say “energised”. About 85% say they are “pain free” after the first session. Others take a ‘follow up’ appointment. Long term patients often have a condition that may need ongoing bodywork to manage. Many enjoy athletic sports/challenging activities that they would like to continue doing. Others have a stressful or demanding job.

It’s normal to experience delayed muscle soreness. If you have any pain? It’s an excellent indication that you should book a ‘follow up’ appointment. Bodywork is an ongoing process; there are often no quick fixes. Maintain results with a regular yoga practice, and make time to receive treatment.
