Clinic Safety Precautions During Covid-19

Clinic Safety Precautions During Covid-19

Things are getting back to ‘near-normal’ now and we are able to see most patients face to face.

If you would prefer a virtual appointment (by video such as FaceTime, Zoom, WhatsApp or by telephone) this can be arranged.

We will continue to take precautions to ensure social distancing wherever possible.

  • It is no longer compulsory to wear a face covering but if you would prefer to, you are welcome to do so.
  • Your therapist will continue to wear a mask for the foreseeable future.
  • We will still ask you to arrive no earlier than 5 minutes before your appointment times.
  • Seating in the waiting area and treatment rooms has been arranged to allow social distancing.
  • You will be asked to use hand sanitiser on entering and leaving the clinic.
  • Wear or bring suitable clothes, for example please bring your own shorts if you are attending for a problem with your lower back or legs.
  • All clinic rooms will be cleaned and disinfected thoroughly after each patient. This includes, but is not limited to door handles, treatment couch, chairs and card payment machine.
  • We would prefer cashless payments – either ‘contactless’ card payments or online payment by bank transfer.
  • A carer or guardian, may be allowed to accompany the patient in appropriate circumstances such as a patient under 18 years old or if a chaperone/translator is required.
  • Patients will be asked to complete and sign an Informed Consent form prior to their appointment.
