Our sessions are open to male and females of all ages. Carers can have up to three sessions in a twelve month period, but availability is limited. In order to be fair, priority will be given to those who have not had a therapy before. If you have had sessions in the last twelve months you may initially be placed on a waiting list with appointments offered, subject to availability, nearer the time of the therapy. Please make the therapist aware if you have a medical condition. Please also note that therapies are not appropriate during the first twelve weeks of pregnancy.
