Must I undress for my massage?
Massage therapists are required to cover/drape you with a sheet so that they expose
only the area which they are working on. You may need to undress for therapy. However,
you do not need to expose yourself in any way that you are uncomfortable.
Are there any preparations i need to make before my massage appointment?
It is best to not eat for at least 90 minutes before your massage treatment. And
only a lite meal at that time. This is a similar process to swimming or a work out
when your body will take all the blood away from the digestion process and take
it to the working peripheral tissues therefore causing poor digestion and possible
discomfort.
How is a naturopath different to my GP?
Naturopaths do not replace GPs. A naturopath offers an alternative philosophy and
methodology to the treatment of illness, and will spend a lot longer understanding
the patients needs. They will use substances that subtly and slowly modify the internal
environment, as well as recommending lifestyle and dietary modifications.
