- discussion of your condition
- measurement of the intensity of your discomfort according to your perception on a scale of 0 to 10 (0 = no discomfort)
- review of your habits (lifestyle, dietary, psychological)
- your medical history
- setting up realistic goals
- general assessment of tension in your muscles
- clarification: the therapy will be explained as well as how it could help your specific condition
- treatment
You will come into a softly lit, warm room with soothing, relaxing music or sound playing in the background.
The treatment starts with very gentle movements applied to your joints. At this point you will experience the hidden tensions in your body and will learn how to allow them to go.
All you need to do is pay attention to what happens and try to do as little as you can. Just follow the directions. The treatment is painless and non-invasive.
At some point it may be beneficial to use applied Dynamic Release massage. This will be discussed in advance.
Normally the intensity of your symptoms are evaluated before and after the treatment.
The aim is for you to feel noticeably better by the end of the first session - hopefully about 50% or more
This is what you need to do
- Commit yourself to practice very simple exercises you may be given in between sessions
- Be willing to change some of your habits the best you can
- Attend agreed sessions - especially the initial ones
- Ask questions and try to understand what is being said to you (This is particularly important so that you have a good understanding of your condition and how/ the treatment relates to it. Asking as many questions as you have will provide you with tools that you need to help prevent the recurrence of the condition.
- Let your GP and other health professionals involved in your health care know that you are having sessions of Dynamic Release ™ (You will be asked to give me permission to communicate with your doctor regarding the condition you came to see me about. If you agree, I will send a letter to your GP to let him/her know that you are receiving treatment from me and another when you are discharged / discharge yourself).
- Above all, Enjoy - the actual treatment is very pleasant and relaxing.
Nobody can take your tension away.
Nobody can give you health.
Only you have the power to do so.
