Good to know before your first visit to the FasciaClinics
A first visit to the FasciaClinics starts with a medical examination and the definition of a treatment plan. To help the therapist prepare in the best possible way, you should have received a health form to fill in beforehand.
The fascia therapist will then make a professional assessment of what you need and adapt the visit to those needs. Most often, the therapist starts with Fascia treatment, but with the therapists’ broad expertise, a visit can also start with, for example, health advice, review of movement exercises, dietary advice or help in developing a plan for self-treatment.
We are convinced that the body can heal almost anything, given the right conditions. But just because it can, it doesn’t automatically mean it will be easy or quick – everyone is different and healing can take time and energy.
The fascia therapist’s job is to help you get the best possible conditions to heal yourself.
In the following cases, we recommend that you consult your therapist before manual/mechanical treatment
- Heart problems, atrial fibrillation with medication of Varan or similar
- Injections that may put a strain on the body, such as cortisone or ongoing vaccination.
During certain medications or injections, the body is busy working and activating the immune system. Therefore, it can be good not to put additional strain on the system. As it can take up to 14 days to get the full effect of a vaccine, for example, and as increased flow can help the body to stimulate the immune system and clear out foreign invaders, it may be worth holding off on too much treatment during this period.
