New Update: 3 December 2021

Acupuncturists, Physiotherapists and Osteopaths have been given permission by the MoH to open our doors to a slow return to normal.

My online booking system is back up and running and getting very full, fast in the run up to Xmas.

At Level 3 I was only treating vaccinated patients.  Based on the COVID-19 Public Health Response (Protection Framework) Order 2021 that came into effect at 11:59pm 2 December 2021, I am no longer allowed to do this.

I can request a patient’s vaccination status for reasons such as part of a health and safety screening to determine the most appropriate way of delivering health services to patients who may be unvaccinated.  My personal preference is to treat fully vaccinated so as to keep us ALL as safe as possible.  So I will be asking you all to fill out the pre-questionaire prior to every appt you have with me but I will not be using the Vaccine Pass App.

Please feel comforted with the knowledge all staff members working in the clinic have been fully vaccinated since prior to lockdown.  And I am requiring ALL clients to wear a mask in the clinic, and have strict cleaning regimes between each client.

• Each patient will be asked screening questions for both injury and Covid 19 via text questionaire.
