Questions & answers.

Your first session begins with a relaxed conversation about your health, lifestyle and goals. Kimberley will assess your posture, positioning and movement and discuss the best approach before starting gentle, tailored treatment. Please note that in the first session, treatment time may not be that long due to a thorough subjective and objective assessment.

Kimberley will guide you through the options. Each session is personalised – physiotherapy, acupuncture and movement work are often combined to suit your needs and support recovery, or can be specific singular treatments depending upon needs and requests agreed upon.

No referral is needed. You can book directly, and if further medical information is ever required, Kimberley will discuss this with you in advance.

Acupuncture is very safe when performed by a qualified practitioner. The needles are fine and sterile – most people feel only a mild, brief sensation.

Yes. In most cases, gentle activity and complementary therapies work well alongside your sessions. Kimberley will advise what’s suitable to support your recovery and avoid overloading your body and also advise on incremental rehabilitation with personal preference activities or sports.
