General Treatment Aftercare Advice For All Treatments.

  • Drink plenty of water as this will help hydrate the body, flush out toxins and improve energy levels.
    Try to relax and reduce any stressful activities.
  •  Avoid coffee and alcohol as these are stimulants and may reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.
    Eat light wholesome foods.
  • Follow recommendations given during your session or for further treatment as discussed.

You will feel very relaxed after a treatment, however sometimes either during or after a treatment you may feel exceptionally tired and emotional,  headache or general aches and pains, disturbed sleep or deeper sleep and need to urinate more frequently.
Although you may not experience any of these reactions you should be aware that they might occur. These reactions are normal and are called a “healing crisis” where the body is reacting to the flushing away of your toxins and re-balancing itself.
Don’t be alarmed if you feel different after your treatment , these symptoms won’t last long. However if you faint, vomit or have diarrhoea please seek medical advice.
