FAQ

Congrats on making the effort, you are very courageous :) 

Please wear comfortable clothes. Usually, female clients prefer tights and male medium-lengths shorts. We have blankets and air conditioning. Feel free to bring clothes to change into. You will be fully-clothed throughout the session.

There will be a very routine intake process to help assess your wellness. All information is strictly confidential. The therapist might take notes throughout the session; you may request the notes be destroyed.

For sports-related treatments, nutrition will be an important part of the session. However, we are not a reseller. The goal is to help you shorten recovery time and lengthen training tolerance in the long run. Pain relief, range of movements, gains are all part of it, unless otherwise requested. We understand everyone is different, and every body has different needs.

During a session, you will either be standing up or lying down on a massage table, depending on the location and severity of the issue. The therapist may touch different parts of your body with varying strengths and little to no movements. If you are not comfortable with this, please advise at the time of booking/before the session starts.

It's totally ok to fall asleep, most people do, but the therapist might need to wake you up to have some questions answered.

In the event paper stickers not wanting to stay on your skin, we might need to draw little points on your hands/arms/legs/feet, please advise if you do not want this. We will never draw on your clothes or face.

Yes, but please advise at the time of booking, or at least right before the session starts. It would be an in-person remote session, which happens with kids who move around a lot, or those with disability.

No, you absolutely aren't. However, massage-like movements might be employed should the situation arises (which we had zero occurances so far). Most clients report massage-like effects after a session, such as relaxation, feeling happy, etc.

No, you are not. 

Unless that's part of the issue. 

We understand the body and treat sexual dysfunctions/infertility/gynocological issues all the time. However, we reserve the right to remove you from the premises, should we find your intent/behaviour questionable.

It's normally an hour and a half. Longer sessions can be arranged for an additional fee. (Among therapists, we often do swaps on each other for hours.) Please advise if you needed extra time at time of booking.

There are over 400 meridian points and numerous salt/protein/fat/acid that are needed in the body. This type of therapist isn't interested in remembering all of them (or attempts to, for that matter). It's in your best interest that they double check to ensure you receive the best treatments. It doesn't happen all the time, but if this bothers you, we can refer you to someone else.

Some clients only ever needed one session to be cured of their condition. 

Clients with chronic issues might require ongoing weekly sessions. 

Some clients only makes appointments as needed. 

For period pain, treatments are more effective prior to menstruation. 

For someone undergoing athletic training for games, you might require more frequent sessions.

We recommend leaving at least two to three days in-between sessions so that your body can adjust to the changes.

I have some certificates, here and there, nothing formal except for Certified Hypnotherapist. I decided I was done with formal training after getting a double degree from the University of Melbourne (Engineering/Commerce). My ability to study had been pretty well-established during those years, as well as working at various places in IT, and it's time to utilise those skills by going into selected workshops/short courses and the ocean of books.

Of course. If you are not open to it, there is no point for us to use it. Although it is likely to be more effective when combined with other techniques. I had been trained and worked as an engineer, integration is what I do... As to why something works better than others, ask a scientist :) On a side note, you have likely been hypnotised many times up to this point in your life, you just aren't aware of it. It is about time we used it for good :)

It is likely we had discussed with you about your current lifestyle. It is recommended that you give the advice a try for a few weeks and see if you liked the changes. Again, we are only facilitators, your participation is everything. We can keep treating you and making you better, and it is up to you to work with or against yourself. While we really appreciate the business, ultimately, our goal is for you to fire of us.

Drink lots of water. That's the least you can do. Put some mineral salts in, if you had been advised to do so.

Most people have some sort of 'aha moment' during the session, or intense emotional release, some notices the changes in the body straight away, or the pain goes away or lessen. After the session, some feel different interacting with the same 'difficult' people and situations, some might experience to be back 'in the flow' where things seem to fall into places naturally, and life becomes easier. And of course, there are those who don't notice anything themselves, but their coworkers and family typically comment on their changes over time.

I remember myself at the start, I never noticed anything after sessions but kept going due to curiosity. After many sessions, one day I went to my GP for a checkup, she immediately asked if I started a new romantic relationship. I was dumbfounded and said 'No', she explained that I seemed to be very happy and that is what she associates with new romance. I mentioned I was getting alternative treatments, she didn't think much of it, but she asked me again just before I was leaving her office. 

'Are you sure you are not in love with someone?' she asked, 'Yes, I'm sure I'd know if that's the case.' I answered feeling ridiculous. I guess I fell very much in love with myself at that time, and hadn't stopped since.

It's not a magic cure, ultimately, it is up to you what you want to do with your life. Because your commitment to getting better is the deciding factor, we are only facilitators of the process. We are here to serve you, and as a part of the service we provide, we strongly encourage that you participate in finding out what's the best for you, instead of waiting for an authority of some sorts to inform you. 

Yes. Almost anything can be done in person, can be done remotely. However, it makes the process a lot easier if we had at least the initial session in person.

It is on a case-by-case basis. If the client is mobility-challenged, we will consider coming on site, under the condition that the site can be set up properly to allow us to work safely.
