Your health and wellness is our only concern
I have been horrified lately by a number of stories that women have told me about examinations that they have had when visiting some health care practices.
Many were asked to remove all their clothes and stand in their underwear, one was even asked to take her underwear off.
I know that I would be utterly embarrassed and that this is mostly unnecessary.
Very importantly we want to look after you. This is why we only ask you to remove clothing that is necessary, keep on clothes that protect your modesty and ask women to always wear a gown for examinations.
We only ask women to change for examinations and progress examinations, not for adjustment visits. Typically women wear loose skirts, trousers or leggings under the gown because we want you to be as comfortable as possible when you are with us.
We provide a safe private area to change in and a cleanly washed gown every time.
If you are sensitive about your body then the important news is that you are not alone. Very few of us have a perfect body and most of the time we want to know that we will not be on show when come for examinations.
Chiropractic care helps to find those aspects of your body that are not working well and help you to make changes. This means perhaps feeling motivated to exercise more, possibly to lose weight and to improve your muscle tone.
Don’t wait to be perfect to come for chiropractic care; know that we will do everything we can to look after your modesty and to help you feel safe and accepted.
Who do you know who has put off chiropractic care because they are worried about their body?
