Clinic reflection

13/12 Oh dear - a male returning patient who does not wear underwear "because of his eczema, " but he was asked not to return without wearing something. He "doesn't mind" - but I do. I'm taking no chances and his trousers remain on. I know it's wrong, but I hope he doesn't come back. I gave the best treatment I could and also practiced a couple of the techniques from the interconnected tissue course that I haven't used in a while. Good for him, good for me!


10/12 Today I saw a nice old lady who wouldn't remove any of her clothes! I had to soft tissue the LES and glutei through a full skirt, over a slippery underskirt and tights. I doubt that this was in any way effective and the session seemed to drag on forever. I didn't say anything to her, but now I wish I had. I need to address these issues for the comfort of patients. Then they can make a decision after I have at least made my suggestion and explained the advantages.
