We understand the concerns that you may have about sharing your personal information; this page tells you about the data we collect, why we collect it, how it’s used and who it might be shared with.

Before your initial assessment, you will be asked for:
- Your name and address to help us identify your records. We will add this to every document we hold for you.
- The name of your GP.
- An emergency contact for you.
- Details of your medical history from which we can ensure that massage therapy is appropriate for you.
- In your own words, any conditions of pain you’re currently experiencing.
We will:
- assess and record your range of movement.
- Agree with you a massage strategy plan and note it.
- For subsequent massages, record changes over time.
- Record any advice we give you.

This assessment forms part of your client record. We will ask you to sign your assessment forms to give us permission to work on you.
Why do you keep my Client Records?
Your personal details, assessment forms and client record all form part of your treatment history. Keepin these gives us a record of massage therapies we’ve performed for you, helps us review your progress and helps plan further treatments.
