WOMEN
-
During active menstruation (from about day 4 of bleed is okay to receive) we do not massage the womb, or within days of your period being due. Treatments are done either side of your period. If you are unsure of where you are in your cycle, it is best to have your next period then book in a day or so after your period finishes right up until 4-5 days before your period is due to start again. If you are actively try to conceive, do not make booking after ovulation in case of pregnancy. For classic 28 day cycle a good time to come is from approximately day 4 of cycle through until day 10 (or your ovulation). It is a good idea to track your cycle for a period of time to become familiar with timings and stages.
