Cautions, Contraindications and Modifications

Abdominal Therapy is a safe and effective treatment but there are a few cautions and contraindications that have to be screened for before treatment as there are some conditions where application of these techniques is either contraindicated or requires modification. Please consult with me before booking if you have any questions.

Contraindications, cautions and modifications may include:

• During active menstruation (we need to avoid the lower abdominal sequence during this time so be mindful of the time in your cycle you’ll be booking in for)

• IUD present

• Immediately after abdominal surgery, until healed and cleared by surgeon

• Cancer present in pelvic area, or while undergoing chemotherapy

• Active and acute infection

• Abdominal Aneurysm

• Pessary for uterine prolapse (remove prior to your session)

• Any serious health condition that causes you concern
