Relaxing New Patient Jitters ~ Part 1

You're new to my practice, you have heard some things about my work, you may be a friend of one of my patients or a relative. You text me and I return a request for a private phone conversation with you. You think, " This is odd, everybody texts these days."

It is my policy to want to hear your voice, what do you sound like, how do you express your interest. I am listening for many things:

• What am I hearing? Do I sense apprehension?

• Are you hesitant to ask questions?

• Are you tired? Anxious?

• Are you really up and ready for this session because you know Craniosacral therapy is just what you need!

• I am also beginning to diagnose your case by listening to your voice! Isn't that cool?

  
  

  This is why I request you to call and we speak directly. You are able to tell me what it is you need, why, how it kind of got that way, toss in a little frustration. I am able to create options in my mind about what I am able to do to help you. I can condense these options into relatable possible solutions in my mind, briefly share them with you, and give you options about your first session together. You have HOPE now!

And the most important step? You made the choice to CALL, to speak directly, person to person. That was a very important part of your healing. You took the first step!

Congratulations!

Part Two coming soon!
