At Relax Therapy, before a cup meets your skin or a needle reaches one of your points, there is a step no session skips: the Initial Medical Evaluation. It is the gate every new client passes through — not a mere formality, but a calm interview and examination carried out by a licensed physician to decide with you what truly suits your body, which complementary therapy fits, and which must be postponed or refused outright.
Why do we always start with evaluation?
Because a successful session begins with the correct reading, not with enthusiasm. It helps us to:
- Understand your medical history, health conditions and current medications.
- Identify the real location of the complaint, its nature and how it started.
- Reveal any hidden contraindications that could make a session unsafe.
- Choose the most suitable treatment among our cups and techniques.
- Build a clear plan with expected session count and rhythm.
What does the first evaluation include?
| Axis | What happens here? |
|---|---|
| Medical interview | Listening to your history, symptoms and reason for the visit |
| Clinical examination | Observing and assessing the complaint area, range of motion and signs |
| Contraindication review | Checking for conditions that would prevent a specific session |
| Treatment recommendation | Proposing the most suitable session, explaining it and the reason |
| Time planning | Suggesting session count, rhythm and follow-up |
Who needs it specifically?
- The new visitor trying cupping or acupuncture for the first time without prior evaluation.
- Anyone with persistent pain whose cause has not been identified yet.
- Those on long-term medication (like blood thinners) needing a judgment on session suitability.
- Those who had a health event (recent pregnancy, surgery) and wonder whether a session is possible.
- Those who want a follow-up plan for a chronic condition without therapeutic chaos.
How does the physician decide what suits you?
The physician listens first, examines next, then decides by a golden rule: the least invasive treatment that delivers the greatest safe benefit. The result might be trying therapeutic hijama for deep tension, sliding cupping for widespread soreness, Chinese acupuncture where the case fits eastern medicine, or simply referring you to another medical review if what you need lies outside complementary care.
Is evaluation required before every session?
The first evaluation is mandatory for every new client and is kept in your medical file. Later sessions usually need no full re-evaluation — just a quick review of the case and an examination of the points before application. That is what keeps the safety line raised at every visit.
What if the session is not suitable?
We tell you honestly, propose a safe alternative if one exists, or refer you with a clear conscience to the more appropriate medical body. The center may lose an immediate session, but it gains its good name and your trust — that is the investment that lasts.
