Medical Conditions

There are some medical conditions that are contra-indicated, such as if you have being treated for surgery, or have a medical history which could affect your treatment.
This means that we may need to obtain permission from your GP, consultant or other medical practitioner before carrying out treatment, or may avoid certain areas of the body during treatment.
As a responsible team of professional therapists, it is very important to us that you are safe at all times when using our facilities or receiving treatments. Therefore conditions that may be contra-indicated are listed below, but this is not a comprehensive list and you should enquire about specific conditions prior to treatment.

Pregnancy

Please be aware that if you are pregnant it is not advisable to use our steam room or hydrotherapy pool.
We ask that you make us aware of your pregnancy at the time of booking so we can ensure your treatments are most suitable for you and make you aware of any contra-indications.
Please note that if you are experiencing a healthy pregnancy and over 12 weeks, you do not need to supply a Midwife Note if having just pregnancy recommended treatments.
Treatments can only be carried out once you are more than 12 weeks pregnant. You must bring along a Midwife or Doctors note to enable you to use the Spa facilities, or if you are experiencing difficulties within your pregnancy.

To ensure that all guests are offered the right care and treatments we will ask you to fill out a consultation form during your visit to Chapel Spa. Our staff will be happy to discuss any special needs or concerns you may have.
It is a client’s responsibility to raise medical conditions with us at the time of booking, so that we can confirm the requested treatment is not contra-indicated and to prevent your full payment being lost.
