Most of what people ask, answered here

So you do not have to write to us.

Do I need a referral from my doctor?
No. You can book directly. If you have a referral for a specific plan we will work to it, and if a GP should see you first we will tell you.
How do I book?
Call (03) 9629 4299. Consultations are by appointment. Online booking is coming; today the phone is the fastest route and someone who knows the diary answers it.
How soon can I be seen?
It varies week to week. Ask when you call. We will give you the soonest real appointment rather than a vague answer.
Can I just come to a class?
No, and this is deliberate. Everyone starts with a 45-minute one-to-one assessment so the program fits you and the technique is taught before you are in a room with other people.
What are the three ways it runs?
Individual, group classes, and online. All three run. Which one suits you is decided at your assessment with the instructor.
How many people are in a class?
Capped, deliberately, so the instructor is watching rather than leading. Places must be booked in advance.
