Therap-Ease is looking forward to what 2021will bring?

2020 is almost over... what a quick and very different year it has been. In the clinic here in Morningside, Edinburgh we adapted our services to be COVID secure for all our clients, staff and therapists. The team adapted swiftly to ensure our services could return and it has brought us closer together.

We hope later in 2021 we will be able to have our door open and create that friendly welcome we were so used to in the clinic. We say farewell to Fiona our lovely receptionist who is taking early retirement. She will be missed but not forgotten and we hope she takes full advantage of her time and enjoys her free time to the full. We welcome Helen to the reception team and know that she will be an excellent addition to the friendly efficient team we have.

Our MSK Physios based here in Edinburgh have enjoyed and learnt a lot from conducting the telephone and virtual consultations. We strongly believe these types of consultation triages will continue to have a place in 2021 when restrictions ease. Those who travel for business or who are on holiday when they injure themselves, will be able to arrange a virtual call to get immediate advice on best recovery before they are even back in Edinburgh. A face to face can then be arranged for when they return. Virtual or face to face one to one Pilates sessions will give our clients options of what works best for them and all of their busy schedules. Jill, Ruth and Jacqui are all experienced first contact practitioners and you do not need to see the GP prior to attending the clinic. The NHS services are still catching up and we can get you on the right track to recovery and make you the best you can be.

Podiatrist Alex Duran is a welcome addition to the clinic and has been able to extend his hours in the clinic in 2021- routine chiropody sessions in addition to Specialising in making bespoke orthotics. The bi-disciplinary addition of having a Podiatrist input with the Physiotherapists has many benefits to clients care. Sharing knowledge and learning from each others professions is invaluable.

Sports Massage continues to thrive in the clinic and is a service that Edinburgh clients really enjoy for post exercise recovery to maintaining health and mobility. Peter and his team, Mio, Dana and Ailsa have appointments available 6 days a week from early morning to late evening.

Nutritionist Pauline is Consulting Virtually and this is a perfect time for a DIET MOT or a rebalance of what food and eating plan works best for you.

2021 will hopefully see a full reopening of our electronic booking system which currently has limited services on there to book without phoning the clinic on 0131 447 9990. We will let you know as soon as our Professional Bodies and Government ease the restrictions we are all currently working under.

All from Therap-Ease would like to wish all the best for the upcoming year to our loyal, kind, caring and friendly clients. We have all really appreciated your support and understanding in 2020 and look forward to seeing you in 2021.
