A measuring appointment, not a treatment

The paperwork to order the medical-grade garment is completed during the session. The wait is approximately three to four weeks, and Saarah will be in touch to arrange your fitting once the garment arrives.

Good to know
Medical considerations
A few things to be aware of before booking. If in doubt, get in touch and we'll advise.
This appointment is measurement only — no treatment is carried out in it.
Tell us about any skin sensitivity, allergy or open wounds in the area before measuring begins.
If you have a previous lycra garment, please bring this with you to the appointment.
FAQs
Questions, answered
Is any treatment included?+
No. This is a measuring appointment. If you also want the swelling treated, that is the lymphoedema treatment and is booked separately.
Why does it take an hour?+
Custom garments are made to measurements taken at set points along the limb, and an inaccurate one produces a garment that does not help or does not get worn.
Should I bring my current garment?+
Yes, if you have one. How it fits and how it has worn is useful information, and its size and make save guesswork.
Do you order the garment for me?+
The paperwork needed for ordering is prepared in the appointment, so the order can be placed without a second visit.
What if my skin is broken or irritated?+
Tell us when you book. It changes what can be measured comfortably and may change what is ordered.
