[Jen [Ghoast Kitteh]]

Hi,

I am new to this board so hello to everyone....

I am in a real muddle at the moment. I am not sure about how to set the case studies out properly etc for reflexology vtct level 3 diploma.

Can anyone send me some help such as an example or template would be truly grateful.

Thanks

Hello There.... And Welcome...
Im also studying ReflexologyV.T.C.Tlevel 3 at Chichester College, West Sussex. Ive done other courses as wellso im pretty upto date on how case studies gothere not that bad once you get into them.... also there are quite a few links on this forum,and dont forget there are so many books out there that are full of lots of different information.

Here goes

Clients History... Write all about the client ie job, stress levels, children, hobbies etc.
Medical Details....Write all about clients health,Present state of health?Anyprevious illnesses? Any Contraindications? Do you need doctors consent?
Aims of Treatment...What the client wants from the treatment> To relax, etc
Treatment Plan... What you as a therapist would like to do> Spend more time on problem areas, Make sure client is relaxed...
Week one .... Write how the treatment went? How the client was? How you can improve the treatment ...get client to fill in client Questionaire/feedback form. Offer after care advice/leaflet.
Week two....Revise consultation form. Ask how client week went? Any Reactions? Make Notes
three,four,five,six...As above.

If the client has any problems, perhaps research into them and offer further help...ie diet,exercise etc.

Summary/Outcome...Write how you think the six week treatment went.. If any of the clientsProblem areas got better/ worse. Did client like the treatment? What you gained from it?

Im sure ive missed something out but i Hope thishelps...
Perhaps your Tutor could help you.

Good Luck

Hi,
I'd agree with all of the above, plus maybe considerations to the client, for instance adapting the routine because they are young, or adapting the way you treat them because of mobility?
With reflexology I tried to not down all the things that I found, under a heading of Therapist's findings, for instance, small gristle area in shoulder area of right foot and then note down whether hte client had any problems there or what I might do about it.

Hope you get on okay.
