Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="catherinecherub" data-source="post: 147707">I am trained in massage and aromatherapy.I would not treat a patient with diabetes without clearance from their G.P. as sometimes they do not fill out the medical questionnaire properly.  If they have high BP then it is not a good idea as increasing their circulation through massage can increase their BP and if they have neuropathy they may not realize how deep you are massaging.  I would rather be safe than sorry and you have a reputation to think of.  This was included in my training and I had every confidence in my instructor. My Insurance providers are very strict and need clearance from G.P.'s for some of the clients. You will enjoy it as much as the clients and it is very satisfying to know that your treatments can relax people.  I don't profess to cure anything but clients have a feeling of wellbeing afterwards and they all say that they sleep better.</blockquote>
