Rationale

Alma Entera has the referral systems in place for new male clients due to the importance of improving safety when lone working. Massage is sometimes misconstrued due to its close contact nature and the referral systems allow practitioners to remain safe whilst providing the upmost professional service.

Alma Entera aims to uphold gender equality and welcome clients of all genders. The aim is not to disadvantage males from seeking treatment they so very need. However, there is no UK law that implements who therapists must work with and the above measures aim to keep therapists, and clients alike, safe in a trusted environment to promote relaxation and healing. Alma Entera maintains that all individuals of all genders have a right to treatment and wellbeing.

Should you have any questions, comments or feedback on the referral process, please feel free to send a message to contact@almaentera.com
We endeavour to respond to all e-mails within 3 working days.
