What to Expect at Your First Wellness Clinic Appointment

Walking into a wellness clinic for the first time can feel uncertain, especially when you are not entirely sure what the treatments involve or which one is right for you. This guide removes the uncertainty. By the time you finish reading, you will know exactly what happens at Clutter Clearing Colonics from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave.

Your Initial Consultation with Sara

Every first appointment begins with a seated, one-on-one conversation with Sara. This is not a clipboard questionnaire. It is a genuine discussion about your health, your symptoms and what brought you to the clinic. Sara will ask about your digestive patterns (frequency, consistency, comfort of bowel movements), any specific symptoms you are experiencing (bloating, fatigue, skin issues, puffiness, constipation), your health history including medications and any relevant conditions, your lifestyle (diet, activity level, stress, sleep), and what you are hoping to achieve from the treatment.

This conversation typically takes 10 to 15 minutes and serves two purposes: it gives Sara the information she needs to personalise the treatment to your body, and it gives you the opportunity to ask every question on your mind before anything clinical begins. First-time visitors often arrive with a list of concerns, and Sara addresses every one. There is no such thing as a question that is too basic, too personal or too embarrassing. She has heard them all and welcomes the chance to put your mind at ease.

Choosing Your Treatment

Clutter Clearing Colonics offers three core treatments. If you are unsure which to book, Sara will recommend the best starting point during the consultation, or you can discuss it beforehand via a free phone consultation.

Colonic Irrigation

$170

75 min. Best for: bloating, constipation, gut health, internal cleansing. Learn more →

Lymphatic Drainage

RESET Detox

$270

2 hours. Best for: combined digestive and fluid symptoms. Both treatments in one session. Learn more →

What Happens During Your Session

Regardless of which treatment you choose, the session takes place in a private, single-client room that is warm, calm and purpose-built for these treatments. Sara is the only practitioner, so you will never encounter another client in the space.

For colonic irrigation, you undress from the waist down (Sara leaves the room), position yourself on the treatment bed under a sheet, and the treatment proceeds with purified water cycling and abdominal massage for approximately 45 to 60 minutes of active treatment time. The sealed drainage system means there is no mess, no odour and no need to leave the bed until the session is complete. For the detailed step-by-step walkthrough, see our first-timer's colonic guide.

For lymphatic drainage, you remain clothed in lightweight, comfortable clothing (or undress to your comfort level) while Sara performs the Vodder-method MLD technique across the treatment areas. The session is deeply relaxing, with many clients entering a meditative or sleep-like state within the first 15 minutes.

For the RESET Package, the lymphatic drainage session happens first (50 minutes), followed by the colonic irrigation (60 minutes). Sara manages the transition seamlessly, and the two-hour appointment includes everything with no gap between treatments.

How to Prepare

The preparation is simple. Eat lightly in the 2 to 3 hours before your appointment. Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours beforehand. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. Arrive 5 minutes early so you are settled rather than rushing. For detailed dietary preparation, see the preparation and aftercare guide.

There is no special diet, fasting requirement or pre-treatment product needed. Sara handles everything else when you arrive.

After Your Appointment

Sara concludes every session with personalised aftercare guidance. This includes specific dietary recommendations for the next 24 to 48 hours (what to eat, what to avoid, hydration targets), what physical sensations to expect as your body adjusts to the treatment, and when to schedule your next session based on your individual response and goals.

Most first-time visitors describe leaving with a noticeably lighter sensation, clearer head and a sense of calm that they did not expect. Many also report that the experience was far more comfortable and far less confronting than they had anticipated. Sara's most common first-visit feedback is some variation of "I wish I had done this sooner." For any questions that arise after your session, Sara is available by phone or message. View all treatment options and check our FAQ page for additional details.

The most important thing to know: Sara's clinic exists to support you, not to pressure you. If you arrive and decide during the consultation that you are not ready for treatment, that is completely fine. If you want to start with the gentlest option and build from there, that is the recommended approach. Your first visit sets the foundation for an ongoing therapeutic relationship, and Sara would rather you leave feeling informed and comfortable than treated and uncertain.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens at my first appointment?

Sara begins with a 10-15 minute health consultation covering your symptoms, history, lifestyle and goals. She then recommends the most appropriate treatment, administers the session personally, and concludes with tailored aftercare guidance. The entire experience is private, unhurried and designed to make first-time visitors feel informed and comfortable throughout.

How do I know which treatment to choose?

Digestive concerns (bloating, constipation, heaviness) → colonic irrigation. Fluid concerns (puffiness, swelling, immune sluggishness) → lymphatic drainage. Both → RESET Package. If you are genuinely unsure, the free phone consultation before booking lets Sara recommend the right starting point based on your specific symptoms without any obligation to commit.
