What to Expect in Your First Consultation at Be Superhuman
Every treatment guide on this site mentions the same thing, every visit starts with a consultation.
It’s come up so often that it’s worth actually explaining properly, since “consultation” can sound more clinical and formal than what it actually is, and a fair number of people put off booking simply because they’re not sure what they’ll be asked or expected to know already.
Here’s exactly what happens, so there’s nothing left to wonder about.
Why We Start Here, Every Time
We don’t run a walk-in, pick-a-treatment-off-a-menu model, and that’s deliberate. Everyone arrives with a different starting point, different goals, different health considerations, different levels of familiarity with treatments like cryotherapy or HBOT.
A proper conversation before anything happens means whatever you end up booking actually fits you, rather than defaulting to whatever sounded most appealing online.
What We Actually Ask
The consultation is a genuine conversation, not a formal assessment you can get wrong. We’ll ask what’s brought you in, whether that’s a specific goal, general curiosity, or something you’ve been dealing with that you’re hoping to address.
We’ll talk through your general health and lifestyle, your activity levels, how you’re sleeping, anything relevant that might affect which treatments suit you best.
If you’re completely new to all of this, that’s genuinely fine, you don’t need to have done any research beforehand or know which treatment you want.
Plenty of people arrive with nothing more specific than “I’ve heard good things and want to feel better,” and that’s a perfectly reasonable starting point.
What Happens With That Information
Once we’ve got a proper picture of what you’re dealing with and what you’re hoping to achieve, we’ll talk through which treatments actually make sense, and just as importantly, which ones probably don’t fit right now.
If you’re after a fast energy lift, we’re not going to steer you toward an hour-long HBOT session as your first visit unless there’s a good reason to. If you’re dealing with heavy legs from a long commute, compression therapy is a more obvious starting point than cryotherapy.
This is also when any health considerations that might affect a particular treatment get properly flagged.
Certain conditions mean specific treatments aren’t suitable, or need a bit more care in how they’re approached, and this is exactly the point in the process where that gets caught, before you’re mid-session rather than after.
How Long It Actually Takes
A first consultation typically takes somewhere between fifteen and thirty minutes, depending on how much there is to talk through.
It’s not a rushed five-minute form-filling exercise, but it’s also not an hour-long deep dive, just enough time for us to properly understand your situation and for you to ask anything you’re genuinely unsure about.
Do You Need to Prepare Anything?
Not really. It helps to have a general sense of what you’re hoping to get out of visiting, more energy, better recovery, help with a specific issue, but you don’t need a fully formed plan.
If you’re taking any regular medication or managing an ongoing health condition, it’s worth having that in mind so you can mention it, but there’s no paperwork to complete beforehand.
What Happens After the Consultation
Depending on what we’ve talked through, you might move straight into your first treatment on the same visit, or book in for a session on a different day if that suits your schedule better.
Either way, you’ll leave with an actual plan, not just a treatment booked, but a reasonable sense of what to expect and roughly how often it makes sense to come back, based on what you’re actually trying to achieve.
Why This Matters More Than It Might Seem
A rushed or skipped consultation tends to lead to people trying a treatment that doesn’t quite fit what they needed, and coming away underwhelmed as a result, not because the treatment itself doesn’t work, but because it wasn’t the right one for their specific situation.
Taking the time to get this right at the start is genuinely one of the biggest factors in whether people end up building a routine that actually helps them, rather than a one-off visit that doesn’t lead anywhere.
Book Yours
If you’ve been putting off visiting simply because you weren’t sure what the first step involved, hopefully this makes it clear there’s nothing to prepare for beyond showing up and having an honest conversation.
Book your consultation and we’ll take it from there.
