Have a chat with them that you are arranging for a professional to do a check up on their health.
Once they approve, send us their info and we will arrange for a call to speak with them to gather info about their profile and tell them more about the importance of futureproofing one's health.
This is also when we gather info to get a snapshot of their profile.

We do this by building trust.
Schedule in the first session for our exercise therapist for a try-out session.
