RE: What do you keep your bits n peices in?

Hi there - I bought a baby box from Mothercare. It has a large compartment and a tray which slides back when the lid is opened. Cheap and useful if you can stand the colour - pale blue. The tray is handy for the smaller odds and things, and the box part of it is tall enough to take any containers you might have.

I only use it for visiting clients and not in the treatment room. This means it is always on hand.

Hope this helps

hi angel eyes, i use a travel case on wheels for visiting clients. It has room for towels, compartments with zips for cotton wool, talc and lotions etc, plus will hold paperwork, client files. Handle extends for pushing if it should be too heavy to carry, everything in one place.

At home I keep my wipes ,creams etc in a plastic basket on the table, all my files are in a lockable metal file I got from Woolworths.

I have got a nice vanityshoulder bag I kept things in for home visits but it all weighed too much by the time you struggle with the chair etc, especially in flats, so now I only take wipes and oil in a plastic bag inside the beach type bag I take my towel and pillow, appointment book in. You dont need to take much around with you really. Be minimalistic.

I've used a number of things for mobile, and my favourite is a shoe shine bag that I got from woolworths. It has a handle, when you zip it open it has a large deep pocket which I keep:

1. a small glass container (old cinnamon jar from sainsburys) of talc
2. a little bag of wipes (suitable for little bottoms)
3. a flip lid 50ml plastic bottle with oil in it
4. a travel-size squirty foot freshener
5. a travel-size foot cream

It also has a side pocket in which I keep:

1. a ceramic square dish (to place used wipes)
2. a tealight holder, tealight and lighter
3. some folded up couch paper

RE: What do you keep your bits n peices in?

I have a tall wardrobe 50cm wide which I keep everything in neatly.

For client visits, if I am taking the couch I use the pocket in the front of the couch.
If I take the lafuma for my reflex (answered your q in the end) or other treatments I use a bag I bought from WHSmith for a tenner, has lots of compartments, one for my lotions and towels, another at the back for paperwork and others for pens, I keep my purse and keys separate for hygiene reasons, so this kind of does it all.
For EFT clients or those where I don't need equipment I have a small bag thing from WHSmith again (ok I admit it they had a sale on and they both were just what I was looking for) which incorporates a clip board for my paperwork and a little compartment for pens and such.

When treating at home I use a small stool as a table with a tray of goodies on it, the wipes etc.. and the bin nearby so I can chuck stuff right out as I go.

I tend to leave lotions and such in their own containers unless it's one of my own blends, this is so the client knows exactly what I am using if they are interested. They can check the brand and ingredients then.

Thanks guys... I'm looking for something for when I go mobile.

Don't any of you take things like plasters, small first aid kit, sweets for diabetics????

obviously not! ha ha

no, I only take what is necessary and if possible what is pleasing to look at.

One of my pet hates, is seeing therapists and beauty therapists using:
* scruffy bottles with labels torn off
* handwritten labels
* dirty bottles
* a mismatch of things (I prefer to see the same brand being used)
* baby wipes in the baby wipe container
