What to look for when choosing a practitioner

Now that many of the established alternative medicine treatments have been intensively researched there can be little doubt that therapies such as acupuncture do, indeed work. However the difficulty many people have, is knowing what to look for when searching for a practitioner. In our opinion you should look for the following attributes:

Experience: – we would recommend that you see a practitioner with at least 5 years experience as a professional practitioner, and that they have experience in treating the condition that you that you are going with.

Qualifications and Registration:- check that your practitioner is registered with one of the main national registers, and that they are properly qualified, and have not just attended a short one or two weekend course.

Free Initial Consultations:- Does the practitioner offer a free initial consultation to see if you feel comfortable in receiving treatment from that person? In our experience, you will have better results from your treatments when you feel relaxed and confident with the practitioner you are seeing.
