What if I am seeing another practitioner?
If you are receiving any complementary medical treatment, it makes sense to tell your practitioner about your plans to have acupuncture.
If you are already in acupuncture treatment and intend to continue seeing that practitioner, unless your visit is for an emergency treatment, please inform your current practitioner and gain their written permission before attending our clinic. If you arrive without this permission, our practitioners will not be able to see you. We are very happy for your own practitioner to accompany you when you come for a diagnosis and consultation – in fact practitioners often ask to bring their patients if they need some clarification as to treatment protocols, particular treatment issues etc. When you book, please tell us the name of the practitioner who will be accompanying you.
If you have decided to change acupuncture practitioners, it is courteous to have clearly finished with your previous practitioner before coming for an appointment at our clinic.
