Can I use complementary medicine – Chinese herbs, other herbal treatments, acupuncture or reflexology?
Whilst we do not have research to support the benefits of complementary medicine, we acknowledge that many people may want to use them. We would advise against the use of herbal treatments which we know can have an adverse effect, such as Agnus Castus, or treatments whose ingredients are unknown. Physical complementary treatments may be more acceptable, particularly if they reduce stress. We cannot accept responsibility for the effects for any of these treatments but advise that, if you are using them, you attend a qualified practitioner and inform them of treatments you are undergoing at our Centre. We are unable to facilitate complementary medical treatment sessions at the Centre.
