Frequently Asked Questions

Regulation varies. Registered dietitians are regulated by the HCPC, while many complementary practitioners belong to voluntary registers and professional bodies — such as the British Acupuncture Council or BANT for nutritional therapists — rather than statutory regulators. Look for membership of a recognised body.
Some people do, but complementary therapies are not a replacement for medical care. Keep your GP informed, continue any prescribed treatment, and tell both your doctor and therapist about everything you are using, as some supplements can interact with medicines.
Look for membership of a recognised professional register, honest descriptions of what a therapy involves (without claims to cure illness), and appropriate professional insurance and hygiene standards.
