How to Select a Natural
Health Practitioner |
How do you choose a Therapist?
The decision to use a natural therapy or alternative medicine is
an important one. As well as the safety and effectiveness of the
therapy, it is important to know the expertise and qualifications
of the health care practitioner.
To be sure that you are receiving the respect and help that you
need, you should make sure that you ask your therapist the
following ten questions:
1. Will I be treated with respect and care?
2. Will I be given a clear treatment plan?
3. Will I be coached by an accredited psychologist?
4. Will I be given user-friendly information?
5. Will I enjoy a friendly environment?
6. Will I be seen on time?
7. Will I be assured of absolute confidentiality?
8. Will I be able to attend after hours?
9. Am I eligible for a Private Health Rebate?
10. Can I negotiate my payment terms?

therapy and alternative medicine for health treatment and relief.
