The Student Clinic - What to Consider

 

• Please note our Student Clinic is on the 2nd floor. There is no passenger lift in our building.

​

• This is a multi-bedded clinic, where cubicles are separated by a curtain. 

​

• Please note that we are unable to offer any separate treatment spaces.

​

• Our Student Practitioners frequently incorporate moxa into their treatments.  If you do not wish to have moxa as part of your treatment, please let your Student Practitioner know.

​

• Please remember that, although you may choose to not have moxa as part of your treatment, Patients in adjacent curtained cubicles will be having moxa treatments, so there will always be moxa in the air. 

​

• If you feel that you will not be comfortable in a room where moxa is in the air, then you may wish to reconsider whether a multi-bedded open Clinic is the right setting for you. 

​​

• Your Student Practitioner may be male or female. The fully qualified Supervisor, who may be male or female, might also come into your cubicle. There may be one or two further Students on Clinical Observation training days, and these also may be male or female*.*Please note: We are not able to guarantee a male or a female Student Practitioner and/or a male or a female Supervisor. All Patients must book their appointments on this basis, and agree that they accept this information.

​

• Appointments will take approximately 90-120 minutes. ​​

​

• Please read Informed Consent and our GDPR policy when making the booking.  

​

• Acupuncture requires a Patient to remove or loosen various items of clothing, but your modesty will be preserved at all times.

​

• We do not provide towels to cover Patients during treatments. If you feel you prefer to use a towel/shawl/pashmina during your treatment, please do bring your own towel/shawl/pashmina with you to your appointment.
