Holistic & Complementary Insurance FAQs

info@salongold.co.uk

What is holistic & complementary therapy?

Holistic & complementary therapies differ from conventional treatments: they consider the whole person’s being, including their mind, body and spirit, rather than concentrating on individual symptoms.

Therapists may use a range of treatments to improve the health and wellbeing of a client. This might be through relaxation, visual imagery and other bodywork methods like yoga, therapeutic touch and Reiki. It can be hugely beneficial for issues such as addiction, depression, and anxiety.

Do holistic & complementary therapists need insurance?

As a holistic therapist you’ll face multiple risks at work, so insurance is essential in order to protect your business from reputational and financial damage. While you might think your activities are safe, accidents happen, which is why a policy will be a blessing in the future should anything go wrong.

For example, if you offer massage therapy, which requires close, personal contact, having the right insurance will protect you from any lawsuits that occur from accidental injury to a client. Overall, holistic & complementary insurance covers you if a customer makes a compensation claim against you.

How much is complementary therapist insurance?

The cost of your complementary therapist insurance depends on the type of treatments you offer and the cover you need. For public liability and malpractice insurance (the most important covers), Salon Gold’s prices start from just £52.04 per year. However, this will increase if you carry out more advanced treatments or decide you require more covers, such as stock and equipment, financial loss and personal accident insurance.

Do I need to keep client records as a complementary therapist?

Keeping client records is important as it allows you to stay up-to-date with the previous treatments and issues your customers may have had. Not only will this give returning customers a sense of confidence, it will also be invaluable if someone makes a claim against you regarding your practices. Such information will provide a strong defence if necessary. Learn more about keeping client records as a complementary therapist below:
