Six questions, six clear answers

Do I need a prescription from a doctor?

Answer
For physiotherapy, manual therapy, lymphatic drainage and massage billed to a statutory or private insurer, yes -- a practice may only bill these against a prescription. Without one you are welcome as a self-payer, for preventive training, a posture assessment or a single massage. We clarify what makes sense in your case beforehand; if a prescription is needed, we say so before an appointment is booked.
