For example, the use of acupuncture and manipulation in medicine and physiotherapy. Interestingly the yellow pages advertises aromatherapy, reflexology and Indian Head Massage being offered by local physiotherapy clinics. I wonder, is it only acceptable for members of the Health Professions Council to use these techniques? I noticed that the adverts carefully avoided suggesting what conditions these therapies are used for.
