Most conditions require a course of four to six treatments.
The initial consultation is free. Treatments cost £30-£35 per half hour and £35-£40 per hour. Herbal tea costs £35 for a week's supply.
Yes it is recommended but you can try and get an appointment on the day. Dr Yao will always give you immediate advice and arrange treatment for you.
