Should I tip an alternative therapist in the UK?

Question

If I am going to an alternative therapist for a treatment like Reiki or Crystal healing etc in the UK should I tip them or just pay the fee stated?

Many thanks!

Answer 1

You can tip them if you want but it shouldn't be expected. Just pay them a fee.

If you are especially happy with the results or it is a special time of year such as XMAS as tip or something like a bottle of wine may be appropriate but for a normal everyday visit I wouldn't.

Answer 2

I wouldn't bother tipping them, it's only throwing more of your money down the toilet. Go to a real doctor!

Answer 3

nahh dont tip them

just pay them the fee

Answer 4

after you go to them and you don't get proper help your looking for, check this website out and give them a call www.drsebi.com. And if you want to tip the UK dudes that remains to be seen, I wouldn't tip bad service.

Answer 5

alternative medicine is gaining acceptance, wherein the cost is very reasonable and mostly no side effects and  Ur  trust is 80% and impact of medicine is 20%.

even in allopathic medical education, for every disease condition, appendix with alternative medicine is a must. best wishes from www.saioam.com

Answer 6

A waitress is more qualified than one of these quacks, so I don't think a tip is appropriate.

Answer 7

I am a therapist offering Reiki, crystal healing, Indian Head Massage and the like and I wouldn't expect to be tipped.

Answer 8

Just pay the fee.

I wouldn't expect a tip from my patients.
