As an aromatherapist, you’re responsible for using holistic healing treatments to promote wellbeing.
Your treatment primarily uses essential oils from natural plant extracts such as flowers, seeds, barks and roots which are known to have both physical and emotional benefits, helping to improve the health of the body, mind and spirit. Unfortunately, some essential oils may not be suitable for everyone. If you fail to identify this, and the customer were to suffer an adverse reaction to an oil resulting in a claim against you, the rewarding nature of your job can be dampened if you don’t have a robust insurance policy in place to protect you from this.
As one of the UK’s leading aromatherapy insurance providers, we’ll provide £6m public liability, product liability and treatment liability cover to protect you in the event a compensation claim were to be made against you. Using our simple quote and buy system you can be immediately covered from the moment you purchase insurance for aromatherapy through Professional Beauty Direct.
We understand that you do your job out of a passion to help others feel better. To ensure you can devote your time and energy to delivering a relaxing and therapeutic service, and so it remains rewarding, our aromatherapy insurance will take away any stresses or worries should something go wrong. You will have the protection of a great insurance policy looking after your specific needs as an aromatherapist.
Our aromatherapy insurance policy includes £6m public liability, product liability and treatment liability cover, as standard.
The Professional Beauty Direct Thai massage policy includes £6 million in public liability, product liability and treatment liability cover.
We can also provide cover at an additional cost for kit and equipment cover and teacher training insurance.
As an aromatherapist, you’ll frequently use some of the following oils:
These essential oils can be used in various ways including application directly to the skin through massages and lotions, as well as be added to diffusers, vaporisers, facial steamers and oil burners. When using heated oils, hot water and candles there is a risk of you burning or scalding a customer’s skin and causing injury by accident.
Based on your client’s symptoms, conditions and requirements, you’ll select an essential oil(s) designed to enhance their well-being. Unfortunately, if you fail to thoroughly understand your client’s medical history, lifestyle and health problems, you could use essential oils which could be harmful to their health. Essential oils aren’t appropriate for everyone, especially if your clients are;
epileptic;
diabetic;
asthmatic;
pregnant;
have sensitive skin;
suffer from allergies;
have high blood pressure;
have a type of cancer;
It is also harmful to swallow or put essential oils inside your body such as your eye, nostril or ear as they can be toxic.
If your client suffers an injury or allergic reaction as a result of your treatment or suffers from any of the side effects above, they could make a claim against you. This can be particularly damaging to the livelihood of your business if you don’t have insurance in place to protect you.
