Why is your clinic scent-free? What does that mean?

We strive to ensure the comfort and safety of staff and visitors by encouraging a scent-free environment, and ask that you refrain from using or applying cologne, perfume, aftershave lotions, fragranced hair products, or scented body washes and lotions prior to coming t the clinic for your treatments. The use of such products may trigger allergic reactions in some sensitive patients who are chemically sensitive to fragrances and other scented products, and could possibly create health problems. In addition, the wearing of scented products will interfere with your diagnosis, because Traditional Chinese Medicine uses smell as a diagnosis tool, along with checking your pulse and tongue, and a number of other observational tools.
