FRA, also referred to as Cosmetic acupuncture is a treatment based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and involves the insertion of fine, sterile, disposable needles into specific areas of the face, ears, neck, hands, trunk and legs, along channels or meridians of energy. I understand that FRA and Naturopathic medical visits are separate services. I understand that I will not be receiving a full Naturopathic assessment and a Naturopathic medical diagnosis will not be made. I understand that by law, Katelin is not able to discuss or prescribe treatments for any medical conditions or concerns during cosmetic acupuncture visits; and that a separate Naturopathic visit must be booked for this purpose. I understand that any nutritional or natural supplements that are suggested during cosmetic acupuncture treatments are general recommendations that pertain to skin care. I will be told what health conditions cannot be treated adequately with acupuncture alone so that I can make an informative decision on whether to pursue another form of treatment in addition to acupuncture. Other treatments can be pursued with Dr. Parkinson, through her regular Naturopathic visits, or with another healthcare provider. Cosmetic acupuncture is contraindicated if you suffer from the following conditions: • Migraines • Diabetes • Abnormal coagulation (bleeding) disorders such as hemophilia. Constant use of: Aspirin, Fish oil, Vitamin E, certain herbal medicines • Pituitary disorders • Cancer • AIDS • Seizures or Epilepsy • Coronary heart disease • Chronic vertigo/dizziness Cosmetic acupuncture should not be administered during: • Acute herpes (cold sore) outbreaks • Acute allergic reactions • Migraine Headache • Whole body sunburn or facial sunburn • Colds or Flu (other forms of acupuncture can be done to address these symptoms) Patients with high blood pressure should consult their medical or naturopathic doctor before beginning cosmetic acupuncture treatments. Whether successfully medicated or not, this is a condition that may prevent treatment. If you are currently pregnant, think you may be pregnant, or are trying to conceive please let the practitioner know. Acupuncture is safe during pregnancy but certain points must be avoided. Potential side effects include: Pain, bruising, fainting, or injury. Puncturing of an organ is rare but possible. There may be a temporary aggravation of certain symptoms. Fatigue after treatment is common, but should subside. 4 Green Base Health Consulting 22 Water St South, Kitchener ON N2G 4K4 W: www.greenbasehealth.com E: [email protected] T: 519-‐574-‐5151 By signing this consent form, I agree and understand that: •

I understand that if I am diagnosed with any of the above conditions listed as contraindications during my course of treatment with FRA that I will disclose this information to the Dr. Parkinson.
