Complementary Therapists Insurance

Our specialist team has many years’ experience of providing professional liability insurance for over 200 different complementary therapies.

We work with a broad range of organisations, from sole practitioners through to limited companies.

Instant cover can usually be arranged with just one phone call.

Howden policy highlights

We offer limits of £1.5 million, £3 million, or £5 million, together with a standard Public Liability element of £10 million.

Civil Liability cover gives you protection against claims arising from provision of training or supervision.

We can provide up to £50,000 protection against dishonesty, in case your business suffers a financial loss because of a dishonest employee with malicious intent.

If one of your clients is dissatisfied with your services and refuses to pay or requests a refund, the policy can cover this, where we believe withdrawing the demand for payment will help avoid a civil claim for a larger amount.

Cover for up to £5,000 of compensation fees if you are ordered by a court or tribunal to release confidential information.

We provide protection against complaints and accusations made against you to your regulatory board.

So that you are protected against post-hoc claims for up to 6 years after you cease practicing. 

Senior staff can claim up to £80,000 in protection against claims of negligence, to cover defence costs and damages.

Please ensure that whatever method you use is secure and confidential.
