Ist eine von der ASCA oder dem EMR anerkannte Ausbildung in der Dunkelfeldmikroskopie Voraussetzung für eine Tätigkeit als Dunkelfeldtherapeut?
Is training in dark field microscopy recognized by the ASCA or the EMR a prerequisite for working as a dark field therapist?
No. Recognition by ASCA and/or EMR is important for the participation of health insurance companies in the treatment costs.
Whether you are allowed to work with a particular therapy does not depend on ASCA/EMR, but on the canton in which you wish to practice. In the case of "dark field therapy", which is not a therapy but a diagnostic method, it depends on which medical or naturopathic method you wish to use.
You must also note that the blood sample required for dark-field microscopy must be taken by a conventional medical specialist.
Information on the cantonal regulations in the field of alternative medicine can be foundhere.
