Using this website

The content of this website is for general information only. You are welcome to contact us for more specific information and advice.

Prices and orders

Prices quoted exclude delivery.

When you place an order online you should receive an automated email from Stripe or PayPal to confirm they are processing your payment, and another automated email from us to acknowledge your order and give you an order number.

We will then check and process your order. We reserve the right not to accept an order. 

If we do not accept your order, for example because we do not have enough stock or a workshop is full, we will tell you in writing and we will not charge you. We expect these occasions to be rare.

Your order is accepted when we dispatch your products or confirm your booking. Acceptance of your order will create a contract between us and we will send you a full sales invoice.

We aim to complete our side of all contracts within 30 days, although we are usually much quicker.

Delivery

Our standard delivery charge is £3.99. This covers Royal Mail second-class delivery of a small package up to 2kg, delivered to any single address in the UK. We expect this to be sufficient for most consumer orders. If your order is larger than that, you are welcome to contact us before placing it, or we may contact you about delivery method and any charges.

Unless special arrangements are made between us we cannot guarantee delivery by a particular date and are not legally responsible for delivery by a particular date.

Delivery and orders outside the UK

Deliveries to European countries are charged at a standard rate of £9.99. This covers Royal Mail International Tracked delivery of a small package of up  to 2kg, delivered to any single address in the EU.

Deliveries to the Rest of the World are charged at a standard rate of £14.99. This covers Royal Mail International Tracked delivery of a small package of up to 2kg, delivered to any single address.

Unless special arrangements are made between us we cannot guarantee delivery by a particular date and are not legally responsible for delivery by a particular date.

You will be responsible for the goods from dispatch and for payment of all import duties and other charges.

Legal jurisdiction

We are registered in England and Wales and all dealings with us are governed by the laws of England and Wales.

Even if you or your delivery location is outside the UK, we will not accept liability under any laws that apply outside England and Wales.

Any legal action against us must be brought within England and Wales.

Products

We source our own products and from time to time we may make adjustments or improvements. There may sometimes be minor variations between the products or packaging pictured and those supplied. If these minor variations are not acceptable to you, you can return goods under your cooling off / changing your mind rights.

Cooling off / changing your mind rights

You can change your mind about an order you’ve placed or a product you’ve received. If you change your mind please let us know as soon as possible by email to info@paincareclinic.co.uk.

If you inform us before dispatch of an item, we will not send out the product.

If you change your mind after you’ve received an item, you must inform us within 14 days of receiving it that you wish to cancel your order. After that, you have a further 14 days to return the item to us.

All items returned must be unused, in their original undamaged packaging and capable of re-sale. You are responsible for looking after an item while it remains with you.

You are also responsible for returning an item to us. This includes choosing an appropriate method of return, and paying the costs of return and any insurance against loss or damage, if you wish to take this out.

We will confirm by email when returned items have been received by us and whether the condition is acceptable for a refund. Assuming it is, we will authorise a refund without quibble. We will refund the price and any standard delivery charges you paid.

For appointments and workshops the situation is slightly different, see below.

Faulty products

As well as having cooling off rights or rights to change your mind about an order, consumers also have statutory rights in relation to faulty products. By faulty products, we mean products with serious defects or products that are not as described or are not fit for their purpose.

You can return faulty products and ask for either a replacement or a full refund.

If you intend to return a faulty product, please let us know by email as soon as you realise the product is faulty, as this can affect whether you are entitled to a refund or a replacement.

Once you have notified us that the product is faulty, please return it to us so we receive it within a further 14 days.

If a product is found to be faulty within 30 days of purchase we will offer you a full refund or a replacement.

If goods are found to be faulty within 6 months of purchase, we may offer you a repair or a replacement instead.

Cooling off rights do not apply to workshops or appointments if these are booked within 30 days of the start date. However, we will still try to accommodate a cancellation if we can. See Appointments and Workshops.

Refunds

Where you are entitled to a refund for a cancelled order or faulty product, we will process your refund as soon as possible after satisfactory return of the relevant item. Occasionally, it may take us up to 30 days to process a refund.

Refunds will be made to the card or account used for payment.

Appointments

All appointments must be paid for in advance.

We sometimes have a waiting list for appointments. If you would like to cancel or change an appointment you have already booked, please let us know as soon as possible so we can offer the appointment to someone else.

We have a 48-hour cancellation policy. This means that if you don’t give us at least 48 hours’ notice that you wish to cancel or re-arrange an appointment, we will charge in full for the appointment. We will charge you even if we find someone else to take the appointment.

We can accept payment for missed appointments by card or bank transfer.

We reserve the right to refuse appointment requests or to cancel appointments.

Workshops

We schedule all workshops carefully and with the intention that they will go ahead as planned. All workshops must be paid for in full at the time of booking.

We may decide to cancel a workshop, for example if we do feel we have enough bookings to make it a worthwhile workshop experience. If we cancel a workshop, we will offer you a refund or a place on another workshop.

We are not responsible for reimbursing any travel or accommodation costs you may be responsible for.

You can change your mind and cancel a workshop booking, provided there is still 30 days or more before the workshop is scheduled to run. You can’t change your mind about attending a workshop after it has run.

If you cancel your workshop booking with less than 30 days to go before the workshop, you do not have the right to either a refund or a place on another workshop. However, if we have someone on a waiting list who can take your place we will exercise our discretion.

Matters outside our control

If we cannot supply goods or services for reasons beyond our control, we are not obliged to offer you a refund, and we are not responsible for any losses you may incur.

Payment and ownership of products

As a precaution against non-payment, legal ownership of products belongs to us until full payment is made.

Interest

We are entitled to charge interest on all invoices until full payment.

Legal liability and professional accountability

It is always our intention to provide you with goods and services that meet legal and professional standards.

We don’t limit our liability for defective products where it would be unlawful to do so.
