Alternative therapists generally do not have agreements with Försäkringskassan so they are not subsidised and are free to charge as they please. It is also against the law to treat anyone under the age of 8, so you will not find therapists specialising in the treatment of children. The exception to this are those who are qualified in “school medicine” as well as having alternative education, enabling them to treat all ages. A rare example is Vidarkliniken who combine “school medicine” with anthroposophical medicine.
