Submit a request for an investigation to the trustee’s office.
There are two types of recourse available to patients/clients who feel injured following treatment.
Disciplinary law appeals
Civil law remedies
Disciplinary law appeals
A request for an investigation may be filed with the trustee of the Fédération des Médecines Alternatives by anyone who believes that an offense has been committed, against the Code of Ethics or any other regulation or directive adopted by the Board of Directors of the FMA.
Once the investigation is completed and depending on the available evidence, the trustee may decide to file a disciplinary complaint against a professional before the FMA Disciplinary Council. In certain situations and according to certain very specific criteria, the trustee or assistant trustee may also propose conciliation.
For any inquiry or information request, you can contact the FMA from Monday to Thursday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Civil law remedies
In the context of a therapist-patient relationship in alternative medicine, the possible remedies in civil law concern situations where a patient considers having suffered harm through the fault of a professional. Reparation, particularly monetary, can only be ordered by civil courts and never by disciplinary courts.
