TCM practitioners: set session types and lengths

Acupuncture, cupping, tui na massage, dietary advice: each takes its own time, and combinations take longer. If your booking page offers one generic "session", clients can't tell what they're booking and your timings slip. With Book, you create one service per technique or combination, each with its own slot length and description, so clients choose clearly and your day runs on time.

On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.

Durations are examples: set your own according to your practice and the rules that apply to you.

Set each slot to the time the client is with you: welcome, the technique, rest time if you leave needles in, advice and goodbye. Time a few sessions of each type on a normal day. You create every slot, so time to clean and prepare between clients can sit in a gap that never appears on your page.

Each online booking takes one slot in one service, so a client can't add cupping to an acupuncture booking. Create the combination as its own service, with the longer slot.

Every service appears on your public page; there are no hidden services. Five or six clear services are easier to choose from than fifteen. If you adapt the technique during the session, one general service with a clear description may be enough.

The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email and appears in the client's calendar file. Ask clients not to write health details there.

Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date. Slots of different services can overlap, so if you open two services at the same time, close the other once one is booked, or give each technique its own times.

Book doesn't store records, take payments, sell remedies or send reminders. Clients can't move or cancel online: they contact you. One booking page per business, no staff field: in a shared practice, create services per practitioner. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
