Startup costs are typically around $800 to $3,500, depending on your training, booking and video tools, website and insurance. These are estimates, so check them against your own plans before you commit.

Monthly revenue is typically around $300 to $2,500, depending on how many clients you see and your fees. The estimate starts from about 5 hours a week. Revenue is before costs such as software and insurance.

Check TGA and Australian Consumer Law rules on health advertising and testimonials, and how remedies must be sourced, labelled and posted. Check privacy obligations for health information and professional indemnity insurance. The NHMRC found no reliable evidence for homeopathy, so be upfront with clients.
