In brief: Through Shop Ayurveda EU, a practitioner can prepare a prescription and send the client a secure payment link. The client pays and the order goes to them, without the practice holding stock or handling payment, and the order stays linked to the client record.
Why prescribe through a link
Dispensing from your own stock means buying ahead, storing, rotating by date, taking payment and writing off what expires. For the three or four preparations a practice recommends every day, that can be worth it. For everything else, a prescription link does the same job without the stock: the client receives exactly what you recommended, and your shelf holds only what you use in the room.
How it works
- Add the client to your Shop Ayurveda EU account.
- Prepare the prescription from the preparations in your account's catalogue.
- Send the secure payment link to the client.
- The client pays through the Shop Ayurveda EU checkout and receives an order confirmation.
- The order stays linked to your client record, together with the prescription history.
What the client sees
The client sees a checkout for the prescribed products only, never the professional catalogue. Professional and client areas are kept separate, so each user sees only their own data.
Keeping within the rules
The preparations you prescribe through the platform are cosmetics or food supplements, not medicines. In anything the client receives with a prescription, describe them in the traditional terms their labels use. Health claims for food supplements are regulated in the EU, and a practice's own messages to clients fall under the same rules as its website.
When dispensing from stock still makes sense
Oils and powders used in the treatment room stay on your shelf, and some clients will want to leave with a product in hand after a session. For those cases, keep a small stock of sealed retail packs and sell them as supplied, with the label intact. Our guide to sourcing supplies for a practice covers how to size that stock.
Opening an account
Practitioners, therapists and Ayurvedic doctors apply at shopayurveda.eu. Registration is free, and prescribing is available once the account has been reviewed and approved. More on the platform is in our overview of how Shop Ayurveda EU works.
Common questions
Does the client need access to the professional platform?
No. The client opens the link and pays through the checkout. They never see the professional catalogue.
Can I see what my clients have ordered?
Yes. Each client's orders and prescription history stay in your account.
Which products can be prescribed?
The preparations in your account's catalogue that are available for prescription. A preparation you need but do not see can be requested through your account.
