It has been brought to our attention that a company is US called Netalab is linking to our web site.   Netalab have attracted a lot of complaints it would seem because of suggestions they are running a con operation and ripping off customers.   Netalab are apparently using celebrity endorsements to promote their products.   We have no knowledge of Netalab, their products or business practice.   We know not whether Netalab are legitimate or not and have never met or come into contact with the company before.

The reason that a link to our site appears at the bottom of their web site is that they are using a freely downloaded web site template that was originally designed for us.   Our link is permanently embedded in the template and neither we nor they can remove it.   We have no control over who uses this template and in no way endorse or are responsible for the actions of any company, person or individual that use the template.   We are unable to stop Netalab using the template and we can not force them to stop using it.

If you have any questions about Netalab I am afraid we are unable to offer any answers.   We knew nothing of this until someone called us asking for details.   It has been suggested on one web site that you should contact the US authorities as it appears that the contact details posted for Netalab on their web site are false.

We are however a legitimate and well respected London based natural health clinic, so should you have any questions about your health our team of practitioners will be happy to help in any way we can.
