No Professional Advice:
There is no professional relationship formed between us unless you explicitly choose to work with me by purchasing my services.
Nothing we provide for you here is intended to replace any form of competent professional advice in any form. If you are in need of professional advice, including medical, physical, mental or emotional health advice, or any other form of professional advice, then you should seek out a competent professional in that area who can ensure you are provided help that is specific to your particular past-and-current situation and circumstances and who can provide you with the personal follow-up you may require for your ongoing health and well-being and that of your dependents. To the extent our offerings are provided to support health, you agree and pledge to maintain full and sole responsibility for your own health and that of your dependents.
Health and Wellness:
The following legal terms also apply as to this Agreement:
A. Non-medical Background: The owner holds a Bachelor of health science in naturopathy, Master of Applied Science Acupuncture, Bachelor of Midwifery and certification in childbirth education. The owner is registered with ANTA, AACMA and AHPRA. Cathryn is not now, has never been, and does not claim to be a medical doctor, psychologist, psychiatrist, mental-health counsellor, or drug and/or disease-treatment prescribing health care professional. All of the goods, services, information and/or materials we provide under this Agreement are in no way connected or dependent upon such person’s past or current licenses and/or certifications. The information in our programs, goods and/or services is based on our personal experiences and on the experiences of our past and current members and participants and is shared for general educational purposes only and for no other purpose.
B. No Medical Advice: Our programs, treatments and consultations are not a quick fix or a cure-all, or a substitute for sound medical advice. Nothing claimed by us in our programs, nor on any of our websites, social media or in any of our materials, is intended to be medical advice, nor is it any way a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Nothing shared by us is intended as medical diagnosis, treatment or cure. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking medical advice because of something you have read or heard from us, on any of our websites, in any of our materials, or for any other reason. Whether or not you choose to obtain the consent of your medical doctor or other qualified health care provider and/or work with your physician or other qualified health care provider while using any information received from us, you still are agreeing to accept full responsibility for your own actions and inactions including those of your dependents.
C. Consult Often with Your Medical Doctor or Health Care Professional: We are not mental health professionals, and anyone with a history of trauma should consult a mental health professional as you progress through our programs. Experience shows that adopting a health and wellness protocol often can create dramatic physiological changes. Therefore, if you are currently taking any medications as prescribed by your doctor or health care professional, then your medications may need to be adjusted frequently; please consult with your doctor or health care professional. This is not a promise that your medications will change, just a possibility you may want to consider based on our past experience. Please consult with your medical Doctor or health care professional if you are taking prescribed medications and are starting any new supplements suggested. This is mandatory to avoid any possible contraindications.
D. Health, weight loss and fertility results will vary: No claims about weight loss or fertility should ever be considered typical because the average person on any weight loss or fertility program either never begins the program, doesn’t follow many or all of the steps of the program, or drops out of the program. Every person’s body is unique; therefore, our programs will be different for each person. Whilst following one of our programs (weight loss, fertility) can be significant, leading to an amazing transformation. This transformation depends fully on the amount of effort, adherence and follow-up that you and your partner put into the program.
e. Please note it is your responsibility to inform us of any allergies and senilities that you have. Omitting this information or any health information does not hold us responsible to advice, treatment, nutritional or herbal supplementation recommended or sold. As such no refund to products is given when information is omitted. For any reaction you are to contact me directly via phone or email, immediately stop taking and in cases of anaphylaxis call 000 or contact your GP
No TGA evaluation:
As applicable, the advice shared on this site has not been evaluated by the Australian therapeutics goods association (TGA). The products and methods mentioned or recommended on this site are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any illness or disease, nor are the products and methods intended to replace proper medical help.
