Wellness Disclaimer
Last Updated: October 7, 2026
Healing Thyme provides complementary wellness, educational, energetic, somatic, spiritual, and experiential services intended to support the whole person. Our work may include Medical Qigong, energy medicine, Reiki, sound therapy, breathwork, meditation, foot zoning, acupressure, energetic techniques, body and emotion-focused practices, nervous-system support, lifestyle education, and other complementary wellness modalities.
We Work With Real People Experiencing Real Things
People do not need to be perfectly healthy to work with Healing Thyme.
Clients may seek support while experiencing chronic illness, serious illness, cancer, autoimmune conditions, chronic pain, fatigue, grief, stress, anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, major life transitions, medical treatment, recovery, or other significant physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual challenges.
Healing Thyme may provide complementary support during those experiences.
That support may be intended to promote comfort, relaxation, emotional regulation, body awareness, resilience, stress reduction, personal reflection, energetic balance, spiritual well-being, connection, rest, coping, and an overall sense of wellness.
The fact that a client has a diagnosed medical or mental-health condition does not automatically mean that complementary wellness support is inappropriate. Healing Thyme may work alongside a client's physicians, mental-health professionals, physical therapists, specialists, or other licensed healthcare providers when appropriate.
What Healing Thyme Does Not Do
Healing Thyme is not a medical clinic, psychiatric practice, psychotherapy practice, emergency service, or substitute for licensed healthcare.
Unless a service is being provided by an appropriately licensed healthcare professional acting specifically within that professional license, Healing Thyme does not:
diagnose diseases, disorders, injuries, or mental-health conditions;
medically treat, cure, or prevent disease;
provide psychotherapy or licensed mental-health therapy;
prescribe medication;
prescribe medical treatment plans;
order or interpret medical diagnostic testing;
advise clients to discontinue prescribed medication or medical treatment;
represent that a wellness service can replace appropriate medical or mental-health care; or
guarantee that any service will produce a particular physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual, or medical outcome.
A Healing Thyme practitioner may discuss patterns a client notices in their body, emotions, habits, stress responses, energy, lifestyle, or personal experience. These conversations are part of complementary wellness work and should not be interpreted as a medical or psychiatric diagnosis.
Serious and Chronic Health Conditions
Healing Thyme does provide complementary wellness support to individuals living with chronic and serious health conditions.
This does not mean that Healing Thyme is treating the underlying disease.
For example, a person undergoing cancer treatment may receive services intended to support relaxation, emotional well-being, comfort, body awareness, stress management, or personal coping. A person living with an autoimmune condition or chronic pain may use complementary practices as part of a broader wellness routine. A person experiencing anxiety or depression may participate in breathwork, meditation, sound, energy work, grounding practices, or other wellness services intended to support regulation, reflection, and well-being.
Those services remain complementary to appropriate licensed healthcare.
Clients with significant medical conditions should maintain an appropriate relationship with qualified healthcare professionals for diagnosis, medical treatment, medication management, testing, and other healthcare needs.
Mental Health and Emotional Wellness
Healing Thyme supports emotional and mental wellness.
Clients may discuss grief, anxiety, depression, stress, trauma experiences, relationships, emotional patterns, difficult life experiences, nervous-system responses, or other personal concerns during a session.
These conversations may be meaningful and may be part of a client's wellness experience. They are not psychotherapy unless the service is specifically being provided by a properly licensed mental-health professional acting within that license.
Healing Thyme does not diagnose mental-health disorders, provide psychiatric care, prescribe psychiatric medication, or replace a licensed therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist, physician, or other qualified mental-health professional.
When something falls outside our scope, we may recommend that a client seek additional support from an appropriately qualified professional.
Medical Decisions and Medication
Clients remain responsible for decisions regarding their own healthcare.
Do not delay, discontinue, or modify medical treatment, medication, therapy, or professional healthcare based solely on information received through Healing Thyme.
Questions about medications, diagnoses, laboratory results, medical procedures, psychiatric treatment, or changes to an existing treatment plan should be directed to the appropriately licensed healthcare professional responsible for that care.
Complementary and Integrative Care
Healing Thyme's services are intended to be used as complementary wellness tools.
Complementary care means exactly that: it can exist alongside conventional medical care, mental-health care, rehabilitation, physical therapy, medication, or other professional treatment.
We believe people may use more than one kind of support at the same time.
Choosing complementary wellness services does not require rejecting conventional healthcare, and receiving conventional healthcare does not prevent someone from participating in appropriate complementary wellness practices.
Practitioner Credentials
Healing Thyme practitioners may hold certifications, training, educational degrees, ecclesiastical credentials, or professional designations in complementary and energetic wellness disciplines.
Such credentials should not be interpreted as a Utah medical license, psychology license, psychotherapy license, or other state healthcare license unless that practitioner separately holds and expressly identifies such a license.
The title Doctor of Chinese Energetic Medicine, when used by a Healing Thyme practitioner, refers to education and training within Chinese energetic medicine. It does not mean that the practitioner is a medical doctor, physician, psychologist, psychiatrist, or other state-licensed healthcare provider.
Individual Results
Human beings respond differently to wellness practices.
Some clients report significant changes in how they feel physically, emotionally, mentally, energetically, or spiritually following a session. Others may experience subtle changes, temporary changes, delayed changes, or no noticeable change.
Healing Thyme does not guarantee outcomes.
Testimonials, case examples, educational materials, social-media content, client experiences, practitioner observations, or descriptions of potential benefits represent individual experiences or general wellness information. They are not promises that another person will experience the same result.
Personal Responsibility and Disclosure
Clients are responsible for providing relevant information that may affect the safety or appropriateness of a wellness service.
Please tell your practitioner about significant medical diagnoses, pregnancy, recent surgery, implanted medical devices, cardiovascular concerns, medications, injuries, immune compromise, current medical treatments, significant mental-health concerns, or other circumstances that may require a service to be modified or avoided.
A Healing Thyme practitioner may modify, postpone, decline, or discontinue a technique when it appears inappropriate or outside the practitioner's scope.
Consent and Touch
Participation in Healing Thyme services is voluntary.
Some services may involve light physical touch, pressure, movement, sound, breath practices, energetic techniques, or other experiential methods. The nature of the service will be explained when appropriate, and clients may ask questions before or during a session.
Clients may decline any technique.
Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
A client may ask for a technique to stop, request less or no physical touch, change position, take a break, or end a session.
Educational Information
Information provided through Healing Thyme's website, blog, social media, courses, classes, workshops, handouts, videos, emails, conversations, or other educational materials is provided for general educational and wellness purposes.
It should not be interpreted as individualized medical advice, mental-health treatment, diagnosis, or a professional healthcare recommendation.
Reading or interacting with Healing Thyme content does not create a physician-patient, psychotherapist-client, psychologist-client, or other licensed healthcare relationship.
Emergencies and Crisis Care
Healing Thyme is not an emergency or crisis-response service.
If you believe you or another person is experiencing a medical emergency or is in immediate danger, call 911 or seek emergency medical care.
If you are experiencing a mental-health, emotional, or suicide crisis in the United States, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
Do not rely on Healing Thyme's website, email, text messaging, voicemail, social-media accounts, booking system, or practitioners for emergency or crisis intervention.
Your Healthcare Team
Healing Thyme encourages clients to build the healthcare and wellness team that is appropriate for them.
Depending on an individual's circumstances, that may include physicians, specialists, therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, physical therapists, naturopathic physicians, dietitians, complementary wellness practitioners, spiritual advisors, or other qualified professionals.
Healing Thyme is one potential part of that larger support system.
By Participating
By booking, purchasing, attending, or participating in a Healing Thyme service, class, program, event, or experience, you acknowledge that you understand the complementary nature of the services described above and understand that they do not replace medical diagnosis, licensed mental-health treatment, emergency care, or other professional healthcare when those services are needed.
You remain responsible for determining when licensed medical, psychological, psychiatric, or other professional care is appropriate for you.
TESTIMONIAL & CLIENT EXPERIENCE DISCLAIMER
Last Updated: October 7, 2026
Healing Thyme may publish testimonials, reviews, personal stories, feedback, photographs, videos, or descriptions of experiences provided voluntarily by clients, students, event participants, practitioners, collaborators, or other individuals who have interacted with Healing Thyme, its services, classes, trainings, events, products, or practitioners.
Testimonials are provided for informational purposes and reflect the personal experiences, perceptions, and opinions of the individuals providing them. Individual experiences are inherently personal and may vary substantially from person to person.
Individual Experiences and Results
Any testimonial, client story, review, or statement describing an individual's experience with Healing Thyme represents that person's experience under their individual circumstances.
Healing Thyme does not represent, promise, guarantee, or imply that another individual will experience the same response, outcome, benefit, improvement, sensation, emotional experience, physical response, or result.
Many factors may affect an individual's experience, including personal circumstances, health history, lifestyle, participation, expectations, frequency of services, other care being received, environmental factors, and factors unique to that individual.
No testimonial should be interpreted as a guarantee, prediction, or representation of what another client or participant will experience.
Testimonials Are Not Medical Claims
Healing Thyme provides complementary wellness, educational, relaxation, energy medicine, and holistic services. Testimonials describing a person's physical, emotional, mental, energetic, spiritual, or other experience should not be interpreted as a representation that Healing Thyme diagnoses, treats, cures, prevents, or manages any disease, medical condition, mental health condition, or other health condition.
A client's personal description of their experience does not convert that experience into a medical or scientific claim by Healing Thyme.
Statements made by clients regarding pain, symptoms, illness, medication, medical diagnoses, emotional wellbeing, mental health, trauma, sleep, stress, fertility, chronic conditions, or other health-related matters describe the individual's own experience and should not be interpreted as medical advice or as evidence that the same experience can reasonably be expected by another person.
Healing Thyme does not substitute testimonials for competent medical evidence, clinical research, diagnosis, treatment, or advice from an appropriately licensed healthcare professional.
No Guaranteed Outcomes
Healing Thyme does not guarantee any particular outcome from a session, service, training, class, event, product, program, or wellness practice.
Participation in Healing Thyme services does not guarantee improvement in any physical, emotional, mental, energetic, relational, spiritual, financial, professional, or other area of life.
Clients and participants may experience significant changes, subtle changes, temporary changes, no noticeable change, or experiences different from those described by other clients.
Authenticity of Testimonials
Healing Thyme intends for testimonials and reviews used in its marketing to reflect genuine experiences and opinions.
Healing Thyme does not knowingly publish fabricated testimonials or knowingly misrepresent the identity, experience, or opinion of a person providing a testimonial.
Testimonials may be edited for spelling, grammar, length, formatting, privacy, or clarity when appropriate, but Healing Thyme does not intend to edit testimonials in a manner that materially changes the substance or meaning of the individual's statement.
Names, photographs, identifying details, or portions of a testimonial may be omitted, abbreviated, or changed when necessary to protect the privacy of the individual or when requested or authorized by that individual.
Compensation, Gifts, Discounts, or Other Relationships
If an individual providing an endorsement, testimonial, review, or promotional statement receives compensation, complimentary services, gifts, discounts, referral benefits, affiliate compensation, or another material benefit in connection with that endorsement, Healing Thyme will disclose that relationship when disclosure is legally required or when the relationship could reasonably affect how a consumer evaluates the endorsement.
Healing Thyme does not condition compensation, discounts, gifts, or other benefits on an individual providing a positive review or expressing a particular opinion.
Employees, contractors, practitioners, owners, family members, affiliates, or others with a material relationship to Healing Thyme should not be presented as independent consumers without appropriate disclosure of that relationship.
Reviews From Third-Party Platforms
Healing Thyme may occasionally reproduce, embed, link to, quote, or reference reviews originally submitted through third-party platforms such as Google, social media platforms, booking platforms, wedding or event directories, travel platforms, or other review websites.
Unless otherwise stated, Healing Thyme does not control the policies, moderation practices, display order, verification methods, or publication decisions of those third-party platforms.
The appearance of a review on the Healing Thyme website does not mean that Healing Thyme independently verified every factual statement made by the reviewer.
Selection of Testimonials
Healing Thyme may choose which testimonials or reviews to feature in marketing materials. Featured testimonials are not necessarily representative of every client's experience and should not be interpreted as a statistical representation of typical outcomes.
Where a testimonial communicates a specific result or outcome that requires additional context under applicable advertising law, Healing Thyme may provide additional information or disclosures alongside the testimonial regarding what consumers can generally expect.
Photographs, Video, and Client Stories
Healing Thyme will obtain appropriate permission before intentionally using identifiable client photographs, videos, recorded statements, or personal stories for promotional purposes when permission is required.
Participation in a Healing Thyme service does not automatically constitute permission for Healing Thyme to publicly disclose confidential, sensitive, or personally identifying information.
Any separate photography, media, testimonial, or marketing authorization provided by a participant will govern the permitted use of that content.
Educational and Informational Purposes
Testimonials and client experiences appearing on Healing Thyme's website, social media accounts, advertisements, printed materials, presentations, classes, or other communications are provided to help prospective clients better understand how others have experienced Healing Thyme.
They are not intended to provide medical advice, establish a professional healthcare relationship, diagnose a condition, prescribe treatment, or replace consultation with an appropriately licensed physician, mental health professional, or other qualified healthcare provider.
Your Responsibility
You are responsible for determining whether a Healing Thyme service, class, training, event, or wellness practice is appropriate for you.
If you have a medical condition, mental health condition, significant symptoms, are pregnant, are taking medication, are receiving medical or psychological treatment, or have questions regarding whether a service is appropriate for your circumstances, you should consult an appropriately qualified healthcare professional when appropriate.
Do not delay or discontinue necessary medical or mental health care based upon a testimonial, review, client story, website statement, social media post, or other information provided by Healing Thyme.
