Our offerings are educational, social, and supportive in nature. They are not a substitute for medical, psychological, or therapeutic care.
2. Not Medical Advice

-
No hate speech, discrimination, or harassment of any kind

6. Sensitive Topics and Emotional
Safety
Discussions or events within mindbodyJOY may occasionally touch on sensitive topics related to chronic pain, trauma, and emotional distress.

Users are responsible for conducting their own research before engaging with any listed practitioner.
