POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

1. EDUCATIONAL PURPOSE DISCLAIMER

The Integrative Healing Practitioner Certification, including the Sound Healing and Breathwork Mastery program, is offered strictly for educational and personal development purposes. The content, teachings, techniques, and materials provided in this program are intended to expand knowledge and practical skills in holistic wellness disciplines.

This program does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Participants are strongly encouraged to consult qualified healthcare professionals before beginning any new health or wellness practice. The instructors, facilitators, and program administrators are not liable for any health outcomes arising from the application of techniques taught in this program.

Completion of this certification does not automatically license graduates to practice as healthcare providers. Participants are responsible for understanding and complying with all applicable laws and licensing requirements in their jurisdiction.

Enrollment in the program is confirmed upon receipt of a completed application form and the required deposit or full tuition payment. Seats are limited and are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.
