Disclaimer & Privacy Policy

​

Empowering Wellness Holistic Health Coaching respects your privacy and is committed to providing clear, responsible information about our services and how your personal information is handled.

Health and Wellness Disclaimer

Krista Arnaudo is a National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach with training and certifications in nutrition, mindfulness facilitation, whole-food culinary arts, and holistic health and wellness.

The information and services provided by Empowering Wellness Holistic Health Coaching are intended to educate, encourage, and support you in making informed lifestyle and wellness choices. Health and wellness coaching is designed to complement the care provided by your physician or other licensed healthcare professionals, not replace it.

Krista Arnaudo is not acting as a physician, registered dietitian, psychologist, pharmacist, or other licensed medical provider. Coaching services and website content do not constitute medical care, medical nutrition therapy, mental health treatment, diagnosis, prescribing, or treatment of any disease or medical condition. Participation in coaching does not create a physician-patient or other licensed healthcare-provider relationship.

Personalized Wellness Guidance

Coaching recommendations may include education concerning nutrition, movement, sleep, stress management, mindfulness, behavior change, supplements, and other general wellness practices. Any information provided is based on the information available at the time and is intended to help clients make informed decisions in partnership with their healthcare providers.

You remain responsible for your healthcare decisions. Before changing your diet, exercise routine, supplements, medications, or medical treatment, consult an appropriately licensed healthcare professional, particularly if you are pregnant or nursing, have a diagnosed medical condition, take medication, have allergies, or are receiving medical treatment.

Never discontinue or change a prescription medication based on information obtained through this website or through health and wellness coaching without first consulting the prescribing provider.

Laboratory and Wellness Testing

Gut health, micronutrient, and other wellness testing may be used as educational tools to help identify patterns and areas that may benefit from general lifestyle or nutritional support. Coaching discussions regarding test results are for wellness education and do not constitute a medical diagnosis, medical interpretation, or treatment plan.

Laboratory findings that may indicate a medical concern should be discussed with a physician or other appropriately licensed healthcare provider. Testing and coaching are not substitutes for medically necessary examinations, diagnostic testing, or treatment.

Supplements

Any discussion of vitamins, minerals, herbs, nutritional supplements, or other wellness products is educational and is not a prescription or guarantee of safety or effectiveness. Supplements can cause side effects and may interact with medications, medical conditions, laboratory testing, or other supplements.

Consult your physician or pharmacist before beginning a supplement, especially if you take medication, have a medical condition, are preparing for surgery, or are pregnant or nursing.

Empowering Wellness Holistic Health Coaching may receive compensation or a professional margin from certain supplements, laboratory services, or products purchased through recommended platforms. Recommendations are made based on professional judgment and the client’s stated wellness goals. Clients are not required to purchase from a particular provider.

Results and Testimonials

Every person is different, and individual results depend on numerous factors, including health history, consistency, lifestyle, and circumstances outside the coaching relationship. No particular outcome is promised or guaranteed.

Testimonials and client experiences represent individual experiences and should not be interpreted as a promise that another person will obtain the same or similar results.

Website Content

The articles, resources, downloads, emails, social media content, and other information offered by Empowering Wellness Holistic Health Coaching are provided for general educational purposes. Although reasonable efforts are made to provide accurate and helpful information, health and wellness knowledge continues to evolve, and no representation is made that every piece of information is complete, current, or appropriate for every individual.

Reliance on website content is at your own discretion. Empowering Wellness Holistic Health Coaching is not responsible for decisions made solely on the basis of general website content or third-party information linked from this website.

Empowering Wellness Holistic Health Coaching does not provide emergency or crisis services. If you believe you may be experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or seek immediate care from a qualified medical provider.
