TERMS OF SERVICE & INFORMED CONSENT
For services with Gabriela Colletta
Ayurvedic Wellness Counseling is a form of wellness coaching that provides clients with recommendations or suggestions to support the natural self-healing intelligence of the body. The goal of all programs is to create within your body and mind an optimum environment for healing to take place and to maximize the body’s ability to heal itself using the principles of Ayurveda.
Ayurveda is currently considered a form of complementary and alternative medicine in the United States. It is not licensed by any state as a medical practice. All services and treatments provided are complementary or alternative to healthcare services provided by licensed healthcare practitioners. Ayurveda does not replace Western Medical diagnosis or treatment.
