TERMS OF USE

Working With The French Homeopath

​

These terms apply when you use this website or book a consultation.

​

1. Nature of Services

Homeopathy is a holistic approach that considers the whole person, including mental, emotional, and physical aspects of health.

Responses to homeopathic remedies can vary. At times, there may be temporary changes in symptoms or a brief aggravation as part of the healing process. No specific outcome can be guaranteed.

​

2. Medical Disclaimer

The French Homeopath is not a medical doctor and does not provide conventional medical diagnosis or treatment.

Services offered are not a substitute for medical care. Clients are encouraged to maintain a relationship with a licensed healthcare provider for appropriate medical evaluation and follow-up.

If you have urgent or serious health concerns, please contact your physician or emergency services immediately.

​

3. Complementary Care

Homeopathy may be used alongside conventional care. At times, you may be advised to pursue additional medical evaluation or testing where appropriate.

​

4. Booking and Payment

  • Fees are due at the time of booking

  • Consultations do not include remedies unless otherwise specified

  • Flower essence consultations include a custom elixir shipped by mail

  • Clients are responsible for selecting the correct time zone when booking

By booking a consultation, you confirm that you are doing so of your own free will and that you are able to enter into this agreement.

​

5. Consultation Guidelines

Please arrive on time for your consultation. Late arrivals will still end at the scheduled time, and the full consultation fee will apply.

Please choose a quiet and private space where you can speak comfortably and without interruption. If the consultation is for your child, they may be briefly included depending on their age and the needs of the case.

Between consultations, the best way to reach me is typically by email.

​

6. Cancellation Policy

Appointments canceled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours’ notice will be charged in full.

​

7. Client Responsibilities

By engaging in services, you agree that:

  • You are not seeking services under false pretenses

  • You understand that homeopathy does not replace emergency care

  • You will maintain appropriate medical care when needed

  • You understand that results vary from person to person and cannot be guaranteed

  • You will not send inappropriate or explicit images or content

 

8. Privacy and Confidentiality

All information shared during consultations is treated as confidential and will not be disclosed without your consent, except where required by law.

Disclosure may be necessary if there is reasonable concern of harm to yourself or others, or in cases of suspected child or elder abuse.

While reasonable precautions are taken to protect privacy, confidentiality of digital communication cannot be absolutely guaranteed due to the nature of email, messaging, phone, and video technology.

 

9. Professional Collaboration

At times, your case may be discussed with other professional homeopaths for the purpose of improving care. In such cases, all identifying information is removed.

 

10. Limitation of Liability
