Professional Disclaimer

Introduction

This disclaimer is issued by Yc Thérapies Ltd ("we," "us," "our," or "the Company"), a limited company registered in the U.K. The information provided on this website, in our digital products, and during our services is for general informational and educational purposes only.

Professional Qualifications

Our founder, Jean Itier, is a qualified clinical hypnotherapist, yoga therapist, and Pain Reprocessing Therapy practitioner. Neither Jean Itier nor any representatives of Yc Thérapies Ltd are medical doctors, physiotherapists, or licensed psychologists, and we are not regulated by the General Medical Council, the Health and Care Professions Council, or other statutory healthcare regulatory bodies in the United Kingdom. We voluntarily adhere to the codes of ethics and practice of our professional membership organisations, details of which are available on request.

To maintain the highest professional standards, Jean Itier engages in regular clinical supervision and continuing professional development. This ensures that the therapeutic approaches used remain evidence-informed and ethically grounded.

Not Medical Advice

Nothing on this website, in our digital products, or during our services should be construed as medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment recommendations. The content we provide is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any physical or mental health condition or disease.

Educational Nature of Content

By accessing this website and using our services, you acknowledge and understand that:

The content we share—including but not limited to blog posts, videos, resources, social media content, newsletters, and any free or paid offerings—is based on professional experience, training, evidence-based practices and personal insights.

Where we reference research or clinical evidence, we do so to provide educational context and to reflect the current state of the field as we understand it. Research in areas such as pain science and nervous system regulation continues to evolve, and we encourage readers to explore primary sources and consult qualified professionals when making personal health decisions.

The information provided is general in nature and not tailored to your specific health situation or needs.

Techniques, exercises, and approaches described may not be suitable for everyone and could potentially exacerbate certain conditions if not appropriately adapted to individual circumstances.

Results from using our content or services may vary significantly between individuals, and no specific outcomes are guaranteed.

No Therapeutic Relationship

Your use of this website, purchase of digital products, or participation in group programmes does not establish a therapist-client relationship. A therapeutic relationship is formed only when both parties have explicitly agreed to work together, following appropriate assessment and consent, and a Client Service Agreement has been completed and signed. General communications, including emails and social media interactions, do not constitute professional advice specific to your situation.

Emergency Situations

The information provided is not suitable for emergency situations. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, acute pain, mental health crisis, or thoughts of harming yourself or others, please:

Call 999 (emergency services) immediately
Visit your nearest A&E department
Contact NHS 24 on 111
Call the Samaritans on 116 123 (for mental health crisis)

Vulnerable Groups

Some content on this website — including blog articles, videos, and free resources — is designed for general educational purposes and may not be suitable for everyone. If you are pregnant or postpartum, under 18, or managing a serious physical or mental health condition alongside chronic pain, we recommend discussing any new therapeutic approaches with your GP or specialist before implementing them independently.

Clients engaging in one-to-one therapy with Yc Thérapies Ltd will be assessed individually before work begins, and the therapeutic approach will be adapted to their specific circumstances throughout.

User Responsibility

By using this website and our services, you acknowledge that:

You are responsible for your own health and wellbeing
Any decisions you make based on information provided here are entirely your own
You should consult qualified medical or psychological professionals before making any health-related decisions or changes to your healthcare routine
You will not disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking medical treatment as a result of content accessed through this website

Testimonials and Case Studies

Any testimonials or case studies presented on this website represent individual experiences and results. These accounts are not intended to represent or guarantee that anyone will achieve the same or similar results. Each individual's experience with pain, stress, and health conditions is unique, as are their responses to various therapeutic approaches.

All testimonials published on this website are genuine accounts shared with the permission of the individuals concerned. They reflect personal experiences and are not presented as evidence of typical outcomes. In line with UK advertising standards, we do not use testimonials to make claims about the efficacy of our services that go beyond what the evidence supports.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Yc Thérapies Ltd's liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of this website or our services will not exceed the limit of our professional indemnity insurance in force at the time any claim arises. Nothing in this disclaimer limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for deliberate misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded. Your statutory rights as a consumer are not affected.

Applicable Regulations

While the complementary therapy services we provide are not currently subject to statutory regulation in the UK, Jean Itier is a registered member of the National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH) and the Complementary & Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC), and adheres to their respective codes of ethics and practice. Details of our professional registrations are available on our website or on request.
