Terms & Conditions & Participant Agreement

By booking or attending any session, class, or event with Mind Body Sound, you agree to these Terms & Conditions and acknowledge the participation disclaimer outlined below. These terms apply to all services, including Sound Baths, Sound Massage, Yoga, Breathwork, Meditation, workshops, and events.

Participation & Scope of Practice

Mind Body Sound practitioners are not medical practitioners and do not diagnose, treat, or cure medical or psychological conditions. All sessions are intended to support relaxation, nervous system regulation, and general wellbeing and are not a substitute for medical or mental health care.

If you are under medical care, have a health condition, or are unsure whether a session is suitable, you must seek advice from your healthcare provider prior to participation.

Health Declaration & Intake Form

All clients are required to complete a New Client Intake Form prior to their first session. If booking on behalf of another person (including a child), it is your responsibility to ensure all information is completed accurately.

By attending, you confirm that:

  • You have disclosed all relevant medical conditions, injuries, pregnancy, or health concerns

  • The information provided is accurate and up to date

  • You accept full responsibility for your participation

You must inform the practitioner of any changes to your health before each session.

Contraindications & Suitability

Sound-based sessions (Sound Baths and Sound Massage) are not recommended for:

  • Individuals with severe or unmanaged mental health conditions (e.g. schizophrenia or dissociative disorders)

  • The first trimester of pregnancy

  • Individuals with epilepsy or seizures that may be sound- or vibration-triggered

Yoga, breathwork, and movement-based practices may involve physical exertion and inherent risk. Participation is voluntary and undertaken at your own discretion.

If you are uncertain about suitability, please consult your healthcare provider before booking.

Personal Responsibility & Safety

You agree to:

  • Participate at your own pace

  • Listen to your body and stop if discomfort arises

  • Inform the practitioner of injuries, limitations, or concerns

  • Take full responsibility for your physical and mental wellbeing

The practitioner reserves the right to modify, refuse, or discontinue participation if they believe it is unsafe to proceed.

Arrival & Late Entry

Please arrive at least 10 minutes before the scheduled start time. Late entry may not be permitted, as it can disrupt the experience for others. No refunds or credits are provided for late arrival or missed sessions.

Personal Belongings

Mind Body Sound is not responsible for the safekeeping of personal belongings or for loss or damage to personal property while on the premises.

Consent & Touch

Where relevant, practitioners may offer hands-on guidance or adjustments only with consent. Consent may be verbal or non-verbal and can be withdrawn at any time.

During sound baths or private sound therapy sessions, if a participant falls asleep and begins snoring, gentle physical contact (such as a light touch on the shoulder or foot) may be used solely to awaken the participant. This is done respectfully and for the comfort of the participant and others in the space.

Release of Liability

Participation in sessions is voluntary and undertaken at your own risk. To the extent permitted by law, you agree to release Mind Body Sound, its practitioners, and affiliates from liability for injury, loss, or damage arising from participation, except where liability cannot be excluded under Australian Consumer Law.

No credit is provided for non-attendance or late cancellations.

Cancellation by Mind Body Sound

If a session or event is cancelled or rescheduled by Mind Body Sound, clients will be offered a transfer or credit. Refunds are not provided unless required by law.
