Breathwork is not recommended for persons with extreme mental illness, or for persons using antipsychotic medications or history of aneurysms. Both persons with asthma and women who are pregnant are advised against practicing until they consult with their primary care physician.
(1) I HEREBY RELEASE, INDEMNIFY, AND HOLD HARMLESS SENSOPHY and its employees, agents, representatives, team members, as well as its owners, principals, and representatives (hereafter collectively “SENSOPHY RELEASEES”), WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL INJURY, whether physical, mental, psychological or emotional, or ANY LOSS or DAMAGE to PERSON or PROPERTY, of any kind, WHETHER ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF SENSOPHY RELEASEES OR OTHERWISE, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
