VAT Waiver

I understand that Vibroacoustic Therapy (VAT) is a relatively new therapy that may help to relieve pain, to process emotions, and to relax and regulate the mind.  Every person’s response to VAT is unique.  In rare instances, some individuals may temporarily experience negative feelings or memories or uncomfortable physical sensations. There is no guarantee, expressed or implied, that this therapy will cure any condition or disease. *Please discuss use of VAT with your healthcare provider before use to decide if it is right for you.

 

I also understand that if I have:  very low blood pressure, an active bleeding disorder or thrombus(blood clot), angina (chest pain), a pacemaker or other metal implants, active or acute inflammation, a prolapsed intervertebral disc, whiplash, head injury, internal or external bleeding (menstrual bleeding does not apply), recent surgery, am or could be pregnant, psychotic, pre-psychotic or border-line psychotic conditions or severe neurotic conditions, recent myocardial infarction (heart attack) or have post-traumatic-stress disorder there could be a risk for an adverse reaction from VAT. It is possible that people with diabetes will experience insulin"feeling" during or shortly after therapy sessions. VAT is NOT a treatment for diabetes. It must be stressed that VAT has no positive effect on diabetes. Weight limit for VAT equipment is 350 pounds.

 

I have approval from my healthcare provider and have had the opportunity to discuss my history of any of the aforementioned disorders with the vibroacoustic therapist prior to receiving a VAT session. I hereby consent to and authorize vibroacoustic therapy.
