Terms of Service

Last updated August 8, 2026

Acceptance

By accessing or using Heal by Heel, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site. These Terms apply only to Heal by Heel; third-party sites have their own terms.

Educational use only

The site shares general education, personal experience, and research references. It is not medical diagnosis or treatment, does not replace care from a qualified professional, and does not create a clinician-patient relationship.

Use at your own risk

You are responsible for deciding whether information or an exercise is appropriate for you. Use stable support, stay within a comfortable range, and stop for sharp, increasing, radiating, or unusual pain, dizziness, weakness, or loss of balance. Consult a qualified clinician before beginning if you have an injury, medical condition, diabetes, reduced sensation, balance concerns, recent surgery, pregnancy, or uncertainty about your symptoms.

No guarantees

Symptoms, products, and exercises affect people differently. Heal by Heel makes no promise about diagnosis, pain relief, recovery time, product suitability, availability, or results. Personal experience and research references are not guarantees that the same approach will work for you.

Affiliate and external links

Some Amazon links are paid links. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. A purchase may generate a commission at no extra cost to you. Third-party products, prices, claims, availability, purchases, returns, warranties, privacy practices, and disputes are controlled by the relevant seller or service—not Heal by Heel.

Permitted use and intellectual property

You may use the site for personal, noncommercial education. Unless otherwise noted, the site’s original text, design, branding, audio, and artwork may not be copied, republished, sold, or presented as your own without permission. You may share links to the site.

Acceptable use

Do not disrupt the site, attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, scrape it at a scale that impairs service, misuse its content, or present its material as individualized professional medical guidance.

Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Heal by Heel is provided “as is” and “as available,” without express or implied warranties, including warranties of accuracy, availability, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and noninfringement. Research, product information, and external pages may change.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Heal by Heel and its owner will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for losses arising from reliance on the site, participation in an exercise, or use of a linked product or service. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so those exclusions may not apply to you.

Governing law and severability

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where applicable law requires otherwise. If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect.

Changes

These Terms may be updated as the site changes. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised Terms. The updated date identifies the current version.
