⚖️ know the legal lines in your marketing
Truth: None of my clients make medical claims on purpose.
But they often make claims accidentally. (It’s easier than you might think.)
For example, there’s a difference between saying:
✅ “This program supports healthy blood sugar habits.” (This is safe language.)
and
❌ “This program will lower your blood sugar and reverse your diabetes.” (This is unsafe - it’s a medical claim.)
Here’s another example - from the mental health world…
✅ “This program will give you tools to calm your nervous system.” (Safe.)
and
❌ “This program will heal your trauma.” (Unsafe.)
Oy! There are so many people walking around saying “I’m a trauma-informed coach” or “I’m a trauma-informed yoga teacher.” This is super-risky!
Only a licensed mental health provider can address trauma (and only within an established client-therapist relationship).
(Before you reach out to tell me that your training program told you that you could say “I’m trauma-informed”, know this… I’m guessing they didn’t talk with a health care attorney before they launched their program - or they received bad legal advice from a lawyer who doesn’t truly understand medical claims… sigh… I know, I’m sorry to be the one to tell you this.)
But, you’re a smart coach or practitioner - and I’m guessing that you want to know exactly where the legal lines are around marketing.
That’s why health and medical claims are one of the 5 key areas I’ll be covering in my 2027 Legal Checkup for Health & Wellness Practitioners.
You’ll learn what’s changed in the past year around health and medical claims - and what language regulators are now going after.
So you can talk about your work, your services, and the results you offer in a legally safe way.
This is NOT going to be a passive webinar. It’s a hands-on workshop.
You’ll receive practical info AND create a personalized legal action plan during our time together.
▶️ Remember… Your marketing is key for the growth of your practice - and knowing how to use safe language is how you stay out of hot water.
