Bodstim™ Client Treatment Consent, Waiver and Release


I acknowledge that bioelectric stimulation treatments and related biologics procedures, if any, are not an exact science and no specific guarantees can or have been made concerning the outcome related to both safety and efficacy.

I understand that some clients may experience more change and improvement than others. In virtually all cases, multiple treatments are required in order to realize a difference.

I also understand and agree to fully and undeniably assume the following risks and hazards which may occur in connection with any particular treatment including but not limited to: unsatisfactory results, soreness, poor healing, discomfort, redness, blistering, nerve damage, scarring, infection, and change in skin pigmentation, allergic reaction, muscle damage, and increased hair growth. I understand that even though precautions may be taken in my treatment, not all risks can be known in advance.

It's also important to note that studies have linked EMS to an increased risk of rhabdomyolysis (aka rhabdo), the damage or injury of muscles resulting in the release of muscle fiber contents into the blood, which can lead to serious complications such as kidney failure, according to the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM).

Given the above, I understand that response to treatment varies on an individual basis and that specific results are not guaranteed. Therefore, in consideration for any treatment received, I agree to unconditionally defend, hold harmless and release from any and all liability the company and the individual that provided my treatment, the insured, and any additional insureds, as well as any officers, directors, or employees of the above companies for any condition or result, known or unknown, that may arise as a consequence of any treatment that I receive.

I understand clearly and fully that the stimulation device and electrode suit being used in these procedures only has FDA 510K market clearance for these indications of use:

1. Augmenting muscle building from exercise.

I further understand that the above may not improve my muscle volume or strength.

I hereby strictly agree to only use the device 2X a week for no more than 15 to 20 minutes max of high intensity stimulation (greater than 5 milliamps) per session and no more than 1 hour total use time including warm up 5 minutes, cool down and relaxation mode non-contractile low intensity stimulation time of up to 40 minutes max.

I have read and fully understand the contraindications listed below and hereby agree and consent that I do not have these incompatibilities.

I understand the company, its employees, its advisors, board directors, suppliers and clinical collaborators in no way make any claim(s) that the device or methods have been proven safe or efficacious for the purposes of treating my condition.

I have fully disclosed on here below any medications, previous complications, or current conditions that may affect my treatment.

I understand and agree that any legal action of any kind related to any treatment I receive will be limited to binding arbitration using a single arbitrator agreed to by both parties.

Model, Photographs and Data Use Release

In consideration for treatment received, I hereby grant permission to the individual or company that provided my treatment to use any photographic treatment records for the purposes of clinical and statistical studies, advertising, or promotion without any additional compensation to me.
