If you have any questions, send an e-mail to: kyle@spinerehabathome.com.

​

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) are a binding contract between you and Spine Rehab @ Home (“we” and “us”). You demonstrate your agreement and acceptance of the Terms by clicking “Accept” when prompted or by otherwise using the Services. However, if you do not accept these Terms, you do not have a right or permission to use the Services.  These Terms include the provisions in this document, as well as those in our Privacy Policy.

​

You must be at least 18 years of age to use Spine Rehab @ Home.   If you are 18 years of age or older, you represent and warrant that you are an individual of legal age to form a binding contract.

​

If you are under 18 years of age, you have received your parent’s or guardian’s permission to use the Services and have had your parent or guardian to agree to these Terms on your behalf.  As a minor, if you did not receive permission from a parent or guardian, you are not allowed to use Spine Rehab @ Home.

Alternatively, you may be agreeing to these Terms on behalf of an organization or entity.  If you are, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to agree to these Terms on that organization or entity’s behalf, making the Terms binding upon such organization or entity (in which case, the references to “you” and “your” in these Terms, except for in this sentence, refer to that organization or entity).

You will only use the Services in a manner that complies with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations. If your use of the Services is prohibited by any such laws, rules, and regulations, then you are not authorized to use the Services.

​

Providers are Independent Contractors

The Spine Rehab @ Home platform and services are directed to connecting users with third party doctors of physical therapy (“Providers”), who may provide tele-health physical therapy assessment and physical therapy sessions. In some instances, Providers may advise users to seek a higher level of care, such as an in-office visit or further medical attention.  By using Spine Rehab @ Home, you acknowledge and agree that Spine Rehab @ Home provides administrative services, but does not provide any form of medical care, medical opinion, medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and that Spine Rehab @ Home does not evaluate the need to seek medical attention until you are a paid client. Spine Rehab @ Home may provide content for information purposes only, such as, articles, videos, graphics, images, and other material, and such content does not constitute a medical opinion, medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment of any particular condition. The provision of such content, the platform, and the Services does not create a doctor-patient relationship between you and Spine Rehab @ Home. You should always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified healthcare provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. IN CASE OF EMERGENCY, CALL YOUR DOCTOR OR 911 IMMEDIATELY.

​

What are the basics of using Spine Rehab @ Home?

Spine Rehab @ Home is a platform that connects users with Providers who have independently contracted with Spine Rehab @ Home to remotely provide physical therapy services via electronic connections, e.g., audio, video, and chat.  In order to access the Services, users are required to register with Spine Rehab @ Home. Registered users may login to Spine Rehab @ Home’s platform to manage their accounts, connect and schedule appointments with Providers, and conduct video sessions with Providers. Providers may login to Spine Rehab @ Home’s platform to manage their accounts, connect and schedule appointments with users, and conduct video sessions with users. Spine Rehab @ Home is under no obligation and may refuse to register any user or Provider at its sole discretion. Spine Rehab @ Home may also deactivate any account at any time, including, without limitation, if it determines that a user or Provider has violated these Terms of Use.

​

​

Will these Terms ever change?

We are constantly trying to improve our Services, so these Terms may change along with the Services. We reserve the right to change the Terms at any time, but if we do, we will alert you to changes by either placing a notice within the Services, on the website, or sending you an email if you have provided us with such contact information.

​

Please note that if you have opted not to receive legal notice emails from us (or you have not provided us with your email address), those legal notices will still govern your use of the Services, and you are still responsible for reading and understanding them.

If you do not agree with the new Terms, you may reject them.  However, if the terms are rejected, you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services in any way after a change to the Terms is made effective, such usage demonstrates agreement with all of the changes.

​

Will Spine Rehab @ Home ever change the Services?

We are always trying to improve the Services, so they may change over time.  We may suspend or discontinue any part of the Services, or we may introduce new features or impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Services.  We will try to give you notice when we make a material change to the Services that would affect you or your use of the Services, but this is not always feasible.

Do I have to grant any licenses to Spine Rehab @ Home or to other users?

Anything you post, transmit, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide through the Services is your “User Submission.”  Please note that all of the following licenses are subject to our Privacy Policy to the extent they relate to User Submissions that are also your personally-identifiable or health information.

​

Will Spine Rehab @ Home ever remove Content?

We reserve the right to remove any Content from the Services at any time, for any reason, in our sole discretion, and without notice.

​

Does this cost me anything?
