Medical Disclaimer

This medical disclaimer explains how to use the health information on Tylurs com. Our content is general information only, and it cannot replace a personal assessment, diagnosis or treatment plan from a qualified health professional.

Last updated:

We want the articles, exercise guides and condition pages on Tylurs com to be accurate and genuinely helpful. Because everyone’s body, history and circumstances are different, general information can only go so far. Please read this medical disclaimer before acting on anything you find on the site.

Information only, not medical advice

The content on this website is provided for general educational purposes. It is not medical advice and is not intended to diagnose, treat or prevent any condition in a particular person. Symptoms that sound similar can have very different causes, and some need tests or treatment that no website can provide.

Reading this site does not make you our patient

Reading our pages, following an exercise guide or sending us an enquiry does not create a clinician-patient relationship between you and Tylurs Physiotherapy. That relationship begins only when you attend an assessment with one of our physiotherapists and agree a plan of care together.

Always get a personal assessment

If you have pain, an injury or a health concern, speak to your GP, a physiotherapist or another qualified health professional who can assess you in person. In particular:

  • do not ignore or delay professional advice because of something you have read here
  • do not stop or change any medication or prescribed treatment without talking to the clinician who prescribed it
  • seek advice promptly if your symptoms are severe, getting worse or not improving as expected

If you would like advice that is specific to you, you can book an assessment with our physiotherapists.

In an emergency

This website, our contact form and our email inbox are not monitored for emergencies. If you think you or someone else needs urgent help, call your local emergency number or go to your nearest emergency department straight away. Examples include:

  • signs of a stroke, such as one side of the face drooping, weakness in one arm or slurred speech, even if they pass quickly (always call your emergency number rather than travelling yourself)
  • chest pain or severe difficulty breathing
  • a suspected broken bone or a sudden, severe injury
  • back pain with numbness around your genitals or bottom, weakness or numbness in both legs, or new difficulty peeing or controlling your bladder or bowels

Exercising safely

The exercises and stretches on this site are general examples, not a personal prescription. To exercise safely:

  • start gently and build up gradually
  • stop and seek advice if pain becomes sharp, keeps increasing or lasts much longer than usual after exercise
  • stop straight away and get medical help if you feel chest pain, faintness, severe dizziness or unusual shortness of breath
  • speak to your GP or physiotherapist before you start if you have a heart, lung or other medical condition, are pregnant, are recovering from surgery or a recent injury, or have been advised to limit your activity

Physio tip: mild discomfort that settles quickly can be a normal part of rehabilitation. Pain that is sharp, spreading or clearly worse the next day is a signal to ease back and check in with a professional.

Results vary from person to person

Recovery depends on many factors, including the nature of the problem, your general health and how consistently a plan is followed. We do not promise or guarantee any particular outcome. Testimonials, reviews and case examples describe individual experiences and do not mean that you will get the same result.

We sometimes link to trusted organisations, such as the NHS guide to physiotherapy, so that you can read more. We are not responsible for the content of external websites, and a link does not mean we endorse the organisation, its products or its advice.

Accuracy and updates

We review our content and update it when guidance changes, and our articles and guides show when they were last updated. However, health research moves quickly, and we cannot guarantee that every page is complete, current or free from error at all times. If something looks wrong or out of date, please tell us through our contact page.

How we handle personal information is explained in our privacy policy, and the rules for using this website are set out in our terms of use. For practical, plain-English advice from our team, visit the Tylurs com blog, keeping this disclaimer in mind as you read.
