I, Ruth Wirawan, serve as a Certified Functional Wellness Coach and Practitioner, guiding clients through a holistic, self-care approach to well-being. It is important to understand the scope of my work and the legal boundaries within which I operate.
1. Not a Medical Provider
I am not a licensed medical doctor, physician, or healthcare provider. As such:
I do not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition.
I do not prescribe medications or medical interventions.
The information I provide is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
I strongly encourage all clients to maintain a relationship with their licensed physician or healthcare provider. Any decisions you make regarding your health should be done in consultation with them.
2. Functional Wellness Coaching – My Role
As a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN) Practitioner, I work within the following guidelines:
I facilitate lab test ordering through third-party services but do not personally order diagnostic tests.
I do not interpret medical test results; instead, I provide education on what the findings may suggest in relation to functional health.
My role is to identify healing opportunities and guide clients in lifestyle, nutritional, and environmental changes to support their body’s natural function.
This work is based on an opt-in model of self-care, where clients take an active role in their wellness journey.
3. Personal Responsibility & Liability Waiver
By engaging in coaching or functional health guidance, you acknowledge that:
Any recommendations or protocols I share are for educational and informational purposes only.
Your participation is voluntary, and you assume full responsibility for any health decisions you make.
You will consult with your primary care provider before implementing any changes suggested in our work together.
By working with me, you agree that Ruth Wellness and its representatives are not liable for any direct or indirect consequences of decisions made based on our sessions.
