BE AWESOME BE STRONG LLCWOOJER ACOUSTIC HAPTIC MAT INFORMED CONSENT & LIABILITY WAIVERFacility Location: 160 Old Farm Rd, Suite C-D, Amherst, MA 01002 Phone: 413.345.5317
1. ASSUMPTION OF RISK & NATURE OF SERVICESThe Woojer Acoustic Haptic Mat delivers powerful, low-frequency tactile vibrations and acoustic sound waves directly to the body. This haptic technology is designed to enhance mindfulness, music immersion, nervous system down-regulation, and acoustic relaxation post-workout. I understand and acknowledge that: - Woojer technology utilizes strong tactile transducers that transmit physical kinetic vibrations and low-frequency bass energy directly through bones, tissues, and muscles.
- The physical effects may include deep muscular vibration, sensory stimulation, mild temporary lightheadedness, or auditory stimulation.
- Haptic acoustic mat services provided by Be Awesome Be Strong LLC are intended solely for general relaxation, sound therapy, and athletic recovery, and do not constitute medical treatment, physical therapy, or medical rehabilitation.
2. CONTRAINDICATIONS & HEALTH ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Because the Woojer Acoustic Mat generates intense physical vibrations, magnetic fields, and low-frequency tactile energy, it presents specific safety risks for individuals with certain medical implants or physical conditions. By signing below, I certify that I DO NOT have any of the following conditions, OR that I have received explicit written clearance from a licensed healthcare provider to use acoustic/haptic vibration equipment: - Pacemakers & Implanted Medical Devices: I do not have a cardiac pacemaker, implanted cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD), insulin pump, or other active electronic medical implant that could be affected by magnetic components or vibration frequencies.
- Pregnancy: I am not currently pregnant or suspect I may be pregnant (direct abdominal/back vibration is contraindicated during pregnancy).
- Epilepsy / Seizure Disorders: I am not prone to sound- or vibration-induced seizures or light/sensory-triggered neurological events.
- Recent Physical Trauma & Surgeries: I do not have acute unhealed bone fractures, joint replacements, recent surgical incisions, or acute spinal injuries (e.g., severe herniated discs) that could be aggravated by mechanical vibration.
- Severe Cardiac Conditions: I do not have unmanaged arrhythmia, severe heart disease, or acute cardiovascular instability.
- Inner Ear / Balance Disorders: I am not prone to severe motion sickness, vertigo, or Meniere's disease triggered by low-frequency acoustic vibrations.
If you checked or suspect any of the conditions above, you must inform Be Awesome Be Strong LLC staff prior to your session. 3. CLIENT RESPONSIBILITIES & RULES OF USEI agree to strictly adhere to all operational guidelines provided by Be Awesome Be Strong LLC staff: - Intensity Levels: I will start sessions at a low-to-moderate haptic intensity level and will not increase the vibration or volume settings beyond a comfortable, soothing threshold.
- Immediate Stop: If I experience dizziness, nausea, chest pain, numbness, headache, or physical discomfort at any point during the session, I will stop the device immediately and notify staff.
- Headphones & Auditory Safety: I will keep headphone audio volumes at a safe, moderate listening level to protect my hearing.
