1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS WEBSITE OR ENROLLING IN ANY COURSE OR PROGRAM OFFERED BY THE POSITIONAL RELEASE THERAPY INSTITUTE (“PRT-i,” “COMPANY,” “WE,” “US,” OR “OUR”).

By accessing or using the PRT-i website located at https://prt-i.com (the “Site”), purchasing any course, program, or product, or by clicking “I Agree” or similar acceptance mechanism, you (“User,” “You,” or “Your”) acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.

YOU MUST BE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OF AGE TO ACCESS OR USE THE SITE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ANY PROVISION OF THESE TERMS, YOU MUST NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SITE OR ANY PRT-i SERVICES.

PRT-i reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated by posting a revised effective date on this page and, where feasible, by email. Your continued use of the Site after any modification constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

2. IMPORTANT HEALTHCARE AND EDUCATIONAL DISCLAIMER

THE CONTENT ON THIS SITE IS PROVIDED FOR EDUCATIONAL AND INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS, OR TREATMENT.

(a) No Provider-Patient Relationship. Use of this Site, participation in any PRT-i course, or communication with PRT-i staff does not create a provider-patient or therapist-patient relationship of any kind.

(b) Not a Substitute for Professional Care. Nothing on this Site should be construed as a substitute for the professional judgment of a licensed healthcare provider who is familiar with your individual circumstances. Always seek the advice of a qualified health professional before beginning any new treatment, therapy, or exercise program.

(c) No Guarantee of Outcomes. Individual results from any therapy or technique discussed on this Site will vary. PRT-i makes no representation that any particular outcome described on this Site will be achieved by any individual patient or clinician.

Nothing in these Terms or in any PRT-i course alters or overrides any clinician’s legal scope of practice. Certification by PRT-i is a proprietary credentialing designation—it does not constitute licensure and does not expand any legally defined scope of practice.

4. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

4.1 Ownership

All intellectual property rights in the Site and its content—including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, images, audio, video, course materials, training manuals, techniques, protocols, online recordings, the PRT-i name and mark, and the Positional Release Therapist Certification program—are owned by or licensed to PRT-i. These rights include copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, and other proprietary rights.

4.2 Limited License to Certified Clinicians

Upon successful completion of the PRT-i Certification program and continued compliance with these Terms, PRT-i grants certified clinicians a nonexclusive, nontransferable, revocable license to use PRT-i intellectual property—including logos and certified marks—solely in connection with the authorized clinical practice of PRT techniques at their licensed place of practice.

You shall not, without the prior express written consent of PRT-i:

Alter, amend, reproduce, distribute, sell, or disseminate any PRT-i training materials or course content, in whole or in part;
Modify or create derivative works of any PRT-i technique, method, or protocol;
Teach, instruct, or certify others in PRT techniques outside of an authorized PRT-i program;

Sublicense any rights granted to you under these Terms;
Use any PRT-i content for reverse engineering or to develop competing methodologies;
Use PRT-i trademarks, logos, or certification marks in any manner that suggests endorsement without authorization.

4.4 Confidential Information

PRT-i course materials, proprietary protocols, pricing structures, and technical information not available to the general public constitute confidential information. You agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information and not disclose it to third parties without prior written authorization from PRT-i.

4.5 Prohibition on AI Training Use

You expressly agree that no PRT-i content—including course recordings, written materials, images, and techniques—may be used to train, develop, improve, or fine-tune any artificial intelligence system, machine learning model, or similar technology without PRT-i’s prior written consent.

5. LICENSING TERMS AND CERTIFICATION

PRT-i instruction and certification is available to and intended solely for qualified students and participants who hold a current, valid license in one of the following professions: acupuncture, athletic training, chiropractic, dentistry, medicine, massage therapy, naprapathy, occupational therapy, osteopathy, physical therapy, podiatry, and veterinary medicine.

Clinicians must agree to use and maintain all PRT-i intellectual property—including logos and registered and copyrighted material—under a nonexclusive and nontransferable license while in compliance with these Terms. PRT-i instruction and related manual therapy techniques are not to be used except by licensed clinicians and students who have been instructed and certified by PRT-i.

Certification by PRT-i designates a clinician as a Positional Release Therapist (PRT-c®). This designation is a proprietary credentialing mark of PRT-i and does not constitute, alter, or expand any professional licensure or legally defined scope of practice. Each certified clinician retains full independent clinical judgment and professional responsibility at all times. Nothing in these Terms or in any PRT-i course overrides, supplements, or expands the scope of practice defined by applicable state or federal law.

Upon successful completion of the Positional Release Therapist Certification, qualified clinicians may be listed in the “Find a Provider” section of the prt-i.com website. Students who have not yet completed certification may access Preferred Provider marketing materials but will not be listed until certification is complete.

As a condition for participating in any course or training, clinicians and students are required to read and agree to these Terms and Conditions before attending any virtual or in-person training.

The Positional Release Therapy Institute certifies compliance with applicable anti-discrimination laws and the use of current, inclusive, and professionally accepted terminology in all courses and certification programs.

6. PARTICIPANT DISCLAIMER AND RESPONSIBILITY

Proper training in Positional Release Therapy (PRT) is presented to participants in a multi-module format, currently consisting of the Positional Release Therapist Certification program. Associated PRT-i courses offer essential and advanced knowledge of PRT techniques for assessing and treating musculoskeletal and neurological dysfunctions.

Participants who receive training from PRT-i will be informed of the indications, contraindications, and limitations of PRT. It is the participant’s sole responsibility to demonstrate sound clinical judgment at all times, to apply PRT techniques only within their applicable scope of practice, and to obtain any additional training required by their professional licensing board or applicable law.

PRT-i does not represent that completion of any course or certification guarantees clinical competency, patient outcomes, or professional advancement.

7. INDEMNIFICATION

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless PRT-i, its successors and assigns, parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, trainers, and independent contractors (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) arising out of or relating to:

Your unauthorized or improper use of PRT techniques or PRT-i intellectual property;
Your use of PRT techniques prior to completing required training or certification;
Your use of PRT techniques in any unauthorized modified form;
Your teaching or instructing others in PRT outside an authorized PRT-i program;
Your advertising or marketing of PRT independent of established PRT-i usage guidelines;
Any claim arising from your treatment of, or interactions with, any patient or third party;
Any regulatory investigation, proceeding, or action arising from your clinical practice;
Your violation of any provision of these Terms;
Your negligence or intentional misconduct;
Any breach of your representations or warranties under these Terms.

This indemnification obligation will survive the termination of your relationship with PRT-i and these Terms.
