Complementary wellbeing work is safest when roles are explicit, consent is meaningful and medical, psychological, coaching and practical responsibilities are not blurred.

Start with the guide that describes the immediate question most accurately, then connect it with personal circumstances, the wider iMetaWellness method and the correct professional route.

Direct answer

Clear scope, proportionate information sharing, consent, documented decisions and a reliable referral route. Collaboration should reduce confusion rather than create another layer of unowned advice.
