01ATHVORA Is Not a Medical Provider
ATHVORA provides health, fitness and wellness guidance only. ATHVORA is not a doctor, dietitian, physiotherapist, psychologist, hospital, medical provider or emergency service.
Nothing in the app or on this website constitutes medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, and no doctor–patient relationship is created by using ATHVORA.
02AI-Generated Recommendations
Workouts, meal suggestions, calorie and macronutrient estimates, recovery advice, photo descriptions and coach replies are generated automatically and are informational only. They may be incomplete, inaccurate or unsuitable for your circumstances.
Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before making health, exercise, nutrition, supplement or medication decisions.
03Before You Start
Get professional approval before beginning or changing a programme if you:
- Are pregnant, postpartum or trying to conceive.
- Have a heart condition, high blood pressure, diabetes or a chronic illness.
- Are recovering from surgery, injury or illness.
- Have a disability or mobility limitation.
- Have or have had an eating disorder.
- Take medication that affects heart rate, blood sugar, hydration or balance.
- Are over 45 and largely inactive.
04Emergencies — Stop and Seek Help
ATHVORA is not an emergency service and does not monitor your health. Stop exercising immediately and seek urgent medical help if you experience chest pain, severe shortness of breath, dizziness or fainting, sudden severe pain, suspected fracture, neurological symptoms, or thoughts of self-harm.
In an emergency contact your local emergency number or go to the nearest hospital.
05Tracking and Estimates
Steps, distance, GPS routes, elevation, calories burned, and nutrition values are estimates produced by device sensors and models. They can differ meaningfully from laboratory or clinical measurements and should not be used for medical decisions.
06Progress Photos
Progress photo analysis describes visible changes only. It does not detect, screen for or diagnose any medical condition, including skin conditions. Any health concern about your body should be assessed by a healthcare professional.
07Professional Advice Always Wins
If guidance from ATHVORA conflicts with instructions from your doctor, physiotherapist, dietitian or another qualified professional, follow the professional. Never delay or disregard professional medical advice because of something you read in the app.
08Your Responsibility
You use ATHVORA voluntarily and at your own risk. Exercise carries an inherent risk of injury. To the maximum extent permitted by law, ATHVORA accepts no liability for injury, illness or loss arising from your use of the service. Questions can be sent to support@athvora.co.za.
