Any statement which makes an offer in return for financial gain in posts will be treated as advertising and therefore will be moderated.

If someone specifically asks: "does anyone know of a good yoga teacher?" ... then if you know of someone in that specific area who can help the person who posted the query, you can point them in right direction provided it is not YOU, and there is no direct financial gain involved with the recommendation.
It is acceptable, therefore, to reply to a direct request for help, but if you happen to be a therapist/products supplier/services provider etc., in that specific area you must not include actual contact details in your reply, or invite the person to contact you. You are free to state, however, 'if you are interested, feel free to PM (Private Message) me'.
Conduct of Others:Our members represent a wide variety of religious and spiritual beliefs, when joining in discussions on our forums, expect to come across persons whose ideas, opinions and beliefs may be different from yours. Please approach such encounters with tolerance and an acceptance of others' faiths and beliefs.
Therapy360.co.uk can not monitor all postings made by its members and must rely on the members to abide by the rules of their conduct. Should you have an issue with postings which you feel are derogatory to yourself, are defamatory or offensive, then please contact the forum moderator or Therapy360.co.uk administration, when the topic can be locked.
Should you feel the need to report abuse or threatening behavior to us, please click the "Report Abuse” links or email us directly providing as much information as you can.
The Internet provides the perfect forum for cyberbullies, individuals whose aim is to gain gratification from the distress caused by provoking and tormenting others. The anonymity, ease of provocation, and almost infinite source of targets means the Internet is full of predators; from pedophiles targeting children to serial bullies targeting ... anybody. If you require further guidance on bullying please refer to
http://www.bullyonline.org/workbully/amibeing.htmDisruptive behaviour:You must not disrupt or interfere with discussions, forums, or other community functions. Disruptive behaviour may include creating a disproportionate number of posts or discussions; creating off-topic posts; making statements that are inflammatory; manipulating topics to disrupt conversation; or any behaviour that interferes with conversations or inhibits the ability of others to use and enjoy this website for its intended purposes.
Political DiscussionsT360 is a forum for health and healing and spiritual matters. We also have a variety of posts in other subjects such as Science and Philosophy, Jokes, Student and Training, Books and flim reviews, and others. Please take note that Politics is a subject considered too contentious to be permitted on these forums and is therefore not allowed. There are many websites which are Political in nature and we kindly suggest you visit these should you wish to enter into a Political discussion. Thank you.
Petitions, Charities, Sponsorship or Campaigns:Petitions, Charities, Sponsorship or Campaign posts are not allowed on the forums.
Spam:No repeat posts with the same text should be posted in different forums

DIRECTORY LISTINGS AND PAID ADVERTISINGAll advertisements and listings that appear on this site have been accepted in good faith, however, we recommend that you verify your chosen practitioner is fully qualified in the therapies used for your treatments. Therapy360.co.uk does not make any referrals or recommendations for any specific therapist or alternative/complementary practitioner, nor are we responsible for any individual services rendered or advice given.
COMMERCIAL POSTING RULESTherapy360.co.uk is a community of people interested in complementary health and well being, it is provided as a fantastic resource of information. Advertisers and sponsors support and contribute financially to make this site available to you. This support would not last long if we allowed others to post commercial messages, thus undermining the paid advertising of those that make this site available.
COMMERCIAL POSTINGSIf you sell products or services, the following rules apply:
1. Do not initiate posts or discussion on or refer to your business.
2. Do not discuss product pricing or availability of products.
3. Advertising or soliciting for any activity that may be construed as commercial is not allowed.
4. Posts outside the scope of these rules may be edited or deleted without warning.
If you do post any advertisements you are likely to be put onto moderation, this means that any future posts you make will need to be cleared by a moderator first before it appears on the forums.
Continued disregard for these rules will result in membership being cancelled.
Thanks for your support.
