Disease\n treatment, diagnosis, cure, or prevention language is prohibited in all\n markets. Efficacy claims require citation of specific supporting studies\n and quantified outcomes. Agents must not introduce comparative therapeutic\n claims (e.g., \"better than physical therapy\") that imply medical\n equivalence or superiority.\n restricted_claims: >\n Any claim that a product diagnoses, treats, cures, or prevents a named\n disease or medical condition requires legal review before use. Claims\n citing specific clinical study results must reproduce the study's exact\n quantified language and must not extrapolate beyond the study's stated\n scope or population.\n```\n\n## Escalation protocol\n\nWhen an agent cannot resolve a request within these boundaries, the correct output is:\n\n> \"Please seek the advice of your qualified health care professionals with any questions or concerns you may have regarding your individual needs and any medical conditions.\"\n\nDo not attempt to approximate medical guidance, soften a contraindication, or provide a workaround. Escalate and stop.\n\n## Evidence record\n\nThe following attributable source language is preserved because it materially constrains this profile.\n\n### Owner-confirmed evidence\n\n> Therabody uses 'clinically proven' and efficacy claims only when tied to specific cited studies and quantified results, e.g., muscle microcirculation peaked at over 456% above baseline.\n\nSource: Public source\n\n### Owner-confirmed evidence\n\n> Therabody lists specific contraindications where device use may be inappropriate and a medical professional should be consulted, including pacemaker/ICD, DVT, cancer/tumors, bleeding disorders, uncontrolled hypertension, pregnancy, and application to face/throat/genitalia.\n\nSource: Public source\n\n### Published evidence\n\n> Direct application to the face, head, throat, neck, or genitalia\n\nSource: therabody.com — https://www.therabody.com/pages/precautions\n", "signature": "JNE/qvThl9RTFhXPR0ARIDkvARayltonfhaXSPUrfy+4kR7afRYl0E9zzPor8NILTtuVUE2SM89LsMexBzXQAg==", "sha256": "563cbb4ef4f495c640afd0296fad921bd712904ffeea39d5f6083d6923aefb29", "kid": "v1", "content_type": "text/markdown; charset=utf-8", "html_url": "https://registry.encodedbrands.ai/brands/therabody-ca22efbf/files/boundaries", "json_url": "https://registry.encodedbrands.ai/brands/therabody-ca22efbf/files/boundaries/data.json", "source_url": "https://registry.encodedbrands.ai/brands/therabody-ca22efbf/source/boundaries.md", "canonical_source_url": "https://registry.brandcontextprotocol.dev/therabody-ca22efbf/.well-known/brand/boundaries.md" } ] }
