Terms of use

By using Yojo Notes you agree to these terms. They are short, and we have tried to write them plainly.

Health information

Everything on this site is general information for adults. It is not medical advice, it cannot take your history or examine you, and it is no substitute for a doctor, pharmacist, midwife or other qualified professional. Do not stop or change a treatment because of something you read here. If you have symptoms that are severe, sudden or getting worse, seek care straight away (in Japan, call 119 in an emergency).

Essential oils, herbal medicines, baths, stretches and diet changes can all cause harm when used wrongly. Follow the safety notes in each article, and ask a professional first if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, caring for a baby or young child, living with a long-term condition or taking regular medicine.

Accuracy

We check our articles carefully and review them when guidance changes, but medicine moves on and mistakes happen. We cannot promise that every page is complete, current or error-free. If you find an error, please tell us.

Copyright

The text and photographs on Yojo Notes belong to Yojo Notes or are used with permission. You are welcome to quote a short passage with a link back to the page. Please do not copy whole articles or images to another site without asking.

Links

We link to other websites when they help, but we do not control them and are not responsible for their content. Anyone may link to any page on Yojo Notes without asking.

Liability

To the extent the law allows, Yojo Notes is not liable for any loss or harm arising from use of the site or reliance on its contents.
