Terms & Conditions

Last updated: April 2026  ·  Breathcraft, Lisbon, Portugal
These Terms & Conditions govern your use of the Breathcraft website and the services provided by João Tomé, trading as Breathcraft, based in Lisbon, Portugal. By booking a service or using this website, you agree to these terms. Please read them carefully.

1. The service

Breathcraft provides private 1:1 breathwork sessions and an ongoing weekly group (collectively, "the Services"). All Services are delivered by João Tomé, a trained Generative Breathwork practitioner.

Breathcraft is not a medical or clinical service. The Services do not constitute therapy, psychotherapy, counselling, or medical treatment, and are not a substitute for professional mental health care. If you are in acute mental health crisis, please contact a qualified clinician.

2. Eligibility

By booking a Service, you confirm that:

  • You are 18 years of age or older.
  • You have disclosed any medical conditions, medications, or mental health history relevant to breathwork during the application or discovery call process.
  • You are not in acute mental health crisis, active psychosis, or under active clinical supervision for a condition that may be contraindicated for breathwork.

If you are unsure whether the work is appropriate for you, raise it on the discovery call. We will be honest about fit.

3. Booking and payment

1:1 sessions: Sessions are booked following a discovery call and free first session. Rates and payment schedule are agreed directly and invoiced monthly or per container as specified at booking.

Group: A seat in the ongoing weekly group is confirmed on agreement of the sliding-scale rate discussed on the discovery call. The group runs on a rolling monthly basis with a one-month minimum.

All fees are stated in euros and are inclusive of any applicable taxes unless otherwise stated.

4. Cancellations and refunds

1:1 sessions: Sessions cancelled with more than 48 hours notice may be rescheduled at no charge. Cancellations within 48 hours are charged at the full session rate. João reserves the right to reschedule sessions with reasonable notice.

Group: The group runs on a rolling monthly basis with a one-month minimum. To leave, let João know; your seat closes at the end of your current paid month and opens for someone new. Monthly fees already paid are non-refundable once the month has begun.

If Breathcraft needs to cancel a session for any reason, it will be rescheduled or the relevant fee refunded.

5. Participation and conduct

The Services involve active participation. You agree to:

  • Engage honestly and in good faith in the work.
  • Complete any daily practice or between-session exercises as assigned.
  • Attend sessions punctually. Late arrivals may not be accommodated.
  • Treat other participants and the practitioner with respect. Disruptive conduct may result in removal from the programme without refund.

6. Health and safety

Breathwork can produce strong physical and emotional responses. You participate voluntarily and accept that:

  • You have disclosed all relevant health information prior to beginning the work.
  • You will inform João immediately if you develop a health condition after booking that may affect your participation.
  • You take responsibility for your own physical and emotional safety and will communicate if you need to pause or stop at any time.

João reserves the right to decline or discontinue working with any participant where there is a reasonable concern for their safety or the safety of others.

7. Confidentiality

What you share in sessions is held in confidence. João will not disclose your personal information to third parties except as required by law or where there is a serious risk of harm to you or others.

Group sessions: participants are asked to maintain confidentiality about the personal disclosures of fellow participants. Breathcraft cannot guarantee confidentiality by third parties in group settings.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Breathcraft and João Tomé shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Services. Our total liability for any claim shall not exceed the amount paid for the specific Service giving rise to the claim.

Nothing in these terms excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be excluded under Portuguese law.
