Fecta provides general educational and personal-development information. It is not medical care and does not diagnose, treat, or prevent a medical condition.

Professional advice

Speak with a qualified healthcare professional before starting or changing exercise, rehabilitation, nutrition, mental-health, or other health practices—especially if you have symptoms, an injury, a disability, a medical condition, take medication, are pregnant, or are unsure what is safe for you.

Exercise and movement risks

Physical activity carries risk. Choose an appropriate level, use safe equipment and surroundings, and stop if you experience unusual pain, chest pain, severe shortness of breath, faintness, new weakness, loss of coordination, or another concerning symptom.

Emergencies

If you believe you are experiencing a medical or safety emergency in Canada, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. Do not wait for a response from Fecta or rely on the Fecta Guide for emergency help.

Community providers

Fecta may help you discover local fitness, health, recreation, or wellbeing providers. Confirm that a provider and activity are appropriate for your needs. A listing does not guarantee qualifications, safety, availability, or results.

Your responsibility

You are responsible for deciding whether to participate and for seeking professional guidance when needed. Modify or stop an activity when it does not feel appropriate or safe.
