Affiliate Disclosure

Affiliate, Advertising & Sponsorship Disclosure

Last Updated: September 27, 2026

FlexologyGuide.com, also referred to as FlexGuide or FlexologyGuide, is committed to transparency about how the website is funded and how commercial relationships may relate to the products, services, studios, brands, and companies discussed on the site.

FlexGuide may earn revenue through affiliate relationships, sponsored listings, advertising, paid partnerships, referral arrangements, industry sponsorships, and the sale of market research or other products and services.

These commercial relationships help support the operation, research, database development, content creation, Studio Search, and other features of FlexGuide.

Commercial relationships do not determine FlexGuide’s editorial conclusions, factual reporting, research standards, safety information, or organic provider-search results unless a placement is clearly identified as sponsored or promoted.

Some links on FlexGuide are affiliate links.

If you click an affiliate link and purchase a product, subscribe to a service, book a service, or complete another qualifying transaction, FlexGuide may receive a commission or referral payment.

You generally do not pay a higher price because you used an affiliate link.

Affiliate relationships may include retailers, manufacturers, service providers, online marketplaces, fitness or wellness platforms, software providers, booking services, and other companies relevant to FlexGuide’s coverage.

When an affiliate relationship is associated with a specific recommendation, review, buying guide, comparison, or product link, FlexGuide will provide an appropriate disclosure where required so readers can understand the financial relationship.

Affiliate links contain tracking information that allows a merchant, affiliate network, or other partner to determine that a visitor was referred by FlexGuide.

Depending on the affiliate program, tracking may involve:

  • Referral identifiers
  • Cookies
  • Affiliate codes
  • Promotional codes
  • Tracking parameters
  • Similar attribution technologies

If a qualifying transaction occurs, FlexGuide may receive compensation from the merchant or affiliate network.

The merchant, retailer, or service provider processes the transaction according to its own terms and privacy practices.

Editorial Independence

Affiliate commissions do not purchase favorable editorial coverage.

FlexGuide’s editorial content is intended to help readers understand products, services, providers, brands, movement methods, recovery technologies, and other options relevant to their needs.

When evaluating products or services, FlexGuide aims to distinguish among:

  • Verified facts
  • Manufacturer or provider claims
  • Independent research
  • Available evidence
  • Pricing and specifications
  • Editorial analysis
  • Commercial relationships

The availability or size of an affiliate commission does not determine whether a product, service, brand, or provider receives favorable coverage.

FlexGuide may discuss or recommend products and services for which no affiliate relationship exists.

FlexGuide may also criticize, rank below alternatives, or decline to recommend a product or service even when an affiliate relationship exists.

Product Reviews and Recommendations

FlexGuide may publish reviews, comparisons, buying guides, product roundups, educational guides, and other content that discusses commercial products or services.

A recommendation should not be interpreted as a guarantee that a product or service will be appropriate for every person.

Product characteristics, pricing, availability, warranties, subscriptions, features, and other commercial terms can change. Readers should confirm current details with the manufacturer, retailer, or service provider before making a purchase.

FlexGuide will not claim that a product has been personally tested unless that testing actually occurred.

If FlexGuide receives a product, service, travel, access, or other benefit at no cost or at a discount in connection with coverage, that material relationship will be disclosed where appropriate.

Amazon Associates Disclosure

FlexGuide may participate in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program that allows participating websites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated Amazon websites.

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Purchases made through eligible Amazon links may generate a commission for FlexGuide without increasing the price paid by the customer.

Amazon controls product availability, pricing, shipping, returns, and other transaction terms. Those terms may change at any time.

Sponsored Studio Listings

FlexGuide may offer sponsored, featured, promoted, or enhanced listings within Studio Search, directories, brand pages, market pages, or other provider-discovery features.

A studio, franchise, brand, or other business may pay FlexGuide for increased visibility or additional listing features.

Sponsored placement will be identified as sponsored, promoted, featured, or with another clear disclosure when required.

Payment for a sponsored listing does not mean that FlexGuide has determined that the provider is medically appropriate, clinically superior, safer, better qualified, or otherwise preferable for every user.

Sponsored status does not replace a consumer’s responsibility to evaluate a provider based on factors relevant to that consumer, including:

  • Services offered
  • Instructor or practitioner qualifications
  • Pricing
  • Membership terms
  • Location
  • Schedule
  • Class or session format
  • Personal goals
  • Individual health considerations

Where organic Studio Search results and sponsored placements appear together, sponsored status should be distinguishable from ordinary database results.

Advertising

FlexGuide may display advertising provided directly by advertisers or through third-party advertising platforms.

Advertising may appear in:

  • Articles
  • Studio Search
  • Provider profiles
  • Category pages
  • Brand pages
  • Newsletters
  • Industry content
  • Other areas of the site

The presence of an advertisement does not constitute an editorial endorsement of the advertiser, product, service, or claim.

Advertisers may use cookies or similar technologies subject to applicable law and FlexGuide’s Privacy Policy.

Sponsored Content and Paid Partnerships

FlexGuide may occasionally publish sponsored content, paid collaborations, partner content, or other commercially supported material.

When content has been created or published as part of a paid relationship, FlexGuide will provide an appropriate disclosure so readers can identify the commercial relationship.

Labels may include terms such as:

  • Sponsored
  • Advertisement
  • Paid Partnership
  • Sponsored by
  • Presented by

The specific label may depend on the format and nature of the relationship.

Sponsored content should not be presented in a way that intentionally disguises advertising as independent editorial coverage.

Free Products, Services, Access, and Other Compensation

A material relationship does not have to involve a direct cash payment.

FlexGuide may receive:

  • Free products
  • Free services
  • Product samples
  • Trial access
  • Event admission
  • Travel or accommodations
  • Discounts
  • Complimentary memberships
  • Early product access
  • Other benefits

When such a relationship could reasonably affect how a reader evaluates an endorsement or recommendation, FlexGuide will disclose the relationship where appropriate.

Referral and Lead-Generation Relationships

FlexGuide may receive compensation when a user:

  • Requests information
  • Contacts a participating provider
  • Schedules a consultation
  • Books a service
  • Signs up for an offer
  • Becomes a customer
  • Completes another qualifying action

This type of compensation may be structured as a referral fee, lead fee, cost-per-click payment, cost-per-lead payment, revenue share, or another commercial arrangement.

When a provider pays for leads or referrals, that relationship does not automatically make the provider more appropriate for a particular consumer.

Industry Reports and Market Intelligence

FlexGuide produces or may produce industry reports, market intelligence, datasets, research products, sponsored research, and custom research.

FlexGuide may receive payment from companies that purchase reports, commission research, sponsor research, advertise to industry audiences, or otherwise maintain commercial relationships with FlexGuide.

These commercial relationships do not authorize a company to alter independent FlexGuide data, methodology, conclusions, or factual reporting.

If a specific report is sponsored or commissioned by a company and that relationship is material to understanding the report, FlexGuide will disclose the sponsorship or commissioning relationship.

Brand and Franchise Relationships

FlexGuide may have commercial relationships with brands, franchises, individual studios, manufacturers, service providers, or parent companies that are also covered editorially on the site.

Such relationships may include:

  • Sponsored listings
  • Advertising
  • Affiliate arrangements
  • Data partnerships
  • Report purchases
  • Research engagements
  • Referral arrangements
  • Commercial partnerships

A commercial relationship does not automatically result in favorable editorial coverage.

FlexGuide aims to maintain a distinction between commercial relationships and independent editorial or database decisions.

Rankings and Comparisons

Where FlexGuide publishes rankings, comparisons, or “best” lists, compensation should not secretly determine placement.

If payment directly affects visibility or placement, the placement should be identified as sponsored or promoted where appropriate.

Organic comparisons should be based on the criteria described in the relevant article, guide, or methodology when such methodology is necessary to understand the comparison.

FlexGuide does not guarantee that every available product, provider, or service is included in a comparison.

Reviews and Testimonials

FlexGuide does not intend to present fake or misleading reviews or testimonials.

If FlexGuide publishes an endorsement, review, testimonial, or other statement involving a material relationship that readers would not reasonably expect, that relationship will be disclosed where appropriate.

Compensation does not authorize an advertiser or partner to require FlexGuide to make false or misleading claims.

Health and Wellness Content

FlexGuide covers assisted stretching, Pilates, Barre, recovery services, stretching, mobility, fitness, wellness products, recovery technology, footwear, plantar fasciitis-related topics, and other health-adjacent subjects.

Commercial relationships do not change FlexGuide’s responsibility to distinguish wellness education from medical advice.

Information on FlexGuide is provided for general informational and educational purposes and is not a substitute for diagnosis, treatment, or individualized medical advice from an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

Affiliate or sponsorship relationships should never be interpreted as evidence that a product or service is medically necessary, clinically proven, safe for every individual, or appropriate for a particular medical condition.

Pricing and Availability

Product prices, studio pricing, membership terms, discounts, promotions, inventory, and service availability may change after FlexGuide content is published.

FlexGuide may receive affiliate commissions based on a transaction, but the final price and transaction terms are determined by the merchant or provider.

Readers should verify current pricing and terms before making a purchase or entering into a membership or service agreement.

External Websites

FlexGuide links to third-party retailers, manufacturers, studios, service providers, booking platforms, affiliate partners, and other external websites.

FlexGuide does not control those websites.

Their:

  • Privacy practices
  • Terms of service
  • Pricing
  • Product claims
  • Shipping policies
  • Refund policies
  • Membership agreements
  • Data practices

are governed by their own policies.

Disclosure Placement

This page provides a general explanation of FlexGuide’s commercial relationships.

However, when a specific article, recommendation, link, review, video, social post, sponsored placement, or other piece of content involves a material financial or commercial relationship that should be disclosed, FlexGuide may provide an additional disclosure close to that content.

Examples may include:

“FlexGuide may earn a commission if you purchase through links on this page.”

“This article contains affiliate links. FlexGuide may receive a commission from qualifying purchases.”

“Sponsored listing.”

“Paid partnership.”

A disclosure on this page is not intended to replace a more specific disclosure when one is appropriate closer to the commercial content.

Our Commitment to Readers

FlexGuide’s goal is to help readers:

  • Understand their options
  • Compare services and products
  • Evaluate brands
  • Find providers
  • Make more informed decisions

Revenue supports the operation of FlexGuide, but commercial relationships should be transparent and should not be presented as independent evidence that a product, studio, service, or brand is superior.

Changes to This Disclosure

FlexGuide may update this Affiliate, Advertising & Sponsorship Disclosure as its business model, partnerships, advertising programs, affiliate relationships, or services change.

The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page will be revised when material updates are made.
