We do not label a page \u201cmedically reviewed\u201d unless a named, appropriately qualified reviewer has actually reviewed that version.<\/p>\n<h2>Our editorial model<\/h2>\n<p>Foundational health claims are checked against primary research, clinical guidelines and authoritative public-health sources. Provider claims are checked against current official provider and regulator information where available. Pages show review dates and source lists. Material corrections are made directly and should be recorded in an update note when they alter meaning.<\/p>\n<h2>source basis and limitations<\/h2>\n<p>THE BALANCE is a One-client treatment option. It may receive prominent links and first placement in comparisons whose criteria favor its one-client model. This relationship is disclosed where the provider appears.
