No! It's not a typo!
Our founder, Tu Van Trieu, specifically chose to use the old, traditional way of spelling "Helthe" - pronounced the same as 'health' - because it reflects a time when caring for yourself and others was more about wellness than disease. Read more in our About section.

For Customers/Clients
No! You can get connected to Wellness Providers in your area and read our informational articles for free. You only pay a nominal fee if you are also joining as a Wellness Provider.
All Helthe Connect Wellness Providers attest to their own college or association's Code of Ethics and must agree to our Terms and Conditions, part of which describes our mandated confidentiality.
We protect your privacy and confidentiality while using our site. We never share information with third-party providers.
We do not store your personal payment information, as all transactions go through Stripe, a secure payment portal used worldwide.
While we require our Wellness Providers to denote their associations and attest that they have the appropriate licenses and/or provider insurance (where applicable), it is up to you, the Customer or Client, to go through the process of vetting the Providers and choose the ones you feel most comfortable working with to meet your needs.
Start by joining, then go back to the homepage and search for either a Wellness Provider in your chosen location (searchable by location or by wellness modality) or, if you already know the name of the Provider you want to book with, enter their name in the search bar.
You'll be taken to a different screen depending on how you search but the result will be the same - you will see the Service offered and you can click on the service and begin the booking process there.
Helthe Connect uses Stripe, a secure platform used worldwide, to process all payments. So, whether you buy a yoga DVD or book a counselling session, the process is the same.
You pay upfront through Helthe Connect, using any major debit or credit card. All applicable taxes are also added to the charge. No cash sales are allowed.
Payments are deposited directly to the Wellness Provider using Stripe. We do not store your personal financial information.

GST/HST
GST is a tax for all goods and services, excluding exempt supplies. In order to charge and remit GST (or HST, depending on your province), you need to first register for a GST/HST account. The following provinces collect HST: New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Prince Edward Island. Please consult with CRA or your accountant.
If you make less than $30,000 in revenue over 12 months, you are considered a small business and do not have to register for a GST/HST account. The first time you exceed $30,000 in revenue over 12 months, you must register for a GST/HST account and start charging and remitting GST/HST, even if you make less than $30,000 the following year.
You can also voluntarily charge and remit GST/HST, even if you make less than $30,000 a year. You will still need to register for a GST/HST account first.
PST/QST
PST is a sales tax for all taxable goods, unless exempt. In general, you are considered a small business if you make less than $10,000 in revenue over 12 months, and you do not need to charge and remit PST. Please consult with your accountant or check with your provincial taxation division.
