Cancellation Policy
We understand that life has its unplanned interruptions and we also realize your time is very valuable. Our Massage Therapists also value their time. In order for us to serve our clients better, we have instituted the following policies:
- You may cancel your appointment 24 hours prior to your appointment and receive a massage credit for future use.
- Same day cancellations will be charged 100% of the scheduled appointments cost.
- If you do not call to cancel or do not show up for your appointment you will be charged full price for the scheduled service.
- Please arrive ten minutes early for your first time session so you will have time to fill out a health intake form.
Thank you for your cooperation. We look forward to working with you!
What to Expect From Your First Massage Appointment
- Check in at front desk. The massage therapist will meet you there.
- Client and therapist will discuss any particular condition that has brought client in (e.g. sore neck, headaches) or any other pertinent information on your online intake form.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a massage hurt?
A massage should not hurt unless the therapist is working on a specific injury or source of acute muscle pain. A good therapist should periodically check with client during massage about the amount of pressure to make sure the client is comfortable. If for some reason the therapist is not checking in the client should feel free to say if pressure is adequate or not.
How far should I undress?
We ask each client to undress to their comfort level. Most people leave their underwear on. The client is covered with a sheet at all times except for the part of the body that is being worked on.
How Often Should I Get a Massage?
This answer is dependent on each individual. Many clients get a one-hour massage once a month. (Ask about our Massage Club to get the best value for a monthly massage!)
Length of Appointment?
Appointments range from 30 min to 2 hours. Please show up 10 minutes prior to appointment time.
Are there age restrictions?
Anyone 15 years of age or under must have a parent/guardian present in the treatment room during the massage. Kids ages 16 and 17 must have a parent/guardian sign off on the massage prior to the service. Please refer to this link for more information.
