Please read through them carefully.

First time appointments booked online require prepayment to secure the appointment. 

 

Late Policy:

• Please arrive 5 minutes prior to your appointment time to allow time for dressing and intake.

• If you arrive late, you forfeit that time.

 I understand that things happen. I try to accommodate for those moments if time allows. 

I more than likely have an appointment after you and cannot make that lost time up. 

Please try to be on time and even a few minutes early to avoid having your appointment cut short. 

Full Payment is due for the full appointment and any time if extended.

• A 24 hour notice is required for cancellation. Failure to cancel with in the 24 hours, you will be charged 50% of the service.

• Up to day of appointment and NO CALL/NO SHOWS will be charged 100% of the appointment.

Please understand that when I schedule your appointment, I block that time for you and only you. 

Not giving me adequate notice causes me to lose a significant amount of income. I rely on your session as my income.

I understand that things come up. Life happens! You get sick, I get sick. Each situation will be considered on an individual basis.

Prior no shows and late cancellations will be a factor in the decision.

Benefits of Massage

​

Experts estimate that upwards of 90% of disease is stress related. Perhaps nothing ages us faster, internally and externally, than high stress.  Massage is an effective tool for managing this stress, which translates into: decreased anxiety, enhanced sleep quality, greater energy, improved concentration, increased circulation, and reduced fatigue.

​

Massage can also help specifically address a number of health issues.

Bodywork can:

• Promote tissue regeneration, reducing scar tissue and stretch marks

• Pump oxygen and nutrients into tissues improving circulation
