FAQs
Appointment Attendance
-
A $50 appointment deposit must be paid at the start of your package to secure your appointment. This will be used in the event a late arrival, late cancellation or no show fee needs to be charged.
We reserve the right to charge this fee on the second occasion of you either arriving late, cancelling late or not attending your appointment. This fee cannot be used towards services or products.
If utilised, an additional $50 deposit is required to make another appointment. The appointment deposit is refundable on your last appointment or if you prefer it will be kept on your account and remains valid for 6 months from your last appointment.
-
We request that you arrive 10 minutes before your appointment.
Arriving late deprives you of precious treatment minutes since each session needs to finish on time as a courtesy to the next client.
You are deemed late if you arrive 10 minutes or more after your scheduled appointment. Depending on our availability and the type of appointment we may cancel, reschedule or shorten your appointment duration.
If you foresee that you will be running late, we appreciate that you call us as early as possible so that we can advise you accordingly.
-
When we book your appointment, we exclusively reserve the therapist, room and time for your treatment. We do not double book or overbook our clients.
To help you keep your appointment, we will send a confirmation message a few days prior. We ask that you reply at least 48 hours prior to your appointment. If for some reason you do not receive your reminder, your appointment remains your responsibility to attend.
If you do need to change your appointment, please provide a minimum of 48 hours’ notice. We request this so that we may offer the appointment time to another client.
While we understand that sometimes circumstances beyond your control can occur to cause you to have to cancel at the last minute or miss your appointment entirely, we appreciate that you notify us as early as possible to ensure smooth running of the clinic.
If you cancel two consecutive appointments, please be aware that we reserve the right to cancel any future bookings. In such cases, we will notify you, and we kindly ask that you contact us to resume your treatment plan.
