our Spa Policies

Please plan to arrive at least 10 minutes prior to your scheduled service time. Please note all
Guests arriving less than 5 minutes after their scheduled start time may receive a shortened service or, when shortening the service is not possible, the service may be canceled. Not all services are eligible to be shortened.
Guests arriving 5 minutes or more after their scheduled start time, as well as guests who do not arrive for their appointment, will forfeit the scheduled service(s) and be charged 100% of the scheduled service value to the credit card provided to reserve the appointment.
Back-to-Back Appointments: When multiple consecutive services are reserved, they constitute one continuous appointment block for purposes of our late-arrival policy.

Arrival 5 minutes or more after the start of the first scheduled service will result in forfeiture of all services within the reserved appointment block and a charge of 100% of the total scheduled service value to the credit card provided to reserve the appointment.

For the safety and well-being of our guests, all services are subject to modification based on the practitioner’s professional judgment if a contraindication is identified during consultation or at any point during the treatment. Contraindications may include, but are not limited to, medications, medical conditions, or skin sensitivities that make certain modalities unsafe.
In such cases, the service will be modified and an appropriate alternative treatment will be provided to ensure guest safety. The appointment time and originally reserved service will remain charged at the full booked rate. Modifications made for safety reasons do not qualify for refunds.
