Common Questions
What kind of payment do you accept?
I accept cash or credit cards! Cash prices are as listed, credit card pricing includes a 3% processing fee.
Do you accept tips?
I do not! I've set my prices to sustain my business and not need to rely on the uncertainty of variable tipping. Flat rates keep things simple for both me and my clients. If you enjoyed your session, the best offering you could give me is to re-book, leave a review, or refer a friend!
Do you offer pregnancy massage in the first trimester?
Yes, I do! You may have heard that massage can be dangerous in the first trimester. This is simply misinformation that has circulated widely. There is no substantive research linking massage therapy to fetal harm. When safety guidelines are followed, massage is safe for all stages of pregnancy. The reason many businesses will not offer massage in the first trimester is to avoid liability. If you have more questions about this topic, please feel free to reach out and we can discuss!
Do you only work on female clients?
No! I am open to working on men, women, and nonbinary folks. Where you are positioned on the gender spectrum is irrelevant to the care you'll receive from me.
Do you accept insurance?
I don't personally bill insurance, but I am happy to send you receipts for our sessions that you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement/coverage. I have clients who regularly do this with no issues—you should reach out to your provider for information on how this may work with your plan.
What is your cancellation policy?
I have a 24 hour cancellation policy. If you cancel within 24 hours, the full price of the session is owed. You will receive a text to confirm your appointment 72 hours before, and a reminder 24 hours before. Please reach out as soon as you know you won't be able to make an appointment and we can work together to find a solution. No call/no shows will be charged for the full session.
What should I do if I'm sick the day of my appointment?
Please reach out to me as soon as possible if you're feeling unwell. Do not show up to your appointment sick! I am happy to reschedule you for a later date with no cancellation fee. Likewise, if I am feeling unwell I will reach out with as much notice as possible to reschedule.
What if an emergency happens and I need to cancel day of?
Life happens and sometimes things beyond our control shift our plans. Please give me as much notice as possible so I can try and fill your spot. Alternatively, you're welcome to send a friend in your place if you're unable to make an appointment unexpectedly. For true emergencies, we can work to reschedule you and you will not be charged for the missed session.
