Cancellation Policy

​

* I ask that you cancel or change your scheduled appointment within 24 hours to avoid being charged 50% of the session amount

and if not cancelled before 2 hours of the start of your appointment, you will be charged the FULL amount.

​

If you think you have been exposed to Covid or if you do not feel well, please cancel and reschedule your massage.

 

Please arrive on time so you can have the full "hands on" time allotted. I leave 30 minutes between clients to account for a reasonable amount of chatting before and after. I also need this time to change the room over and get ready for my next client.

* If you're running more than 10 minutes late, please call or text me at 310-922-9738

​

What should I know about or expect during my session?

​

For your first massage session with me, try to arrive 5-10 minutes early to fill out a short health intake form.

I try to give you exactly 60/75/90 minutes of hands-on time and I don't deduct time for dressing/undressing, etc. so expect to stay an extra 10 minutes or so after your appointment time. Try your best to allow time before and after your massage to relax, and not to book too closely to other engagements. 

​

I'm a new client, can we chat on the phone before I feel comfortable booking an appointment with you?

*I am currently only accepting new clients for Manual Lymphatic Drainage at this time. Please contact me if you'd like to be added to a waitlist for massage.

 

Absolutely! In fact, if you are a new client and not a referral, I prefer for us to have a quick conversation on the phone before meeting in person. This is not only for your comfort, but also so that I can be sure we are a good fit.

​

​What forms of payment do you accept?

 

I accept cash, check, Visa, Mastercard, Discover, AmEx, CashApp, and Venmo: @opal1312

 

Are you licensed?

 

Yes! I've been practicing massage therapy since 1997 and have an NC state license as well as National Board Certification. 

NC license # 15572

In 2024, I became a Certified Lymphedema Therapist, CLT
