Why Get a Massage? | Policies | Health Intake Form | Feedback Form | Links
PoliciesScope of Service: SeaRhythms therapists provide massage to adults whose health status does not indicate any contraindications. Massage is provided for the purpose of relaxation, stress reduction and/or relief of muscular tension. We do not diagnose illness or disease or perform any medical treatments. Health Intake: Our goal is to contribute to your overall health and well being, and it is important that we are aware of your current health conditions. Before we can provide your first massage, we require that you complete and sign a health intake form. You only need to do this once -- at subsequent appointments we will only need to update your information, as needed. We ask that you complete this form before your first appointment and bring it with you, so we can start your session on time. Your information is used only for the purpose of ensuring the best possible massage experience for you, and is held in strictest confidence. A Doctor's Referral is required if you have any of the following conditions: uncontrolled high blood pressure and/or diabetes, blood clots, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pregnancy, recent head, neck, or spine injury, recent surgery or fracture, cancer, any health condition which seriously impairs vital organ function, and any other condition we determine needs doctor approval for massage. Massage will NOT be provided to those who: 1) have an acute and/or infectious illness, a fever, or are very recently over an illness; 2) are intoxicated; 3) have an infectious or inflammatory skin condition (exception: if the skin condition is localized we may offer a modified massage which avoids the area in question); 4) have any other condition we determine poses too great a risk to the client or the therapist. Appropriate Conduct: Massage sessions are not of a sexual nature. Sexual or provocative behavior during a massage session is always unethical and inappropriate. Such behavior will result in immediate termination of the session with payment due in full. Future appointments will be denied. Payment Information: We accept cash, checks, Discover, American Express, Visa and Master Card. All fees are payable at the time of service. Cancellations / Missed / Late Appointments: As a courtesy, please arrive on time and always allow at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel. When you book an appointment, we reserve that time just for you and may turn other business away in order to honor it. Therefore, if a 24 hour advance notice is not given and you do not keep your scheduled appointment, a cancellation fee of the full amount of your intended session will be due. If you had intended to pay with a gift certificate and you miss your appointment without sufficient notice, the certificate will be voided. If you are late to your appointment, your session will be shortened accordingly, with the full amount due. At our discretion, exceptions can be made in certain situations. Please contact us to discuss. Online Bookings: For all online bookings, we will contact you within 24 hours to confirm the details of your appointment. Your appointment is not finalized until we have contacted you to confirm.
