APPOINTMENT POLICY
Bookings
Payment is required upon booking. The consultation and changing time is included in the allocated treatment time.
Arrival time
Please arrive on time for your appointment and arrive no earlier than at least five minutes prior to the start time of your appointment.
If you don’t turn up for the scheduled appointment, no refund will be issued. It will be under the discretion of Leah Hudson if the missed appointment will be carried over to another booking at a convenient time at no extra cost.
Turning up to an appointment late
If you are late to an appointment, this could result in a reduced treatment time, or a cancellation charged at full price.
Pregnancy
If you are pregnant, please let us know before you attend your appointment so that I can ensure you have the safest and most comfortable experience with me.
Cancellations
I understand things crop up at the last minute and changes to our day can happen unexpectedly. If you need to cancel your appointment, please do so as soon as possible so I can offer the appointment to someone else.
I will be happy to reschedule the appointment or refund you, however if you cancel the appointment in 48 hours or less, no refund will be issued. On the basis that payment hasn’t already been taken, I require payment at the full price of the booked treatment.
If I have to cancel appointments then I will aim to give 48 hours’ notice and will either reschedule the appointment, or refund you within five working days.
Location
There is free on the road parking available outside of the premises. If you are arriving by bus, the nearest bus stop is approx. a five minute walk. Leah Marie Holistics is located in a small cosy garden sanctuary and there is only space for one person per treatment.
Accessibility
To access the premises, there are a small number of steps before you reach the treatment area, so if you need support walking up the steps, please let me know upon booking and I will come and help you.
All of the treatments requires you to be able to get on and off a treatment couch so that you can lie down for your treatment. I want to make my treatments as accessible as possible, therefore if you are unable to get on to the treatment couch then I can adapt the session to suit you. This requires a little more preparation on my part, so please could you let me know upon booking your treatment so I can adapt to your needs and ensure the room is ready for you.
Attendee behaviour
I will end a treatment immediately if the client demonstrates any inappropriate behaviour.
I will refuse to treat a client if I believe them to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
I will ask clients to vacate where necessary if clients show any signs of aggression or are behaving disrespectfully.
Consultation form
I will require you to complete a consultation form prior to your treatment and discuss any concerns you may have. See the Privacy Policy for more information on this.
