• Booking - The spa's peak hours are afternoons, weekends and holidays so if the time you want falls within these hours, book as far in advance as possible. Mid-week appointments are more likely accommodated on shorter notice. Please mention if you will be using a gift certificate at the time of making your reservation. A credit card is required to hold your reservation. Please mention any medical condition when you book your appointment.
• Specials - Last minute specials are offered so be sure to call and inquire.
• Therapists - Both male and female therapists are on staff. If you have a preference, please let the spa know.
• Check in - Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your appointment to allow for check in, client/therapist interview, etc.
• Late Arrival - The spa strives to keep appointments son schedule, so if you arrive late, and the room or therapist is booked after your session, your session may have to be shortened.
• Cancellations - If you need to cancel your appointment, please provide as much notice as possible. The spa requires at least 24 hours to cancel a singe service, 48 hours or more for a package and 72 hours for holidays. No shows will be charged 100% of the appointment total.
• Communicating - Your treatment, your time and your body are yours and the spa wants you to thoroughly enjoy your experience. Please be sure to communicate preferences to your therapist - the amount of pressure, room temperature, whether you want conversation or silence or you would like different music. Please let your provider or staff member know immediately if you are uncomfortable for any reason. Let your therapist or aesthetician know of any medical concerns.
• Attire - Casual attire is suggested - something you can easily slip off and on without fussing. The spa provides any necessary towels, robe and slippers for you to wear during your visit. The best way to receive a massage or other bodywork is to be unclothed, you are not required to be naked if it makes you uncomfortable. The therapists are trained in the "art of draping.: They will leave the treatment room while you get under the sheet on the table, keep you covered at all times except for the area of the body they are working on, and will leave the treatment room before you get up from the table. If modesty is an issue, the spa can recommend treatments that can be done while you are fully clothed.

FYI

• Jewelry - Most therapies flow more easily without the interference of jewelry. The spa recommends removing neck and wrist ornaments. Be mindful of not leaving valuables behind. You'll be sparkling well enough after your treatments!
• Shaving - If you need to shave (particularly beardless men receiving a facial), do it at least two hours before your appointment. If you have booked a body scrub, shaving the day before is highly recommended since rubbing salt into the slighted razor wound is not a very relaxing experience.
• Sun and Spa - Please be conscious that some treatments may expose brand new skin to the elements. An all over application of quality, high SPF product is recommended especially for the first few days after the reeatments. The spa's facial treatments are finished with a moisturizer with a sun protection factor of 15 or above.
• Food and Beverage - It is best no to receive bodywork on a full stomach, so schedule meals or snacks to allow at least an hour before your treatment. Drink water, especially if heat therapies are part of your package. Since bodywork introduces clean, oxygenated and nourished fluids into your tissues and stimulates your body to purge toxins, it is important to flush them out by drinking plenty of water - and be aware of what you're putting into your nice clean body after your treatments, especially refined sugars, high, fats, caffeine and most importantly, alcohol - any of these may have a stronger effect on you than normal. Toxins that are not flushed from your body can be reabsorbed and may give you a "toxin hangover." If this happens, drink more water!
• Cell Phones - Because the day spa environment should be a tranquil and stress-reducing experience, please turn your cell phone off while in the spa.
• Gratuities- Gratuities are not included in the spa's prices but are gladly accepted. Calculate the amount of your tip as you would in a restaurant - between 15-20%, but you may of course leave more or less, depending on the quality of the service.
• Check out- When your spa treatments are completed, you will be checked out at the reception desk. Please don't hesitate to request water or tea before you leave. Gratuities may be added to your charge card or may be left in a tip envelope available at the front desk.
