Clinic Etiquette

• Cell Phones: Please refrain from using electronics once you are in the treatment room. Please turn your phones on silent (no vibration) or completely off. Smart devices should be removed. The treatment room is a place to disconnect from modern stressors, distractions and technology.

• Fragrances: Please avoid wearing perfume, cologne or scented lotions to your appointment. Our clinic is free from artificial chemicals and fragrances. We use only 100% pure therapeutic grade essential oils in the clinic.

• Music: There will be new age/spa music playing during your treatment, if you wish to not have music, or if you have a request, you can either let me know or bring your own ear buds/plugs.
   

** Holly and Theo the therapy dogs are often hanging out at the clinic, they are usually on-duty Monday-Wednesday. These two are very social, well-behaved, hypo-allergenic and just love to greet and cuddle with patients before and after treatments. If you prefer a dog-free environment please just let me know. **
