APPOINTMENTS

You can make an appointment with us in a number of ways including via our website, telephone, text or email.

Upon making a booking, you will receive an email confirming all the important details, along with an email reminder 2 days prior to your appointment.

If this is your first appointment with us, you will also receive a New Client Consultation Form via email the day before your appointment. Please complete this because we will not be able to treat you until you have, and completion on the day will be part of your appointment time.

CANCELLATIONS & LATE ARRIVALS

Cancellation Policy: 24 hours.
We require a minimum of 24 hours’ notice to cancel an appointment. Failure to attend an appointment with less than 24 hours’ notice of cancellation will incur the charge for the full appointment. This is because we may not be able to fill your appointment slot and still need to cover our costs.

Please cancel as soon as possible if a foreseeable event is likely to prevent you from attending, for example, illness or adverse weather conditions. If you need to cancel your appointment at short notice, because of a long-term medical condition which varies from day to day, or because you are more than 37 weeks pregnant, then we shall discuss the cost implications on a case by case basis.

An invoice for any cancellation / ‘no show’ charges will be sent to you by email for payment within 7 days. Following a cancellation, payment must be received before any further bookings can be taken.

Late Arrivals: It is important that our agreed appointment time and duration is adhered to.
We appreciate that sometimes, things happen, and you may arrive a little later or need to leave a bit earlier than planned. This is fine, but we cannot make up the missed time by overrunning or adding time to subsequent appointments.
