1. Introduction 

All treatments provided by Blissful Serenity Massage Therapies (we) are booked online and will last for the specified duration purchased, whether the massage takes place in our therapy room or in your premises. i.e. a 60 minute treatment will last 60 minutes.

  • You will receive confirmation and reminders for the booking via email and text message.
  • Please complete our consultation form prior to treatment. This will only take you five minutes. Clients will then receive their consultation in addition to their treatment. This form will be sent to you once you have made your booking.
  • Treatments will only be conducted if we deem the treatment is safe for the client to receive.
  • GP/Consultant permission may be required before treatments can be provided.
2. Payment terms

All massage sessions are by appointment only. This helps us to ensure all clients will receive their massage without having to wait.

Payment will be collected in two instalments – 50% on booking and 50%, less any promotional discount at the initial consultation, and no later. No arrangements required to provide to faciltate a massage will be made until the deposit of 50% is received into our bank account.

There is an option to pay in full when booking online so that a qualifying discount coupon may be redeemed. 

  • We accept payments in cash, bank transfer or by credit card for payment of the balance due at the massage session. Initial payments must be paid by debit/credit card online.
  • Invoices will be sent to clients electronically to confirm payments due, and paid.
  • If the therapist is unable to collect the final payment, for whatever reason, the massage will not proceed and the initial deposit of 50% will be retained to cover the time and expense incurred in advance of the session booked.
3. Mobile massage service
  • A parking space should ideally be made available to allow us to minimal time and effort to move our equipment from the car and into your premises.
  • Blissful Serenity Massage Therapies have the right to charge for any additional expense incurred travelling to your location. This may include additional time taken to reach your property beyond our limit of 30 minutes travelling time; congestion or parking fees incurred; but these items may not be exclusive.
  • The price paid allows for an additional 15 minutes to set up and dismantle our equipment when travelling to your location.
  • Sufficient space is required to accommodate our massage table and to allow room for walking around it, while working.
  • We will not be held liable for any accidental damage caused to property while on your premises.
4. Inappropriate Behaviour

We will exercise our right to terminate a treatment immediately if a client demonstrates inappropriate or sexual behaviour; and makes any unreasonable requests.

5. Cancellation Policy
  • A booking is confirmed once a time, date, time, duration and location for a treatment have been agreed, with a deposit of 50%.
  • If a cancellation is made more than 24 hours before a treatment, the client will not be charged. Their deposit will be refunded in full.
  • If a cancellation is made within 24 hours of the treatment, any payments made will not be returned to you by Blissful Serenity Massage Therapies, as it will be too late to fill your appointment slot with another client.
  • When booking and paying you are authorising us to retain the full cost of your treatment should you cancel the appointment with less than 24 hours notice.

If a client is experiencing symptoms of Covid-19 or has knowingly come into contact with someone with Covid-19 symptoms within two weeks prior to the treatment, the client must cancel their session with immediate effect. Their initial payment will be refunded in full.

6. Our right to cancel
  • We have the right to cancel a treatment by giving 24 hour’s notice.
  • We have the right to cancel a mobile massage treatment without notice if the room or environment is unsuitable for the treatment to be provided.
  • We have the right to cancel a treatment without notice if the client is intoxicated or inebriated; or we feel unsafe in their company and therefore do not feel comfortable when requested to perform a massage on them. 
  • We reserve the right to end a session, leave and still charge for the session should we feel under threat and therefore unsafe, when in a client’s home, hotel room or AirBnB.

We will rearrange treatment session to a new time and date within two weeks of the cancelled treatment where possible, if the therapist  becomes ill, or is incapacitated for some reason and therefore unavailable to attend the massage session booked.

7. Late arrivals ~ client & therapist
  • While we appreciate that unforseen events might delay you we do urge that you aim to arrive early for your appointment so we can commence on time. Neither are we able to add time on at the end, as we will no doubt have another appointment to prepare for.
  • If there is a no-show after 15 minutes the booking will be cancelled and the initial  instalment retained.
  • We will use our best endeavours to arrive at your location, if you have requested our mobile massage service. If delayed you will be advised and we will be happy to add the time back at the end of your massage session.
  • If we are delayed and either party to the booking has no choice but to cancel the booking we will either rearrange or refund your payment in full
