Policies & Intake
 


TIBIA Massage Studio Policies

Responsibility for time scheduled. If you need to cancel a session, we need to know 24 hours in advance so that we may offer the session time to others. Any sessions canceled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours notice will be subject to a 50% charge, except in case of sudden illness, accident, or emergency. If you paid in advance and do not show up for your appointment, we reserve the right to keep all monies paid. If you arrive late, you will have the remaining time of the scheduled session.

Guarantee concerning prepaid appointments. If we are unable to honor an appointment for which you have prepaid, we will refund the full amount paid for that session. This assumes that efforts to reschedule were made and were unsuccessful, and that if it was you who needed to reschedule, you gave us at least 24 hours’ notice. If we need to reschedule your appointment, we will give you at least 72 hours’ notice (except in case of emergency) or will refund the amount paid for that session.

Responsibility regarding contagion. You will cancel or reschedule immediately if you have or suspect you have a contagious illness, rash, or other contagious condition. No payment is required in such cases. We do still appreciate your letting us know as soon as possible so that we may open up your appointment time for others!

Full reporting of medical conditions. On your intake form or in your intake interview, you will disclose all known medical conditions and medications, since many conditions (not just the ones you might think) have implications for whether and how massage may safely proceed.

Preparation/hygiene. You will be reasonably clean and not under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Arriving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is grounds for termination of the session (with payment for the full scheduled time still due).

Respect for the practitioner. Sexual conduct or innuendo will not be tolerated and will be grounds for immediate termination of the session (with payment for the full scheduled time still due).

Respect for other clients. You (and your cellphone J) will be quiet enough not to disturb clients in adjoining rooms.


Our commitments to you:

Confidentiality. All information shared is kept confidential unless one of the following conditions applies:

1. You have signed a written release.
2. You are experiencing a medical emergency.
3. There is convincing evidence that you are an immediate danger to yourself or others.
4. There is convincing evidence of abuse or neglect of a child, elder, or other dependent.
5. The court orders a release of information.

Professionalism. You will be treated with respect, dignity, and professionalism. Specifically, we provide

1. Clean, safe equipment;
2. Observance of professional standards of hygiene and cleanliness;
3. Hypoallergenic environment and oil/lotion when requested;
4. Timely beginning and ending of session;
5. Absence of sexual conduct or innuendo;
6. Draping of areas not being worked on with sheet/blanket to preserve privacy;
7. Immediate response to requests to discontinue the session;
8. Commitment to practicing within our level of training and scope of practice;
9. Tailoring techniques applied and depth of pressure to your needs and medical condition(s) as communicated in your intake form, interview and session time;
10. Respectful, non-judgmental communication at all times.

INFORMED CONSENT

I understand that the bodywork I receive is provided for the basic purpose of relaxation and therapeutic relief of muscular tension. If I experience any pain or discomfort during the session, I will immediately inform the practitioner so that the pressure and/or strokes may be adjusted to my level of comfort. I further understand that bodywork should not be construed as a substitute for medical examination, diagnosis, or treatment. I understand the bodywork practitioners are not qualified to perform spinal or skeletal adjustments, diagnose, prescribe, or treat any physical or mental illness, and that nothing said in the course of the session should be construed as such. Because bodywork should not be performed under certain medical conditions, I affirm that I have stated all my known medical conditions, and answered all question honestly. I agree to keep TIBIA updated as to any changes in my medical profile and understand that there shall be no liability on TIBIA’s part should I fail to do so.
