Policies are as follows:
Please give the practitioner prior notice if you are arriving late. The practitioner is then authorized to adjust the treatment time as needed, or, if too much time has elapsed, to decline facilitating the treatment altogether.
If cancellation is necessary, please give at least a 24 hour notice. When there is a no-show or cancellation occurs within 24 hours of the scheduled appointment, the client is responsible for payment of the entire session. Emergency cancellations are determined with the practitioner’s discretion. If I need to cancel an appointment, I do so with at least 24 hours notice whenever possible. Refunds or rescheduling is done at the practitioner’s discretion.
Both client and practitioner will be fully present during each session (never under the influence of alcohol or drugs). Sessions will be canceled or terminated at the pracitioner’s discretion.
As a practitioner, I am available to my clients via email at all hours and will respond at my first opportunity. I will do my best to return calls, texts, and emails within 48 hours on business days. Although I am human and sometimes take extended time away.
As a practitioner, I am able to perform services for which I am qualified (physically and emotionally) and able to do, and refer my clients to appropriate specialists when work is not within my scope of practice or not in the best interest of the bodyworker or client.
I respect all clients regardless of their age, gender, race, national origin, sexual orientation, religion, socioeconomic status, body type, political affiliation, state of health or personal habits. Clients are treated with respect and dignity. Privacy and confidentiality are maintained at all times.
All product sales are final.
Please arrive with high health and hygiene standards appropriate to receiving a treatment. Please let the bodyworker know if you have any contagious condition or any health concern that necessitates modifying or declining your session.
The bodywork sessions to be administered are for the purpose of stress reduction, relief of muscular tension, increasing circulation, and promoting a feeling of general relaxation. By booking any appointment, one gives the practitioner full permission to facilitate an interview, a therapeutic bodywork treatment, and post treatment protocols.
The bodywork or assessment or herbal care done by Tori Poloski (EMBODYWORK) does not diagnose illness, disease, physical or mental disorders, nor does the therapist prescribe medical treatment or pharmaceuticals, nor do they perform spinal adjustments or in anyway attempt to perform the functions of a medical doctor. Clients must agree to accurately inform the therapist of the status of their health, and agree to keep them updated on their current level of health and well-being.
There shall be no liability upon and to hold harmless Tori Poloski (EMBODYWORK), and her relatives, successors, and heirs for any condition which may result from receiving therapeutic massage or bodywork in her space, or from leaving, arriving, and occupying the building and its surrounding premises. Any illicit or sexually suggestive remarks or advances made by client will result in the immediate termination of the session with no obligation upon Tori Poloski to return any payment as a result.
