Gift Certificates
As a business, we are elated to offer gift certificates to our clients. The gentle reminder for someone to nurture themselves is priceless in today’s busy world. We offer treatment specific gift certificates to accommodate treatment time as well as a dollar amount you choose. We have always included an expiration date on our gift certificates. Unfortunately, there are times when someone doesn’t make it in to redeem their treatment before the expiration because it was lost or accidentally discarded. We know how awful that is.
While all of our gift certificates have an expiration date listed, that doesn’t mean you lose. We are happy to honor the purchase amount towards any treatment after the expiration. In the event our rates have changed or a special discount is no longer offered, you will be requested to cover the difference.
We value you and the people you love. Stop by and pick up your no-hassle gift of wellness today.
