Booking & Confirmation

  • I prioritize a seamless and efficient booking process so clients receive the highest quality service.

    (a) Online Booking Process

    All appointments must be secured through my online booking form for Mobile Foot Massage & Light Therapy. This digital form allows clients to choose their preferred date, time, and service type (Foot Reflexology, Red Light Therapy, NIR Therapy, or a combination), streamlining scheduling and minimizing errors.

    (b) Accurate Service Location

    The address entered in the booking form is the only location where the service will be provided. Clients must provide a complete and accurate address so I can arrive at the correct place on time. Incorrect or incomplete information may cause delays or missed appointments and may still be subject to applicable fees.

    (c) Confirmation Email

    After booking, clients receive a confirmation email that includes:

    • Date and Time of the appointment

    • Duration of the session

    • Service(s) booked

    • Fee, including any applicable travel surcharge

    This confirmation acts as a record of the appointment and ensures both client and practitioner are aligned.

    (d) Reporting Errors

    If there are any errors in the confirmation email (date, time, location, duration, or fee), clients must notify me within four (4) hours of receipt. Prompt notice allows me to correct mistakes and avoid misunderstandings.

    (e) Importance of Communication

    Clients are encouraged to contact me with any questions or concerns about their appointment. Special requests, accessibility needs, or changes in circumstances should be communicated as early as possible so I can adjust where feasible.

    (f) Booking Changes

    Any change to an appointment (time, date, location, or service type) must be requested through the established booking or contact channels. All changes are subject to availability and must comply with my Cancellation & Rescheduling Policy.

    (g) Confirmation of Understanding

    By completing the booking process, clients acknowledge that they have read and understood the details in the confirmation email and this Service Policy.

    (h) Client Responsibility

    Clients are responsible for keeping track of their appointment details and being ready at the scheduled time and location. Respecting the agreed date, time, and address helps ensure a smooth experience for everyone.

Practitioner Status, Service Scope & Limitations

(a) Practitioner Qualifications

Mobile Foot Massage & Light Therapy is operated by one practitioner offering foot reflexology, red light therapy, and near-infrared (NIR) therapy as wellness and relaxation services.
I am not acting as a physician or Registered Massage Therapist (RMT). I do not diagnose, prescribe, or provide medical treatment.

(b) Nature of Services

My sessions focus on:

  • Foot Reflexology (feet and, where appropriate, lower legs up to mid-calf)

  • Red Light Therapy (LED light applied to feet and lower legs)

  • NIR Therapy (near-infrared light applied to feet and lower legs)

These modalities are intended to support relaxation, comfort, circulation, and general wellness. They are complementary, not a replacement for medical care.

(c) Service Scope

  • Foot-Only & Lower Leg Treatments:
    All hands-on work is limited to the feet and, when appropriate, the lower legs up to mid-calf.

  • No Full-Body Massage:
    I do not provide full-body massage or therapeutic RMT-style treatments.

  • No Diagnosis:
    I do not diagnose health conditions or make medical claims.

(d) Wellness Orientation

My services are designed to promote relaxation, stress relief, comfort, and general well-being. Clients experiencing significant pain, new or worsening symptoms, or specific medical concerns are strongly encouraged to consult with their doctor or healthcare provider before receiving any of my services.

(e) Insurance Notice

Because these are wellness and relaxation services and I do not practice as an RMT, insurance receipts are not available and sessions are generally not covered by extended health benefits.

(f) Client Awareness & Consent

By booking, clients acknowledge the nature of my qualifications and services and agree that they are seeking complementary, non-medical wellness care. Clients are encouraged to ask questions before or during the session so they can make informed choices.

Health Disclosure & Contra-Indications

By booking an appointment, clients agree to disclose any relevant health conditions, including but not limited to:

  • Pregnancy

  • Diabetes

  • Neuropathy or nerve disorders

  • Cardiovascular or circulatory issues

  • Blood clots or history of DVT

  • Auto-immune conditions

  • Skin conditions or open wounds on the feet/legs

  • Epilepsy or light sensitivity (for light therapies)

  • Allergies (especially to oils, lotions, alcohol, antiseptics, or adhesives)

This information is necessary to adapt or, if needed, decline treatment for safety. I reserve the right to refuse or modify a treatment if any disclosed or observed condition could compromise client safety or well-being.

Clients are encouraged to consult their physician to determine whether reflexology, red light therapy, or NIR therapy is appropriate for them.

Cancellation & Rescheduling

(a) Advance Notice

Clients must provide at least 24 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule an appointment.

(b) Late Cancellation Fee

Cancellations made within 24 hours of the scheduled start time will incur a fee equal to 50% of the total session amount.

(c) Impact on Scheduling

Late cancellations and no-shows affect other clients who may be waiting for an appointment and impact my travel schedule. Timely communication is appreciated and helps me serve everyone better.

(d) Emergencies

I understand that emergencies happen. At my discretion, exceptions may be made for documented emergencies or severe weather. Clients must notify me as soon as possible for consideration.

(e) Rescheduling

To avoid fees, clients should request rescheduling at least 24 hours in advance. All rescheduling is subject to availability.

(f) Client Accountability

By booking with Mobile Foot Massage & Light Therapy, clients acknowledge and agree to this cancellation and rescheduling policy.

Arrival, Set-Up & Session Timing

I will arrive approximately 5–10 minutes before the scheduled start time to set up my equipment (chair or recliner area, light devices, linens, sanitation materials). Set-up time is not included in the hands-on session duration.

  • The session time starts at the booked start time.

  • If the client is not ready, the session may still proceed but will end at the originally scheduled time, and the full fee applies.

Hygiene, PPE & Infection Control

(a) Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

I use single-use gloves during the session if appropriate or upon client request. Gloves are changed if damaged, soiled, or contaminated.

(b) Cleaning the Treatment Area

Before starting, I sanitize any surfaces or portable equipment I bring (e.g., cushions, supports, light devices) with appropriate disinfectant.

(c) Antiseptics & Sensitivities

When needed, I may use antiseptic wipes or sprays. Clients should inform me of any allergies or sensitivities so I can adjust products as necessary.

(d) Oils & Products

I use cosmetic-grade oils or creams that are free of parabens and harsh fragrances where possible. Clients with sensitive skin, allergies, or specific preferences should mention this before the session.

(e) Hand Hygiene

I wash or sanitize my hands before and after every session and before putting on or removing gloves.

(f) Masks

Masks are optional. I am happy to wear a mask if the client requests it.

(g) Health Concerns

If a client feels unwell, has a fever, contagious illness, or has been recently exposed to such, they should reschedule their appointment. I reserve the right to postpone sessions if illness is apparent.

Any client notes are stored securely and used only to provide safe and consistent care.

Access & Right of Entry

By booking a mobile session, clients grant me permission to enter the specified premises at the agreed date and time solely to provide the service.

If access is denied or delayed by more than 10 minutes from the scheduled start time, the appointment may be treated as a late cancellation, and applicable fees may apply.

Late Arrival

If the client is not ready at the agreed start time:

  • The session will still end at the original finish time.

  • The full session fee will apply, even if the hands-on time is shorter.

Clients are encouraged to communicate any delays as soon as possible.

Photography & Testimonials Consent

From time to time, clients may be invited to provide written testimonials or allow photos of their feet or the treatment setup for marketing.
No image, name, or testimonial will be used without the client’s explicit consent.

Liability Waiver & Indemnity

(a) Assumption of Risk

By participating in foot reflexology, red light therapy, or NIR therapy, clients acknowledge that:

  • These services may cause temporary discomfort or sensitivity.

  • There is no additional charge to reschedule.

  • No compensation, discounts, or refunds are provided for weather-related changes.

Minors

Clients under 18 years of age must have written parental/guardian consent and a parent or guardian present for the entire session.
