Delivery Details & Charges

All deliveries are subject to stock availability and authorisation of payment. Delivery timings and addresses are subject to courier restrictions. Please note that dispatch time estimates are not guaranteed and that dispatch times should not be relied upon as such.

Acknowledgement & Acceptance Of Order

We will notify you by e-mail to confirm receipt of your order, however our acceptance of your order will take place upon dispatch of the product(s) ordered.

For bookings we will endeavour to send you a reminder approximately 48 hours prior to your appointment using the contact details you have provided.

Cancellations and Non-Attendance

We understand that sometimes appointments may need to be rescheduled or cancelled, however, we request as much notice as possible to respect the practitioner's time, and other patients' requirements for appointment times.

You may cancel or reschedule your appointment without charge prior to 48 hours in advance of the appointment time. If you cancel or reschedule with less than this notice, or by leaving a message by voice or email, you will be charged an amount equal to 100% of your deposit. Out of respect and consideration of our practitioners' time if you don't attend a scheduled appointment then you will be charged an amount equal to 100% of your deposit.

Likewise, if it is part of a treatment course, you will forfeit one of the treatment episodes.

Persistent cancellations or non-attendance with or without notice, or at short notice, may result in our decision to decline services or to increase the deposit amount. Full circumstances will be taken into account and our decisions will not be unreasonable but will be final.

If a course of treatment has been pre-paid the quantity and frequency of treatment episodes will be based on the practitioner’s professional recommendation, following consultation, to attain the optimum result. If you decide to cancel your course of treatments part-way-through, we will be unable to refund you the value of the remaining treatments or to transfer to another patient or to transfer to another body part. We will also not be liable for a less than optimum treatment result. We will credit the remaining value to alternative treatments (subject to you being medically suitable) following a full consultation.
