Policies

I will demonstrate compassion, respect, and tolerance for others. I will seek to decrease discrimination, misunderstandings, and prejudice. I understand there are situations when it is appropriate to decline service to a client because it is in the best interests of a client's health, or for my personal safety, but I will not refuse service to any client based on disability, ethnicity, gender, marital status, physical build, or sexual orientation; religious, national, or political affiliation; social or economic status.

I will keep client communication and information confidential and will not share client information without the client's consent, within the limits of the law. As there may be other practicing therapists at Rose Curtis Movement Therapy, clients may work with more than one practitioner. If the client consents, health information may be shared with other practitioners only if deemed beneficial to the physical health and healing of the client. I will ensure every effort is made to respect a client's right to privacy and provide an environment where personal health-related details cannot be overheard or seen by others.

For a full list of my commitments to you as a health professional please see ABMP’s Code of Ethics.

For a full list of client expectations and policies please review the required Intake Form.

Cancellation

24-hour notice is required for cancellation of an appointment or decrease in amount of time scheduled (for example, changing a 90 minute appointment last minute to a 60 minute appointment). This provides someone else an opportunity to schedule an appointment. If this notice is not given, you will be charged in full for the appointment. Full payment is required within three days for the session missed. These policies are necessary to allow time for rescheduling of other clients and out of respect for my time and livelihood.

Late Arrivals

Appointment times are as scheduled and cannot extend beyond the stated time to accommodate late arrivals. Depending on the time of arrival, I will determine if there is sufficient time to start a session. Regardless of the amount of time given, you will be responsible for paying for the full therapy or movement session. Out of respect to your therapist and other clients, please be on time to your appointment.

No-shows

Anyone who misses their appointment for any reason will be considered a No-show, and will be charged in full for their missed appointment. Full payment is required within three days for the session missed.

Sickness

Massage is not appropriate care for infectious or contagious illness. Please cancel your appointment as soon as you are aware of an infectious or contagious condition. If it is within the 24-hour notice period, the cancellation fee may be waived.

Client Appointment Responsibility

Clients are fully responsible for managing their own appointment bookings, and if it is necessary to cancel, reschedule, or book a session they are asked to do that through their Square app account. The therapist is not responsible for the client's missed sessions due to the client forgetting to add it to their calendars or not receiving text/email reminders.

Consent for Bodywork Treatment

“If I experience any pain or discomfort during this 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 massage/bodywork should not be construed as a substitute for medical examination, diagnosis, or treatment and that I should see a physician, chiropractor, or other qualified medical specialist for any mental or physical ailment of which I am aware. I understand that massage/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 given should be construed as such. Because massage/bodywork should not be performed under certain medical conditions, I affirm that I have stated all my known medical conditions and answered all questions honestly. I agree to keep the practitioner updated as to any changes in my medical profile and understand that there shall be no liability on the practitioner’s part should I fail to do so. I also understand that any illicit or sexually suggestive remarks or advances made by me will result in immediate termination of the session, and I will be liable for payment of the scheduled appointment. Understanding all of this, I give my consent to receive care.”
