    Where are treatments performed?
    Your choice!  Come to our elegant yet relaxed spa
    studio in an historic brownstone in Brooklyn where we
    serve one client or couple at a time.  Or request
    mobile spa services to bring the spa to your home,
    office or hotel.

    Are there space and equipment requirements for a
    home visit?
    A quiet room with space for a massage table the size
    of a twin-sized bed, plus room to walk around it.  
    Access to electrical outlets, a bathroom and a
    microwave may be needed depending on your
    treatment.  A massage table, organic linens and other
    items will be brought to your home.  Save $50 per visit
    if you wish to own your table.  It's easier than you think,
    and calm will help you with the process.  Please call
    or email for details.  

    What are the policies on lateness and cancellation?
    24 hours notice is required to change or cancel your
    appointment to avoid a 50% charge to the credit card
    used to reserve your appointment.  No-shows will
    incur a 100% charge.  If you are running late for your
    appointment, please call as soon as possible.  Since
    late arrivals are charged in full for the reserved time,
    we will attempt to accommodate the full treatment
    time, but will be unable to if it interferes with another
    client's appointment.  

    Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?
    Appointments are necessary.  We will not be able to
    answer the door if we're in session or away on a
    home visit.  

    How do I prepare for a treatment?
    If you are a new client, please fill out the New Client
    Information Form and have it ready for the pre-
    appointment consultation.  

    Avoid a heavy meal or empty stomach before
    treatment, and do not use alcohol or use medication
    that causes sleepiness or drowsiness before or after
    massage.  

    Time is needed before treatment to conduct your
    holistic evaluation, prepare products, and for home
    visits, time is needed to set up equipment.  Your
    treatment time is not used for these activities so that
    we ensure you receive a full treatment based on the
    time you have reserved.  Please arrive at your
    scheduled time.

    It is also recommended that you silence your cell
    phone and avoid other distractions to your treatment.  

    What do I wear for my treatment?
    Although you will need to remove your clothing, you
    will be covered by a sheet and blanket which will be
    removed from the area being worked on at the time,
    then recovered.  Jewelry must be removed for many
    treatments, so it is best if you leave it home.  If you are
    wearing makeup, it will be removed for many of the
    treatments.  

    Can I have a massage if I am pregnant?
    Yes.  Please check with your doctor or midwife if you
    have any concerns; they may contact us with any
    questions.

    What do you recommend after a treatment?
    In general, drink water after treatments and be good to
    yourself for the rest of the day!  This includes eating
    well, avoiding alcohol, and avoiding strenuous
    activity.  For any facial treatment, it is recommended
    that you do not wear makeup afterward.  An organic
    sunscreen will be applied for your protection.

    After your treatment, you will receive a home care
    instruction sheet for anything specific to your
    treatment.  As always, call us if you have any
    questions.
Still have questions? Please contact us at anytime!  We
look forward to hearing from you.

    Is my massage tax deductible?
    Massage that is prescribed by a doctor and performed by a licensed massage
    therapist may be deductible.  Here's a few ways it has been for other clients;

  • if, when added to your other unreimbursed medical expenses, the total unreimbursed
    expenses are greater than 7.5% of your adjusted gross income, it can be deducted.  
    Remember to add in travel costs to get to your massage appointments.  Check with
    your accountant for details.
  • if you have an FSA  (Flexible Spending Account) or HSA (Health Savings Account), a
    medical receipt can be provided for you that details what work we have done and my
    credentials.  Check with the administrator of your plan (your employer or financial
    advisor) for specifics regarding your FSA/HSA.  For example, your plan may specify that
    your doctor must prescribe the length and duration of treatments, in addition to
    providing the diagnosis.
