When purchasing GC’s please note that we are open at various hours seven days a week. Check schedule to confirm times will work for your recipient.

Please be aware when booking appointments with credit card prepayment, you may reschedule the appointment if needed prior to the 24 hour cancellation/reschedule without penalty window. Unfortunately, due to the rise in CC processing fees, if you cancel the appointment entirely prior to the 24 hour cancellation window, you will still be charged a $5 credit card processing fee. Thank you for your understanding in that this fee does not entirely cover our independent business’ loss for canceled appointments, which has become prohibitive. For gift card purchases, refunded gift cards will also incur the $5 CC loss. If you are not sure about your appointment scheduling and don't want to risk the $5 loss, please email kiera@mamassage.org for questions and alternative payment methods.
