b) Those participating in the "Senior Savings" or the "Veterans Savings" incentive programs will have cancelations fees based on the FULL posted price (as the "savings" is applied ONLY a-f-t-e-r the appt./session has been completed)

c) ONE "pardon" is allotted per client per lifetime (a.k.a. a "free pass") for a late Cancelation or a late RE-scheduling. A RE-scheduling means you're actually canceling your appointment in order to schedule a new one for a different date or for a different time of day. OR for a NO SHOW.  

d) ALL Cancelations/Rescheduling requests(at least 24 Hours b-e-f-o-r-e the scheduled appt. Date/Time can be submitted using the: [ "Add to Calendar" |  "Cancel" | "Reschedule" ] option.  Look for it on your emailed Appointment Confirmation & also, on your emailed (or texted) Appointment Reminder.

Means you were not present in-person for the entire duration of your scheduled appointment time.  As well, a Cancelation made by you AFTER the appointment time has passed will count as a NO SHOW.  IF you arrive late, your session will still occur, will still end at the originally scheduled time and the full fee-for-service will still be due.

•APPOINTMENT REMINDERS:

ONE (1) Reminder will be issued via email or text message (dependent upon what option you have chosen).  It will be issued 72 Hours (3 days) prior to your appointment (this leaves a 48 Hour window for canceling or rescheduling an appointment without incurring a fee)
