Client Etiquette


As a spa guest you are expected to:
  • Arrive on time or early for your appointment, to enjoy the facility.
  • For services such as body scrubs, body wraps and hydrotherapies you will generally undress completly and be drapped or provided with disposable undergarments.
  • Allow the therapist to perform a service as reserved and timed.
  • Give the therapist feedback as to your comfort and special troubled areas.
  • Relax … that's generally why you are in the spa.
  • Enjoy, benefit and allow others to "do for you".
  • Know that you are in a professional spa therapy operations and do not expect anything other than therapeutic or spa services.
  • Know that you may be silent or quietly talkative.
  • Share public space respectfully with other spa goers.
  • Do not bring children and leave them unattended, this is very disruptive to other spa goers and unsafe for children.
  • Know if gratuities are included or not and be prepared according to your experience and desire to tip or not.
  • Relax, yet respect that the room must be prepared and used for the next client; so know that you must vacate treatment room upon completion of service within a reasonable amount of time.
  • Give honest feedback to the therapist, owner, receptionist, etc., as operation personnel cares to know if your spa experiences was as expected.
Unacceptable behavior

Such behavior does not conform to spa etiquette.
