This may look like a moment of solitude as you reflect with a soothing loose leaf tea, basking in the ambiance of our infrared sauna or cleansing mind, body and soul with our banya bucket shower. At solace our space is yours and we invite you to enjoy your time to reinvigorate as you supinate. 

THE EXPeRIence

Ayurvedic medicine is based on five elements - space, water, earth, fire and air. The combination of which results in three humours (doshas) - vata, kapha and pitta, thought to be responsible for one's psychological, mental and emotional health.

At Solace we customise your experience; matching treatment, anointments, aromatherapy and loose leaf tea to your innate dosha in a holistic rebalancing of the person. Click below to discover your dosha.

POSITION STATEMENT ON CHILDREN ATTENDING APPOINTMENTS

COVID-19

Your safety and well-being are very important to us, and we understand that sometimes, unexpected changes in your schedule can occur resulting in last minute appointment changes. Conversely, as a small business, it is often very difficult to fill last minute cancellations and not only can this affect us financially, it can often inconvenience our own schedules. As such, we respectfully request that if you need to cancel or change your appointment, you allow us 72 hours notice. We do understand that this will not always be possible and as such our policy has discretionary flexibility.

Please note the following points relevant to booking and to be instated from Jul 22

+ Commencing Jul 22, we will require a booking fee for every booking. Please do not take this personally, we will be asking for a booking fee from every patient, regardless of whether you are new or returning to our clinic. We do this to ensure some small recuperation of running costs which occur to us regardless of whether you attend your appointment or not.

+ A booking fee will be required to secure your appointment. If you receive a notification from our system requesting payment of your booking fee, please do this within 4 days of your proposed appointment time to confirm your booking.

+ If you are not comfortable paying online, we can process your booking fee over the phone or in person. If a booking fee is not received prior to your appointment, we reserve the right to offer your appointment to another patient.

+ A minimum deposit of $50 will now be taken for most treatments. Larger amounts may be taken for treatments that carry a greater allocation of treatment time, or for which product needs to be specifically ordered in your name.

+ Deposits are redeemable from the total cost of your booked service which will be adjusted at the time of treatment.
+ Any cancellations or reschedules made in less than 72 hours will result in application of your booking fee which will only be refundable under the discretion of an Aescend artisan. Please note that under most circumstances your booking fee will not be refundable.

+ For illnesses and emergencies that occur with less than 72 hours notice you will be offered the opportunity to reschedule to another time within the proceeding month without forfeiture of your booking fee. A failure to reschedule will result in application of your booking fee, except for under extenuating circumstances. Multiple reschedules of your initial appointment may be considered a short-notice cancellation of your initial appointment, resulting in forfeiture of your booking fee as would have initially occurred.

+ If you are more than 15 minutes late for your service, we may not be able to accommodate you. If this is not possible, please note that your cancellation fee MAY apply.

+ In the case of appointments being rescheduled, your booking fee will remain redeemable towards services, if notice greater than 72 hours is provided.

+ For cancellations with more than 72 hours notice with no intent to reschedule, patients are entitled to refund of their booking fee. Please note however, that any fees and charges associated with processing the initial deposit and refund which will be passed on to the patient.

+ Consultations remain free, but please try to give the same notice if you no longer wish to keep your appointment.


Thank you for your understanding on this matter. We look forward to seeing you at Aescend Aesthetics.
