If you arrive without a booking, you will be turned away.
⚠️ Important Booking Policy:
- If you cannot attend, your appointment can be rescheduled — but you must give notice in advance.
-
If you miss your booked session without notice, this may affect your ability to reschedule another appointment.

Please only book a date you are certain you can attend.
