Given the news that WHO has officially declared the coronavirus a pandemic, we have decided to update some of our policies to help keep our clients safe.
Starting immediately, we are offering a 10% discount on telephone and skype appointments and we want to remind our clients that all of our services are available by phone or skype.
We are also waiving cancellation fees in some circumstances so that we are not encouraging clients to come in if they are feeling unwell.
Have a look at the policy and feel free to let us know if there is anything else that you would like to see in place.
I hope everyone stays safe and healthy!
