Wellness Center Guidelines and Policies

Massage and Wellness Collective works to provide the ideal sanctuary for all who join us. Like any community, we follow guidelines to ensure everyone sharing our space has a relaxing and enjoyable experience. To make the most of your visit, we kindly request that you:

Massage and Wellness Collective in Portsmouth, NH
  • Arrive 10 minutes early for your session. Give your relaxation a head start! This also gives us time to ensure we understand your needs. Allow enough time for parking and preparing for your session – it’s best to be in a calm, relaxed place before starting your session. If you arrive late, we cannot extend the session as there is usually another client booked in directly afterwards.
  • Enter the Welcome Room through the side door. There’s no formality here – come in and make yourself at home.
  • Keep your mobile on silent. Don’t steal the time away from yourself! You are of course welcome to step outside to take any urgent calls privately.
  • Leave the little ones as children can’t accompany you during massage and treatment sessions. It’s okay for you to take this time for yourself! Caring for yourself allows you to care for others.
  • Prepare for your treatment. You can undress to whatever degree is comfortable for you. While all oils used are water soluble and designed not to stain clothes, it is best not to wear new clothing.
  • Enjoy your treatment. While your body is being relaxed and revived, take the time to also rest your mind. Try to focus on the enjoyment of your treatment and ignore any distractions or intrusions from the outside world.
  • Float back to earth. After your treatment, you will be left in the wellness studio to redress, collect your items, and return to the welcome room. After we take payment, feel free to sit, close your eyes, and savour how good you feel.
  • Make your next appointment. To get the most out of your treatment, it is best to repeat every 4 weeks. Make your next appointment immediately so you can be guaranteed the day and time that best suits. Prioritize your self care!
  • 24 hours’ notice is provided for cancellations. To cover our lost time, late cancellations will be charged for the service you select
