Terms & Conditions - For Your Guidance and Information
These notes are for your guidance and information, to help you understand the nature of the services I offer, the conditions under which I offer these services and your responsibilities when attending a session.
Your Responsibilities in Booking and Attending a Session
Please note before booking a session that in attending a session with us you accept full responsibility for deciding that this is the right treatment or session for you, and for expressing your boundaries and consent in relation to the treatment provided.
You are also responsible for respecting the boundaries and consent communicated by the practitioner(s).
On a first session, by paying your deposit you are acknowledging that you have read, understood and agreed to abide by these terms and conditions and cancellation policy.
On subsequent sessions, by booking a session you are also acknowledging that you have read, understood and agreed to abide by these terms and conditions and cancellation policy. I will not remind you each time of this cancellation policy so please avoid booking if you are not able to make this commitment.
Important Things to Know About the Services We Offer and About Tantra
While all the practitioners on our team are experienced in working with Tantra, our Four Handed Massage is NOT intended to be a Tantric massage per se.
If your interest is in the individual ‘Devotional Tantra Massage’ sessions or ‘Devotional Tantra Experience Days’ on our ‘Other Offerings’ pages, then this falls within what might be described as Tantric Services.
We are not therapists or counsellors, and the provision of Tantric Services is an unregulated industry.
I will ask questions about your physical health in order to assess the suitability and safety (or otherwise) of the services we are willing to provide for you in relation to you and your personal circumstances. However, we are not medically trained, and you must take responsibility for your own well-being.
The massage sessions we provide are not a ‘happy ending’ or sexual service and are for those interested in personal growth. Tantra Massage is not an alternative to addressing intimacy issues in any relationship that you are in.
We take the issues around consent and boundaries very seriously. We rely on you the client to make informed choices about the services we offer and to take responsibility for clearly communicating your boundaries and consent.
The massage space is a sanctuary, quiet, private and set apart from the everyday world. Massage sessions are held in or near Totnes, South Devon, in a warm, cosy and safe space with free parking available.
Massage sessions typically last between 2 and 3 hours but can be longer by agreement and depending on the services being provided.
Privacy Policy
We take the privacy of our clients very seriously and respect that anything disclosed or occurring prior to, during or following massage sessions is to be treated in strictest confidence.
The only exception to this would be in situations where I felt that a client, or third party, was at serious risk of harm, in which case I would consider breaking confidentiality in order to protect that person’s safety or well-being. Where possible I would always try to obtain the client’s consent before doing so but, if the situation were serious or urgent enough, I might break confidentiality without consent or even, in very extreme cases, against the client’s wishes.

Booking & Cancellation Policy
Please contact Harmony to arrange an initial consultation or to book your session – email: harmony@four-handedmassage.co.uk
I aim to get back to you within 48 hours of your email, or within 72 hours over a weekend.
Please note that I ask for a 50% deposit on booking with the balance to be paid on the day of the session. Alternatively, you can pay the full amount in advance. If a cancellation is made more than 48 hours before the start of the session, there is an option for a refund or to rebook.
For some of our longer bespoke sessions I may ask for full payment in advance of the day.
If a cancellation is made within 48 hours of the session time, 25% of the full fee is charged, and within 24 hours 50% is charged.
If the session is cancelled on the day of the booking the full fee is payable. If you have a genuine emergency, please do let me know and let’s have a conversation.
