Our Recommendations

To maximize the benefits of serenity, we ask that you turn your cell phone’s volume off so that distractions are eliminate during your service. We ask that all our clients be mindful that a following appointment may exist after their service, therefore using time efficiently to dress and undress is appreciated tremendously.

To get the maximum results from your service, we would like to emphasize relaxation. Tightening up becomes counterproductive and can hinder the therapy being performed.  Let us do all the work by relaxing your body so that your movements can be fluid and smooth. 

Our Policies

Cancellations - All of our services require a major credit card to hold a reservation.  If cancellations occur within 24 hours of the scheduled treatment, there will be a 50% fee charge of the total service price.  If the appointment results in a no show, there will be a 100 % fee charge of the total price.

Late arrivals – We have a grace period of 10 minutes before we consider an appointment as a no show.  If you arrive within the grace period,  your service will end at the scheduled time.  If more than 10 minutes pass, the appointment is  considered a no show and subject to a 100% fee charge of the total price. 

 

If the pressure is too much or not enough, is it ok to tell my therapist?

Absolutely! We value your feedback and encourage honest communication during your session.  If you feel that you may need a modification in pressure, please let us know so we can respond to your needs.

Can I request therapeutic work to be concentrated in a focal problem area?

Definitely. We understand and can empathize with your pain and discomfort.  Our goal is to provide a therapeutic massage that will aid in the path of healing. Therefore a request to spend more time in those problem areas is never ignored.

Should I tell my therapist about any illness or allergies I have?

Yes. This is especially true for people with high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, and diabetes.  This also applies to recent injuries, allergies, pregnancy, and wounds.  Advising us of any of these conditions will help protect you by letting us know what modifications we will need to make so your health is never compromised.

Do I have to completely disrobe for my service?

Not necessarily. We use a sophisticated method of draping the body to protect your modesty so the removal of under garments is completely up to you and your comfort level.

Do you offer couples massage?

Yes, although our services are currently listed as individualized treatments. All treatments can be done so that two people can be in the same room together. 

How far in advance should I book my appointment?

Appointments are highly recommended.  We suggest that you book your appointment  2-3 days prior to the desired date to ensure your preferred time slot.

Where is your spa located?

Simply Nirvana Massage Therapy is nestled within the Cricket Alley Shops at 125 Metropole Ave. on beautiful Catalina Island, CA.

Can the Series massages be split up between a group of people?

We apologize, but the series of massages have been created solely for individuals.  Yet we do offer special group rates for parties of 6 or more.
