It is customary to leave a gratuity or tip for your therapists and instructors however it is a personal decision and left to your own discretion and level of satisfaction. Therapists and instructors are servicing and honoring your wellness for the entire duration of each of your services. If you do decide to tip, both cash and credit tips are appreciated. Cash tips are optimal with discreet tip pouches being available at the reception desk. Your therapists receive all 100% of your tip. Note that if you have more than one therapist or instructor servicing you, the total tip will be split equally between each therapist unless otherwise directed by you. If you are unaccustomed to tipping therapists or instructors, average tipping is 18%-20% of total bill and tipping 25-35% of total bill is customary for exceptional service. Generously tipping your therapists and instructors above and beyond is also welcomed and greatly appreciated. On parties of five (5) or more individuals an 20% service charge will automatically be added to your total bill with the option of adding gratuity if you choose to for services that surpassed your expectations.
