I had an appointment at 11 am last week and arrived ahead of time to complete paperwork. Bobby was very nice in helping me get scheduled for a new client package, consisting of 4 separate treatments. The first few mins of my visit were fine. I met with therapist Amanda shortly thereafter so that she she could understand better how to help me with specific areas of pain. I was a bit surprised that her room felt a bit unkempt and not so clean smelling. She left the room and I got undressed and on the massage table. She re-entered the room and I took one second to let her know my upper left arm was sore due to the fact that I had received my flu/covid vaccines. She didn't respond at first and when she finally did, she sighed and acted put out with me. She told me I had a bad aura and that she would have to "cleanse" the area. I asked her what I had done and informed me that because I had received vaccines, that I was shedding the vaccination. She abruptly left the room and returned a few minutes later to let me know she would NOT continue and would not perform the massage. She implied that since I was vaccinated that I would be giving her both the flu and covid because I was shedding all over. In addition to lying on the massage table unclothed, but covered, I was humiliated and felt shamed by this person and could not believe how rude she was and completely unprofessional. She acted like a scolded two year old. I got up, dressed and walked out the front door without a word.
I post this for others awareness. I believe firmly in a person exercising their own personal right to choice. It does not affect me one way or another whether a person is vaccinated or not. The way this woman went about shaming me was unconscionable. There was no word about this during my phone calls or on the 2 page paperwork. Had their been a clear policy stated, I would have understood. Instead I was denied service, shamed and treated rudely by a person who serves the public. Shame shame on you Amanda. I will NEVER step foot in your business again and will do all I can to educate people around me about the way you choose to do business.
You get 1 star on this review simply because I had to select something. read more
