FAQs

Your visit to AMAN Spa begins the moment you step through our doors. We invite you to arrive a few minutes before your scheduled appointment to settle in and complete your intake forms, if you haven’t already done so online.

You will be warmly welcomed by our receptionist and asked to relax in our serene waiting area—a quiet sanctuary designed to help you begin unwinding. Here, you may enjoy a selection of complimentary tea or a light snack as you transition into a state of calm. If you need to use the washroom, this is the perfect time to do so, ensuring that every minute of your treatment is dedicated to your care.

At your appointment time, your therapist will come to greet you and escort you to your treatment room. Your treatment time officially begins at this moment of pickup or your scheduled treatment time. Once inside the room, your therapist will describe the service you will be receiving, review any important details noted on your intake form, and take a moment to understand your specific needs and preferences for the session.

Your therapist will then step out, giving you privacy to undress to your comfort level and settle onto the treatment table. After a few moments, they will return and begin your experience, delivering your treatment with intention, skill, and presence. The session concludes precisely at your scheduled end time—for example, a 60-minute treatment will conclude 60 minutes after pickup.

Following your service, your therapist will check in with you, step out once again to allow you to get dressed, and then meet you in the waiting area for any final guidance or after-care recommendations.

To complete your visit, our receptionist will assist you with payment and ensure you leave feeling renewed, supported, and deeply cared for—until your next AMAN Spa escape.

Please make sure you arrive before your appointment start time and complete the intake forms before you arrive (or arrive at least 10 minutes early to fill out the forms in person). If you arrive late, we cannot extend the end time of your appointment and your appointment will be cut short.

Your appointment time is reserved just for you. A late cancellation or missed visit leaves a hole in the therapists' day that could have been filled by another patient. As such, we require 24 hours notice for any cancellations or changes to your appointment. Patients who provide less than 24 hrs notice, or miss their appointment, for any reason **(including illness)**, will be charged the cancellation fee of the full service(s) amount to the credit card on file.

Your treatment time starts on the time it is scheduled for you. So if you have a 2 pm appointment, your treatment time starts at 2 pm. Your treatment time ends after the period of time it is broken for passes. If you booked a 60 minute treatment for 2 pm, then your treatment time ends at 3 pm.

If you are late, or need to fill out your intake forms in person, or have to use the bathroom, and this takes us past your start time, we can't change the treatment time. Your treatment will still end at the time originally scheduled.

Your treatment time includes your intake and assessment, as well as your undressing time. This can take anywhere between 5-10 minutes. This means that for a 60 minute session, 55-50 minutes will be hands on.

After your treatment time ends, you can get dressed and ready for what your day holds next for you. Your therapists will meet you in the waiting area, and then get back to preparing the room for the next guest.
