Policies

Details to keep in mind : For health and safety, all guests are required to sign an acknowledgment, release and informed consent form, prior to enjoying the spa. Please notify our staff if you are pregnant or have any medical conditions or physical ailments, as certain treatments may not be suitable. Note that Grounded is a completely cell phone and smoke free environment. We thank you for your understanding.

Please understand we are a small business with real people, with kids and stuff, so our policies are written to eliminate missed appointments, no-shows, lost wages, and frustration with everyone’s busy schedules.

Ex. You need to cancel your 10am appt and it’s 6am that morning or 9pm the night prior. You call the studio and the receptionist is still sleeping. No one is going to get your voicemail in time because your therapist has already secured a babysitter and driven into work. This is how they make a living. And this is why we need 24 hours notice. Flow and respecting everyone’s time. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Kindness Policy : We believe in the power of kindness and appreciate everyone we have the opportunity in meeting. Grounded is actively anti-racist and honor all shades of humans, as well as our LGBTQ Community. We are a safe place for individuals of all types, shapes, sizes to experience our services in privacy, and without judgement. Our crew is as diverse as our community that we serve, and we look forward to your visit with us.

Cancelation Policy : A 24-hour cancellation notice with a human is required once an appointment is scheduled. Cancellations less than 24 hours via voicemails are not accepted. Please call the day prior and before the end of our business day to avoid charges. Cancellations with less than 24 hours notice will result in a 100% charge for the service[s] scheduled with the authorized credit card on file. Same day and no-show appointments will result in a 100% charge for reserved services. 

Cancellations that occur following/during a "holiday" require a 48 hour notice. This includes the following holidays: New Years Day, February 14, Mother’s Day Weekend, Memorial Day Weekend, Veterans Day Weekend, Thanksgiving Break Nov 16-29, and Dec 20-31.

Scheduling Changes Policy : A 24-hour scheduling change with a human is required once an appointment is scheduled [ie. type of massage, add-ons]. Changes with less than 24 hours via voicemails are not accepted. Please call the day prior and before the end of our business day to avoid charges. We will make all changes that are possible; however, if we are unable to make the changes to your satisfaction, this will result in a 100% charge for the service if the service cannot be completed. 

No-Call No-Show Policy : Missing your appointment without calling will result in a 100% charge for reserved services with the authorized credit card on file.  A no-call no-show will also result in suspension of the guests account with Grounded until the account has been settled and paid in full. It's also really bad karma.

Charges to your account : If you have been charged by Grounded Bodyworks LLC without authorization, please contact Jennifer [ Owner ] directly at jenn@groundedbodyworks.com to get this taken care of!

What our Clients have to say

I love love love Elizabeth's work!!! Her eyelash application is perfect and she really knows what she is doing. It literally didn't even feel like I had extensions on. I recommend her to the fullest! if you're ever looking to get a gorgeous set Elizabeth is your girl. I was new to lashes about three months ago, now I am addicted. I dont even have to put mascara anymore.

The atmosphere and place is so relaxing, intimate and all in all just so cute! Oh, and don't get me started on the beds... SO COMFY!

Best part of the whole experience was that you can truly tell that Elizabeth loves what she does and her passion truly shows in her sets! So in love and will always go back to see her.

I recently got a facial at Grounded Bodyworks. I was looking for something hydrating right before my wedding and Jenn (the lovely owner) recommended the Osea hydrating facial (I am sure that's not the exact name for the facial, perhaps that is the brand they use) and she was right—that is exactly what I needed before my wedding; something super hydrating and glowy that wouldn't irritate my skin or make me breakout which is normal after a regular facial.

After that I have been using Osea products in my daily routine because they are clean (they do not contain harsh chemicals) and the products actually work! They also have them for purchase as well, and I cannot wait to have another facial soon. I highly recommend it.

When I first walked in ,I already felt relaxed! The interior is very welcoming and smells great!! I had an amazing massage. The pressure was great and she was very friendly. I also decided to try a reiki session with Kelly and it was very healing and therapeutic! A must try in the desert!! I will definitely be back when I come out for vacation!

Everything about this business is stellar. The customer service was incredible, the staff were so kind, and the decor and cleanliness were also fantastic. I would come back here time and time again. I think the bar for customer service has been set so high I will probably be disappointed with everywhere else I go! Thank you for making our girls weekend special and memorable! So much love for this place!!!

So Kind!

I am so happy to have discovered Grounded Bodyworks Studio for sugaring. After two rather disastrous sessions with two Coachella Valley spas who purportedly know how to sugar (spoiler alert: they do not), the third time has proven to be the charm. Stephanie did my sugaring and I can't be more pleased with the results! She really does meticulous work, and I happen to be extremely fussy. Thanks for doing such a great job! I will definitely be back to avail myself of your other spa services. Grounded Bodyworks has my highest recommendation.

I loved my treatments here! Don't miss this oasis for all your body needs. My lashes are still looking good three weeks later! Their retail products are great too, I especially like the body scrubs and body oil, in any flavor. I bought so much I did have some juggling to do at the airport to get things home safely. Well worth it!
