Cancellation and No-Show Policy

Notice period

To avoid a cancellation charge, notice of cancellation or rescheduling must be received at least 24 hours before the scheduled session time.

Cancellation charges

  • More than 24 hours notice: no charge.

  • Less than 24 hours notice: the full session fee is charged.

  • Failure to attend without notice (no-show) the full session fee is charged.

Rescheduling

Rescheduling requests received more than 24 hours before the session will be accommodated where possible, at no additional cost. Requests received less than 24 hours before the session are treated as a late cancellation and subject to the standard charge.

How to cancel or reschedule

To cancel or reschedule a session, please contact Ustawi Practice by email at info@ustawipractice.com. The timestamp of your email determines whether the cancellation falls within or outside the 24-hour notice period.

Exceptional circumstances

We recognise that illness, family emergencies, and other unforeseen events occur. In genuine circumstances of this kind, Ustawi Practice may waive the cancellation charge at its discretion. Please get in touch as soon as possible so we can discuss the situation together.

Cancellations by Ustawi Practice

If Ustawi Practice needs to cancel or reschedule a session, for example, due to illness or unforeseen circumstances on our side, you will be offered the choice of rescheduling at a mutually convenient time or receiving a full refund for any pre-paid session.


Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms and Conditions from time to time. Updated versions will be published on this page.
