Hi, we would like to schedule a double 60 minute massage and mud treatment for March 25th, any time early in the day. When trying to book online however, it does not give me the option. I would like to schedule something very soon, please let me know how we can do this if it is available. Thank you!
Dear Lorraine,
in this case you will need to make 2 separate bookings. One for the double massage and one for the separate mud treatment. Thank you for your understanding.
