Terms of Service

1. About these terms

These terms describe use of this website and the general booking policies for Fish’s services under The Alchemy of Service. They should be read with the Privacy Policy and Disclaimer.

Contracting individual or entity: The Alchemy Of Service, LLC. Business contact: [email protected]; phone 757-773-5572. Public service area: Los Angeles County, California. A private studio address is supplied separately for confirmed studio bookings.

2. Website use and service inquiries

You may use this website to learn about services, send a relevant inquiry, and request or arrange an appointment. Provide accurate contact and booking information. Do not misuse forms, impersonate another person, submit unlawful content, interfere with the site, or attempt unauthorized access to records or systems.

An inquiry, an Alignment Call, or a conversation about an emerging offer does not itself create a paid service engagement. The service, timing, location, price, and any event-specific terms must be confirmed through the applicable booking process or written agreement.

3. Integrative Bodywork: rates and booking

Book at least 48 hours in advance. Full payment is required upfront. Current direct payment methods are Venmo @FishMakes or Zelle using 757-773-5572. Follow the payment instructions for your confirmed appointment. Payment-provider or third-party booking fees, where applicable, should be disclosed by that provider before payment. Travel or other agreed expenses are separate and must be confirmed before the service.

Availability is shown in the booking system in the applicable time zone. Published working hours are Pacific time and do not guarantee every time within those hours is available. For house calls, provide the correct service address and discuss travel arrangements. Wear comfortable, exercise-friendly clothing unless otherwise discussed for your session.

Wellness Equity and Low-Income Rates

Subsidized rates are available for wellness equity. Please contact [email protected] directly to apply and discuss an appropriate arrangement. Fish does not currently accept health insurance.

4. Bodywork cancellations and rescheduling

• At least 48 hours before the appointment: full refund.
• At least 24 hours but less than 48 hours before: 50% refund.
• Less than 24 hours before: no refund; rescheduling is available by arrangement.

Contact [email protected] or 757-773-5572 about a cancellation or reschedule, or use the confirmation link provided by your booking system. A request is not a confirmed new appointment until the replacement time is agreed. These rules concern Fish’s direct bodywork sessions; appointments or events governed by a separate confirmed policy follow that policy.

5. Facilitation, workshops, private events, and MIRTH

Group and organizational experiences are scoped individually. Contact for scope and pricing. A written proposal or event agreement should set out the format, group size, duration, deliverables, fees, deposit or payment schedule, event location, access arrangements, cancellation terms, and responsibilities of the host and participants.

International facilitation is subject to scheduling and at least one week’s notice. The host covers agreed travel, accommodation, and day rates. No event booking or travel commitment is confirmed merely by an inquiry.

MIRTH: Mobile Infusion & Ritual Tea House is a distinct offering under the umbrella of The Alchemy of Service. Its event details, ingredients, access needs, payment terms, and cancellation arrangements are confirmed for each engagement. Emerging deeper-work offerings remain in development until a specific offer is confirmed.

6. Alignment Calls and independent booking platforms

A 15-minute Alignment Call is a short phone or video conversation to explore fit. It is not a bodywork session, treatment, or guaranteed offer of services. Provide a reachable phone number when requesting a phone call.

Manage existing Cal.com and Little Engine appointments through the system where you booked. Those providers have their own platform and payment terms. Appointments at Hume in Venice should be arranged through the applicable Hume process at hume.la; this site does not establish Hume’s rates or policies.

7. Consent, suitability, and conduct

Services require respectful conduct, ongoing consent, and communication about comfort and boundaries. You may decline an exercise or form of touch, request a change, pause, or stop. Fish may pause or decline service where a request is outside scope, boundaries are not respected, or a suitable arrangement cannot be made. Any payment consequences should be addressed under the confirmed policy and applicable law, not assumed from this clause.

The website is intended for adults. Any service involving a minor requires a separate confirmed arrangement and appropriate permissions. The Disclaimer explains service scope, health considerations, and the limits of confidentiality in groups.

8. Content, photos, and testimonials

Website writing, photographs, artwork, and other materials belong to their respective owners. You may view the site for personal use. Obtain permission before reusing content beyond what applicable law permits. Do not record a session, photograph participants, or publish another person’s private information without the relevant permissions.

Providing a testimonial or attending an event does not itself grant permission to publish your name, image, or personal story. Separate publication permission should be obtained.

9. Website availability and legal rights

Website information and availability may change. We aim to keep service information accurate, but technical errors can occur; contact us if booking or pricing information appears inconsistent. No particular outcome from a service is guaranteed.

Nothing in these terms removes a right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded, excuses unlawful conduct, or requires you to waive claims merely by viewing this page. Any additional event-specific agreement must be presented separately. These website terms do not establish an arbitration agreement or a class-action waiver.

10. Updates and contact

Changes will be posted here with a revised effective date. Updated website terms apply prospectively; confirmed bookings remain subject to the terms agreed for that booking except as lawfully amended by agreement. Questions: [email protected].
