Legal

Terms of use

Last updated October 2026

This page is written as a starting point in plain language. Please have it reviewed by a qualified adviser before relying on it.

These terms cover the use of this website and sessions booked with Meraki, A Soul's Journey to Wellness in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Using the site, or booking a session, means agreeing to them.

Booking a session

When you choose a time on the booking page and confirm it, your session is booked and a confirmation email follows. A request sent through the older request form is an enquiry, and your time is held only once it has been confirmed in writing.

Cancelling, rescheduling, late cancellations and no-shows are explained in the cancellation policy, which forms part of these terms.

Please wear comfortable clothing for Thai Yoga Massage, and come freshly showered for Thai Oil Massage.

Payment

Payment is due at the end of the session. Accepted methods: Visa & MasterCard, Discover, Cash.

Prices shown on this site are in Canadian dollars, include everything, and may change. The price shown when your session is booked is the price you pay.

Gift cards

A gift card request sent through this site is a request, not a purchase. We reply with how to pay and how the card will reach you, and the card is issued once payment is received.

Gift cards can be put toward any session. They do not expire, and no fees are taken from the balance over time. They cannot be exchanged for cash except where the law requires it.

Please treat a gift card like cash. Tell us if one is lost and we will do what we can with the record we hold.

Who the sessions are for

Sessions are for adults. Please tell us before your first visit if there is anything we should know so the space works for you.

Scope of the work

Traditional Thai massage and the related bodywork offered here support relaxation, mobility and general wellbeing. They are not medical treatment, diagnosis or physiotherapy, and they do not replace advice from a qualified health professional.

Please tell Shannon about injuries, pregnancy, recent surgery, or any medical condition before the session begins so the work can be adapted or, where appropriate, declined.

Consent and conduct

You may pause, adjust or end a session at any time, for any reason, without explanation. Consent is checked throughout.

This is a professional practice. Any request for services of a sexual nature ends the session immediately, with the full fee payable, and no further appointments will be offered.

Lateness and missed appointments

Sessions begin and end at the scheduled time so the next person is not kept waiting. If you arrive late, the remaining time is yours at the full fee.

Repeated missed appointments without notice may mean prepayment is asked for in future.

Reviews

The reviews quoted on this site were left publicly by clients on third party listings and are reproduced as written, with first names and last initials only. They describe one person's experience and are not a promise of yours.

This website and its content

Content on this site is offered for general information and is written in good faith, but no guarantee of outcome is given or implied.

The writing, photographs, illustrations and the character Sathu the Sloth belong to Meraki, A Soul's Journey to Wellness. Please ask before reusing any of it.

To the extent Ontario law allows, Meraki is not responsible for losses that come from relying on information on this website. Nothing on this page limits any right you have under Ontario consumer protection law.

Using this website

You are welcome to read, share links to, and print pages from this site for your own use. Please do not copy it wholesale, scrape it with automated tools, or present any part of it as your own.

Please do not use the forms to send anything unlawful, abusive or misleading, to pretend to be someone else, or to test or probe the site's security. Submissions that look automated are quietly discarded.

The site is offered as it is. It is looked after with care, but it may sometimes be unavailable or contain a mistake. If you spot one, an email is always welcome.

Personal information you send through the site is handled as the privacy policy describes, and what the site keeps in your browser is listed in the cookie policy. Both form part of these terms.

Client accounts

If you open a client account, you sign in with a link sent to your email. Your account shows only your own bookings, credits and gift cards. Please keep access to your email private, and sign out on shared devices.

The private studio room

One part of this site is a private, password protected room used by Shannon Scott to read the enquiries people send and to keep her appointment book, client cards and payment records. It is not open to the public. Trying to sign in to it, guess a password, or reach the records behind it without her personal permission is not allowed, and sign in attempts are recorded.

Anyone she does give access to agrees to keep what they see confidential, to use it only for Meraki's own work, to sign out when finished, and never to share their password.

Law and changes

These terms are governed by the laws of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. If you live in another country, nothing here takes away protections that your own law gives you and that cannot be waived.

If the terms change, this page is updated and the date at the top changes. Questions about them can be emailed to meraki.asoulsjourney@gmail.com or sent to 283 Bay Street, Thunder Bay, ON P7B 1R7.
