Dear Clients,

 

Please ensure that you have completed your PWA membership form and submitted all required documents before scheduling your wellness session. You must also be verified by me via email before booking your appointment.

 

My booking calendar is set for 3-4 months out, and I am currently taking 20-25 clients per month in a 3-month cycle. To secure your spot, I recommend scheduling both your wellness session and follow-up appointments at the same time. Follow-up appointments are available every other Friday only.

 

If there is no availability, please contact me to be added to the waitlist for the next available slots after 3 months.

 

If the available times do not work for you, please contact me in advance for any cancellations or to discuss accommodations.

 

Thank you for your cooperation!

 

Best regards,

Akina’s Garden Healing

Subject: Important Update: Serving Locally for Natural Products, Wellness Services Available Nationwide!

We have an exciting update to share! After careful consideration, we’ve decided to focus on serving our local community exclusively for our natural products. As of 03/01/2025, we will no longer be offering shipping for out-of-state orders.

Why the Change?
This shift allows us to provide more personalized service and ensure the highest quality for our local customers. We’re excited to continue offering:

Faster delivery and in-person availability for our products within the local area.

What does this mean?

Our natural products will be available locally only and will not be shipped outside of our community or stocked in stores at this time.

Looking Ahead:

As our business grows, we may expand the availability of our natural products to other areas. We’re excited about the potential for the future and will keep you updated if and when we expand our reach.

But don’t worry!

Although our natural products are limited to local sales right now, we are still here to support you with wellness consultations, group sessions, and workshops that are available nationwide. Whether you're seeking personalized wellness guidance, joining a virtual group session, or participating in a workshop on self-care and holistic living, we are here to assist you no matter where you are.

How can you still get involved?

Book a wellness consultation (virtual)

Join our group wellness sessions

Participate in an online workshop or program

Stay connected with us through social media and our newsletter

We truly appreciate your continued support as we focus on building a stronger, more personal connection with our local community. If you have any questions or need more information, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us!

Thank you for being part of our journey!

With gratitude,
Choloe Thomas
