Here at Pure Body Health, we are committed to minimizing wait times and maximizing the convenience of appointment times. In order to provide quality and timely services to all clients, our clinic strictly enforces our policies for no-show, late cancellation and late arrival clients.
If you need to cancel, reschedule or shorten your appointment with us, please notify us as soon as possible with a minimum of 24-hours’ notice. When you book an appointment, we reserve that time for you. We need adequate notice of cancellation for all our services to allow enough time for your appointment slot to be filled. Unless we can fill your spot with another appointment of the same value, you will still be charged the full fee for your appointment if you do not cancel and/or reschedule before the 24-hour period. If a shorter appointment is booked for your late-cancelled slot, you will only be charged the difference.
To reap the full benefits of your treatment, please arrive at least a few minutes prior to your appointment time. All appointments will end at the scheduled time. If late, you will only be treated for the remaining amount of your appointment time, allowing us to keep on schedule for our next clients.
We are committed to providing high quality care to all clients as efficiently as possible. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Registered Massage Therapy and Acupuncture are recognized health care professions in British Columbia. The majority of extended health care plans partially or fully cover fees for these treatments. Policies typically have a percentage of coverage and/or up to a dollar amount annually. Each individual plan may have different coverage for each treatment type, check with your insurance company.
We offer direct billing to Blue Cross and most Extended Health Plans free of charge. Depending on individual coverage, full payment or partial payment may be required at the time of treatment.
Please inform the receptionist if you would like the clinic to direct bill your insurance. There is a consent form that includes the information we need in order for us to provide this service.
Please be aware that we cannot guarantee direct billing at every appointment. This could be due to issues with individual insurance plans or problems with the submission portal.
We can electronically submit for Desjardins on behalf of our clients, but they still need to pay upfront and then payment is returned to them by Desjardins.
