Spa Treatment Acknowledgment

For waxing, massage and beauty treatments: the health disclosures, the draping, the right to stop, and the aftercare.

Where this comes from

Not a sample we wrote for this page. This is the document the product puts in your account, as a draft, the moment you say what you do.

Written for your trade

Name your trade during setup — salons, spas and beauty services — and this is waiting for you, already written, in your words, with the blanks marked and the points a lawyer settles flagged for one. Edit it, or paste in what you already use.

It is a starting point and not legal advice: the wording is yours to change and your attorney's to check.

How it reaches your account

  1. Say what you do. Pick your trade when you set up; nothing to find or download.
  2. It is there as a draft. The 9 blanks marked, and 1 point flagged for a lawyer.
  3. Settle the notes, then send. The product will not send it with a note still in it.

How this works for salons, spas and beauty services

What it asks you to fill in

Read off the document itself, so this list cannot drift away from what the document actually asks for.

9 blanks in this document

business nameguest namedatetreatmenttherapist nametreatment descriptionhealth disclosuresskincare productsaftercare hours

Each one is a box on the send screen, and a value your own system can pass through the API. The rest of the wording is the same for every signer.

How they are filled

  • Once per send, from what you already know.
  • Or from your own system, through the API.
  • Into the document, never into its wording.
  • What somebody signed is the version they were shown.
Page one of the Spa Treatment Acknowledgment, as a blank copy for Example Business: the document's title and opening clauses, with a line for each blank still to be filled in.
Page one as the dashboard prints a blank copy: every blank a line, named.

Questions it can ask

Beyond the blanks, a template can ask the signer questions. These come from the product's own question library and suit this document; add them, change them, or write your own.

As the signer sees them
  • Any medical condition that could affect you todayLeave blank if none.OptionalHidden from staff once answered
  • Any medication we should know aboutOptionalHidden from staff once answered
  • Any allergies we should know aboutLeave blank if none.OptionalHidden from staff once answered
  • Are you pregnant?OptionalHidden from staff once answered
  • I am fit to take part todayPut in front of your staff if it is left unticked

Each question is checked where it is answered — a date that is on the calendar, a birthday that is not in the future, an address long enough to be one — in the same words on the signing page, on the counter tablet and in the API, and the signature waits until every required one is done.

  • Sections. Group questions under a heading, and give a section a page of its own.
  • Conditions. Show a question only when an earlier answer calls for it; a hidden question is never asked and never owed.
  • Flags. Put an answer in front of your staff when it needs a person, such as a safety box left unticked.
  • Questions first. Ask them before the document is shown, and the document after.

What a lawyer has to settle

These are the notes already written into the document, not our opinion about the law where you operate. The product refuses to send a document with one still in it, which is the point of them.

Check what a licensed therapist may and may not offer where you operate, and which treatments require a medical referral or supervision.

SignSealer does not give legal advice and this document is not legal advice. What it does is put the questions in front of you before somebody signs, rather than after.

The document

The real text, with the blanks shown as blanks and the notes above lifted out so they are read rather than skimmed past.

Spa Treatment Acknowledgment

business name — client guest name, on date. Treatment: treatment. Therapist: therapist name.

  1. What the treatment is. treatment description. I have been told what it involves, how long it takes, what it will feel like, and what to expect afterwards.
  2. Not medical treatment. This is a beauty or relaxation service. It is not medical care, the therapist is not a clinician, and nothing here diagnoses or treats a condition. If I have a condition, I will see a doctor about it.
  3. My health. I have told the salon truthfully about anything on this list that applies to me: health disclosures — including skin conditions, recent waxing, peels or laser work, retinoids and acne medication, sunburn, allergies, diabetes, circulation or nerve conditions, recent surgery, blood thinners, and whether I am pregnant or breastfeeding. I understand some treatments cannot be done safely with some of these, and that the salon may decline.
  4. Waxing and hair removal, where that is the treatment. I understand that skin may lift if I have used retinoids, acne medication or had a peel recently, and that redness, bumps, ingrown hairs and temporary sensitivity are normal. I have disclosed everything I use on the area: skincare products.
  5. Draping and comfort. I will be draped, only the area being worked on is uncovered, and I can ask the therapist to stop, change pressure or leave the room at any moment, for any reason, with no explanation needed.
  6. Aftercare. I have been given aftercare instructions, including what to keep off the area and for how long, and I understand that heat, sun, swimming and friction in the first aftercare hours hours are the common causes of a poor result.
  7. Release. To the extent the law where business name operates allows, I release business name and its staff from claims arising from the ordinary and disclosed risks of this treatment and from a reaction caused by something I did not disclose, other than claims arising from their negligence.

By signing I confirm that I have read this, had every question answered, and meant to sign it.
