What we do and don’t do

Little City Treat offers Clients the ability to enjoy a range of premium beauty therapy treatments in the comfort of their own home, workplace or hotel.

Our Site provides a platform through which we provide the Site Services, facilitating introductions between Clients seeking Therapist Services and our network of Therapists. Our services are limited to making the Site available, effecting introductions, managing Bookings and acting as a limited payment collection agent on behalf of Therapists for the collection of the Therapist Fee.

We do not provide Therapist Services and we do not employ any of the Therapists.

Neither we, nor the Therapists are healthcare providers and neither we nor they provide any medical advice or treatment.

Before allowing a Therapist to join our network we interview them and ask them to provide evidence that they have achieved NVQ level 2 in Beauty Therapy / Massage or higher and have appropriate insurance in place. We also carry out CRB checks on all therapists before accepting them into our network.

However, we do not guarantee or warrant and we make no representation whatsoever regarding the reliability, quality or suitability of the Therapists.

We do not contract with Clients for the provision of Therapist Services. By booking Therapist Services through the Site you are entering into a contract with the relevant Therapist for the provision of those services and we accept no responsibility or liability nor do we make any warranty, representation or guarantee in respect of the Therapist’s performance under that contract.

Booking Process

Through the Site, Clients may book various Therapist Services at a time of their choosing. To make a Booking you should follow the instructions on the Site or App and provide the necessary information.

Client may request a particular Therapist but Little City Treat can’t guarantee that they will be available at the requested time. If they are not available Little City Treat will suggest alternatives or agree another time with the Client when the requested Therapist is available. Once Little City Treat has found a Therapist who is available at the requested time Little City Treat will revert to the Client seek confirmation of the Booking via email and / or a push notification through the Little City Treat App or Site. Once a Booking has been confirmed, you will be required to authorise payment of the Therapist Fee through the Site’s payment system. In the event of a Client or Therapist cancellation, any cancellation charges or Fees (if any, and as applicable) shall be made in accordance with our Cancellation Policy, and which forms part of these Terms.

Fees

In respect of each Booking, Clients shall be required to authorise the Therapist Fee in the amount indicated on the Site at the time of booking. Little City Treat collects a Commission from each Therapist for each Booking. The Commission is calculated as a percentage of the total Therapist Fee for each Booking. The Therapist Fee is payable to the relevant Therapist for provision of the Therapist Services and is collected upon completion of the booking. Little City Treat shall either a) collect the Therapist Fee from the Client in its capacity as limited payment collection agent on behalf of the Therapists; or b) arrange for the Therapist Fee (less any Commission) to be paid directly to the Therapists through its 3rd party operated payment system. We reserve the right to amend the Fees at any time at our discretion. The applicable Fees payable from time to time shall be notified to you through the Site at the time of Booking. An increase in Fees shall not apply to any confirmed Bookings made prior to the publication of the revised Fees on the Site.

Appropriateness of Therapist Services

You are solely responsible for ensuring the Therapist Services you choose to Book are appropriate for you. You should make your Therapist aware of any pre-existing medical condition (whether physical or mental) prior to commencement of any session. You will be asked by your Therapist to complete a consultation for on each occasion you receive Therapist Services. It is your responsibility to ensure that the information you provide in response to the consultation form is complete, accurate and up to date. If you have any doubt at all about whether a particular Therapist Service is appropriate for you, you should raise this with your Therapist and consult with a qualified medical practitioner before you proceed.

Client Conduct

We request that you treat all Therapists with courtesy and respect and that you provide them with a safe, clean and appropriate location to perform the Therapist Services. Therapists shall be entitled to refuse to perform Therapist Services in the event that you have not provided a safe, clean and appropriate location for them or you behave towards them in a manner which is discourteous, disrespectful, abusive or otherwise inappropriate. We reserve the right to withhold access to the Site Services at our absolute discretion in the event that you behave towards any Therapist in a manner which is discourteous, disrespectful or abusive or which we otherwise deem to be inappropriate.
