Dear Retreat Guests,
I wanted to take a moment to share a little about how I schedule massage and facial services for Moments Retreat and Memory Lane Inn. Many of you know I’ve been serving at Moments since 2012 and at Memory Lane Inn since 2021, and it’s truly been a joy to get to know each of you during your crafting weekends.
Both retreats can host quite a few guests (up to 15 at Moments and up to 12 at Memory Lane Inn), and I sometimes work at both locations in the same weekend. On top of that, I also run a private practice, and it’s important to me that those clients have a fair opportunity to schedule appointments as well.
Because my work is physically demanding—and because I juggle family, ministry, and multiple work commitments—I need to plan my schedule carefully. Lately, I’ve noticed that many requests for retreat massages are coming in the week of the event. While I want to be flexible and accommodating, last-minute bookings make it very difficult for me to balance my commitments and to prepare physically and mentally for the number of sessions I provide.
To ensure I’m able to serve everyone and balance my other commitments, I kindly ask that all massage and facial appointments be requested as soon as you book your retreat, or at least two weeks in advance. The earlier you reach out, the better the chance I’ll be able to be there for you and accommodate your preferred time.
A quick update: I no longer offer discounts on Thursdays and Fridays. I am available to be booked on those days, but appointments are subject to availability and previous promotions no longer apply. My current rate is $2 per minute for all services, including both massage and facials (Facials only offered at Moments).
Advance booking not only helps me give you the best care possible, but it also ensures I can serve all my clients—retreat guests and private clients alike—without overextending myself.
You’re always welcome to book with me directly at https://michellereedlmt.janeapp.com. As soon as you finalize your next retreat dates, please reach out to me by text at 214-548-7981. Just let me know the group name you’re with, which crafting retreat you’ll be staying at, and the dates of your stay.
I want to make the process as easy and smooth as possible, and I’m truly honored to be part of your retreat experience. Thank you for trusting me with your care—I look forward to helping you relax and recharge!
Warmly,
Michelle Reed Lmt
