Rescheduling/Cancelation.
Please ensure cancelation/ rescheduling requests be made in advance by 24+ (or more) hrs; as less than 24 hours is often not enough time to replace the appointment, any cancellation request after that time is subject to charge the full rate.  Possible exceptions include unsafe driving conditions, illness, and/or other emergency.  
Payment

The service prices  apply to the initial office visit (s). Individuals whose treatment options include more consistent appointments are eligible to receive custom (often lower-priced) rates.

I would like help from someone who can help me find the right focus, knowledge, and accountability structures to make achieving my health goals / resolving my concerns happen effectively, efficiently, and sustainably (for good).  

I am reasonably certain I want to focus on lifestyle change (vs. one of the physical medicine services offered).   I may be open to your suggestion if you think a particular service will help me best reach my health goal. 
 
Please include in the booking note your preference for meeting in person, by video call, or by phone. Health coaching services receive a comprehensive plan similar to that listed in the two services above, although it may take several visits before we have enough information and time to compose it.  

I am open to the services we determine as best suited to meeting my needs, preferences, and goals.  

I understand my customized program may include health coaching, massage/bodywork, and/or exercises that will help me optimize comfort and resolve pain, improve tranquility, range-of-motion, strength, balance and brain function.

I am open to the services we determine as best suited to meeting my needs, preferences, and goals.  

I understand this is a time-flexible office visit in which I will be billed according to the time spent discussing and supporting my health, at an approximate rate of $100/hr + $25 (eg 2 hrs = $225, 1 hrs = $125).  Time will not exceed 3 hours (ie $325).  

I understand my customized program may include health coaching, massage/bodywork, and/or mindfulness-based movement that will help me optimize comfort and resolve pain, improve tranquility, range-of-motion, strength, balance and brain function.  By booking this visit, I am trusting the doctor to determine the most helpful use of time and am willing to pay whatever the final cost is.  I understand that the first visits often use the whole three hrs; but can be adapted to my communicated needs.  
I am seeking to naturally and sustainably manage and/or resolve a condition, and/or practices to optimize my health-potential.  

I am open to the services we determine as best suited to meeting my needs, preferences, and goals.  

After reading over your website, I feel your practice is likely to help me. 

*While we will eventually gather enough health information in the shorter appointments to develop a comprehensive plan for your health, growth and success, planning for a longer first visit - although a larger up-front investment - can save time, money and energy overall, as we can more quickly gather what's needed to feel confident in addressing your unique situation.  

The other appointments are lower-cost ways for new patients to have an initial experience with us. If you are reasonably sure you want to be supported in addressing a long-term health goal or concern, we recommend starting here, or even better with the intro offer below.


This visit may occur through secure video call if in-person is not possible or ideal.  


It includes a systems assessment where we learn about your health systems, your primary goal (s) or concern (s), medical and health history.  

It also includes education on the science of change, and on how the process of working with us supports making your desired change solid. 

This appointment may also include (based on patient preference and need): bodywork therapy or movement therapy, helping to improve circulation, relaxation, and to commit the conversational learning to memory.  

This appointment will also most likely include health education and coaching on a concrete step to immediately help with feeling better:  less pain, more comfort, less distraction, more focus, and less fear and nervousness, more calm and more contentedness.  

We may meet 1-2 additional times before a comprehensive plan is developed, at which point we will present it to you in virtual and printed form, at which point you are welcome to take the time you need to find the best way forward for you.  

You will receive a detailed and color-printed treatment plan which will include:  a) Summary of the chief concerns reframed into extremely specific steps and goals; b) the primary and secondary changes we expect to occur, and by when we expect to see them c) a few different options for treatment, our explanation of the pros and cons of each approach, and why we think the proposed path is the best one, d) investment totals, and packages that will save you time and money.  e) educational materials and resources

Please help me using the methods you determine are best suited to my needs, preferences, and goals.  This treatment option includes the intake visit described above, and two additional appointments (Each up to 120+ min, which include additional evaluation, education, and preferred treatment).  

Purchasing this package saves up to $111 (ie $801 v. $812) when appointments are paid for separately). 
To purchase, book this visit, and ask about the "intro offer" when we collect payment at the end of the first visit.

If you are uncertain what to pay, please pay the bolded amount, or more.  

If that does not work for you, please let us know what will.

We will do our best to make it work.

For 100+ min Traditional Office Visit

The business needs to make an average of $189 per time-flexible office visit (usually 120 min and flexibility to meet longer).  $225 supports business growth.

Those who pay more than this allow Tortoise Mountain to work with patients needing a lower rate. If you are uncertain what to pay, please pay at least $225 a visit.  If that does not work for you, please let us know what will.  We will do our best to make it work.  

A lower rate may mean our frequency of working together is reduced.  

Still, we'll try our best to make a lasting difference!  

If we cannot afford to work with you in a way that we think will make a meaningful and lasting difference, we will do our best to provide you with what you need to take the next best step towards healing and optimal health.  

Whatever the rate, your contribution supports the health of your community, and the development of training programs for future service-minded leaders.
