3.2 Guests. If you purchase and receive Services from us outside of a specific membership package or a “Solo Factor” or a “Factor Pack” or a “Factor Bundle” or a “Bio-Stacking Package”, then we consider you a “Guest.” All Services provided to Guests are subject to these Terms.

3.3 Members. If you purchase and receive Services from us under a membership package, then we consider you a “Member.” As a Member, you will be expected to enter into a Membership Agreement with us (which incorporates these Terms). All membership packages are sold on a recurring dues basis, meaning your membership will automatically renew each month until you properly cancel the Agreement, or the Agreement expires (a “Recurring Dues Membership”). Under a Recurring Dues Membership, you will be allocated the same pre-determined number of sessions, services or treatments each month in exchange for a recurring monthly payment. Unless stated otherwise by the Agreement, sessions, services or treatments s provided under a Recurring Dues Membership are redeemable only at the facility where the membership is sold. All treatments sold under a Recurring Dues Membership expire automatically six (6) months from the date of issuance. Recurring Dues Memberships are cancellable at any time with written notice (see, Cancellation policy). Once you cancel your Agreement, you will still be able to access the Evergreen Factor facility for purposes of redeeming any allocated but unused sessions, services or treatments until such time as they expire.
3.4 Billing Details. These billing terms only apply to Recurring Dues Memberships. Your Recurring Dues Membership will begin on the date you first submit payment through a valid and accepted payment method. This date of first payment will become your established “Billing Date” for all subsequent installments. Unless we communicate a different period, each “Billing Cycle” will run one month (30 days) from your established Billing Date. With each successful payment, we will allocate to your account the pre-determined number of sessions, services or treatments for use as described in your Membership Agreement.
3.5 CONSENT TO AUTOMATIC RENEWAL. IF YOU HAVE A RECURRING DUES MEMBERSHIP, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE, CONSENT AND AGREE THAT YOUR MEMBERSHIP WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW EACH MONTH UNTIL SUCH TIME AS YOU PROPERLY CANCEL THE AGREEMENT. AUTOMATIC RENEWAL MEANS WE WILL CONTINUE TO CHARGE YOU FOR SERVICES UNDER THE TERMS OF YOUR AGREEMENT UNTIL YOU CANCEL OR WE TERMINATE THE AGREEMENT. TO CANCEL YOUR RECURRING DUES MEMBERSHIP, YOU MUST PROVIDE US WITH A 30 DAY WRITTEN NOTICE OF CANCELLATION.
3.6 Freeze/Suspend Membership. You can freeze/suspend your membership at any time, for up to 6 months. All recurring dues will be suspended and not charged during this time. Your membership will resume on the same billing cycle on the unfreeze/un-suspend date indicated on the written freeze/suspend form.
3.7 No Show + Late Arrival Policy. If arrival is delayed, we will make every effort to accommodate your full appointment but this is not always possible. Service time may be abbreviated to avoid delays for other guests and are charged at full value. If you schedule a massage or bodywork treatment and you either (a) fail to show; or (b) arrive more than 15 minutes after the scheduled start time, you permit us to charge you the full value for the treatment (i.e., 100% of the treatment price). To maximize the benefit of your scheduled treatment, we recommend that you arrive 10 to 15 minutes early to permit ample time to get checked in and prepare for the treatment. We do not provide refunds on treatments that you miss or for which you show up late.
3.8 Late Cancel Policy. As a courtesy to you and other Members and Guests, we strive to start Evergreen Factor sessions and treatments at their scheduled times.

If cancellation of your treatment is within 12 hours from the scheduled start time, you permit us to charge you for half the value of the treatment (i.e., 50% of the treatment price). We do not provide refunds for treatments that you fail to properly cancel.
3.9 Loss of Property. Members and Guests are encouraged to leave valuables at home. If you bring valuables into the Evergreen Factor facility or onto our premises (including the parking lot), we shall not be liable for the disappearance, loss, theft, or damage to personal property, including, among other things, money, jewelry, negotiable securities, and other items belonging to you or your guests.
3.10 Quiet Environment. As a courtesy to other Members and Guests, please maintain a quiet level of conversation. Cell phones and other mobile devices must be turned off or put on silent upon check-in.
3.11 Gift Cards. A gift certificate or gift card for Services is not the same as a membership. Gift certificates and gift cards are subject to their own terms. If you wish to purchase a gift certificate or gift card, the gift card can only be redeemed at the Evergreen Factor facility where it was purchased or the location selected on our website. All Services used under a gift certificate or gift card will be subject to these Terms.
3.12 Facility Rules. Members and Guests will conduct themselves appropriately at all times and comply with all applicable laws, including, without limitation, laws governing alcohol and drug use and intoxication, rules and regulations established by us in our sole discretion (as made available on the Site or in the facility), and directions of governmental authorities and Evergreen Factor personnel (collectively, “Rules”). If in our judgement you violate the Rules, or if you act in a manner contrary to the best interests or safety of our Employees, Members or Guests, then we shall have the right to refuse you entry into our Evergreen Factor facility, or to discontinue Service, or temporarily or permanently suspend your membership (as applicable).
3.13 Minors Policy. Evergreen Factor will provide services to guests between the age of 13 to 17 only if a parent/guardian is present to sign the guest waiver.

5.2 Cancellation. You may cancel your Recurring Dues Membership at any time by providing us with 14 day written notice stating your desire to cancel.

If you have allocated but unused Evergreen Factor treatments or sessions available at the time of cancellation, you will have six (6) months from their date of issuance to redeem them. If not used redeemed within this six (6) month window, the Evergreen Factor services, treatments, or sessions will be considered forfeited and lost, and no refund will be provided.

6. Payment Terms
6.1 Payment Authorization. You expressly authorize the Evergreen Factor entity listed in your Membership Agreement or Guest Form (which, for purposes of this payment authorization, shall also include our authorized third-party payment service providers) to seek payment of all fees, charges or other amounts due under the Agreement on or after each payment due date by charging the credit card on file. You understand that a charge may not immediately post to the card. If you have provided multiple payment cards to us, and in the event a payment that we attempt to collect fails, you authorize us to attempt to collect the payment by initiating one or more payment attempts to any additional payment cards that you have provided to us.
It shall be your responsibility to ensure that the credit card number that we have on file for you is valid so that all fees, charges or other amounts due under the Agreement can be charged to that card. If any payment card that you have previously provided changes or expires, you agree to promptly notify us of such change so that there is always at least one valid card on file. If any payment subject to this authorization is returned unpaid and a valid card is not provided within ten (10) days after the regularly scheduled date for payment, we may exercise any and all rights available to us, whether under the Agreement or under applicable law, which may include, but are not limited to, suspension of your membership until such payment is made, assessing a late payment fee, and/or terminating the Agreement and/or Services.
In the event we make an error in processing a charge, you authorize us to initiate a credit or debit to the card on file to correct the error. If you inadvertently transpose a digit or make a similar error in providing us with information about a payment method, you authorize us to correct the error after verifying the information with you. You understand that your financial institution may charge you a fee in addition to any service charge you may owe us if any payment authorized above is dishonored or returned unpaid, and you agree that we will have no liability regarding such fees.
You may revoke this payment authorization in person at the Evergreen Factor, by calling the phone number, by sending us an email, or by mailing a letter to the contact information listed in your Membership Agreement or Guest Form with enough notice to give us a reasonable opportunity (typically three business days) to act on your request. If you revoke this authorization, you will still be responsible for paying any amounts you owe under the Agreement and your membership will terminate as of the date of revocation.
6.2 Default. Should you default on any payment obligation as called for in the Agreement, we will have the right to declare the entire remaining balance due and payable and you agree to pay allowable interest, and all costs of collection, including but not limited to collection agency fees, court costs and attorneys’ fees. A default occurs when any payment due under the Agreement is past due for more than 90 days. We reserve the right to suspend Services if a scheduled invoice is not paid, and you consent that such a suspension of Services is reasonable. This provision is subject to, and shall be superseded by, any applicable local, state or federal laws.
6.3 Payment. At this time, we accept cash payments at Evergreen Factor in- facility. Credit and debit cards, including MasterCard, Visa and American Express, are welcome in-facility and online along with gift cards. We only accept payment from U.S. bank accounts. We can also accept payment through an HSA plan as long as the account credit card is provided and approvals have been met. Contact your HSA provider to verify what treatments and services qualify. We do not provide super bills.

9. General Release & Liability Waiver
All reference to “I” or “me” in the General Release and Liability Waiver below shall refer to you., Evergreen Factor guest.
I hereby give my consent to receive the Services the Evergreen Factor entity listed in my Membership Agreement or Guest Form, and I acknowledge and agree that I am doing so at my own risk. My health and safety with respect to such Services are my sole responsibility. I acknowledge that my receipt of the Services may result in bodily injury or other harm to me. My decision to receive Services is voluntary, and I know of, understand, and assume any and all the risks associated therewith.
In exchange for receiving the Services, I, for myself and on behalf of my heirs, executors, administrators and personal representatives, hereby waive, release, discharge and agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Evergreen Factor entity listed in my Membership Agreement or Guest Form, and each of its members, officers, owners, parents, franchisor, subsidiaries, affiliates, independent contractors, employees, consultants, attorneys, personnel, and agents (collectively, “Evergreen Factor Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all demands, claims, injuries (including, without limitation, personal injury, illness, disease, or death), legal or administrative proceedings, losses, liabilities, damages, penalties, liens, judgments, costs or expenses whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs), whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, whether or not caused by any negligence on the part of any Evergreen Factor Indemnified Parties (collectively, “Claims”), that may arise on account of or in any way in connection with my receipt of the Services or otherwise on the premises of Evergreen Factor Indemnified Parties. I acknowledge and understand that this waiver of liability includes any negligence of Evergreen Factor, and any other Evergreen Factor Indemnified Parties, excluding only intentional wrongdoing, willful misconduct, or any act or omission finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be grossly negligent. I acknowledge and understand that this waiver is intended to be a complete release of any responsibility for personal injuries sustained by me or any guest while on in the Evergreen Factor facility or on the premises, whether using services, products, or equipment, or receiving the Services or not. Further, I, for myself and on behalf of my heirs, executors, administrators and personal representatives, hereby agree to indemnify and hold Evergreen Factor and each of the Evergreen Factor Indemnified Parties harmless from and against any and all Claims that may arise on account of or in any way in connection with any injuries (including, without limitation, personal injury, illness, disease, or death) to other persons, or any damage to property, in any way caused by or attributable to me, whether negligent, intentional, or otherwise.
I acknowledge and understand that this waiver of liability covers and includes any transmission of, or exposure to, any contagious disease during the Services or otherwise while in the facility or on the premises, even as a result of negligence on the part of Evergreen Factor Indemnified Parties. This includes, without limitation, COVID-19. I understand that the Services are provided for the basic purpose of general wellness, physical fitness, relaxation, stress reduction, and relief of muscular pain and tension. I further understand that Evergreen Factor treatments and sessions should not be considered a substitute for medical examination, diagnosis or treatment, and that I should see a physician, chiropractor, or other qualified medical specialist for any medical condition or physical ailments. Because the session and treatments at Evergreen Factor should not be done under certain medical conditions, I affirm that I have stated all my known medical conditions in writing and have answered all questions asked of me in writing or orally honestly and completely. I agree to keep the Evergreen Factor entity listed in my Membership Agreement or Guest Form, and the Care Coordinator, updated as to any changes in my medical profile, and I understand and agree that there will be no liability on the part of Evergreen Factor Indemnified Parties providing the Services should I fail to do so.
10. Agreement to Arbitrate; Class Action Waiver
10.1 Agreement to Arbitrate. As used in this section, “Evergreen Factor” shall include the Evergreen Factor facility and entity listed in my Membership Agreement or Guest Form, and any of their affiliates, employees, owners, agents, representatives, assigns or service providers.
You and Evergreen Factor agree that any dispute, claim or controversy (“Claim” or “Claims”) relating in any way to this Agreement, or the products or services provided by Evergreen Factor, will be resolved through BINDING ARBITRATION rather than in court, with the following exceptions:
- Either you or we may assert Claims in small claims court if jurisdiction is appropriate in such courts;
- Either you or we may assert Claims seeking equitable or injunctive relief in the state or federal courts found in the county where your Evergreen Factor is located; provided, however, that any individual Claims will still be subject to arbitration; or
- In the event the Agreement as a whole is found by a judge in a court of law not to be subject to arbitration, then you and Evergreen Factor agree and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts found in the county where you’re Evergreen Factor facility is located and waive any objection based on venue or forum non conveniens with respect to jurisdiction therein.
The Agreement to Arbitrate as described herein shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), including its procedural provisions, in all respects. This means that the FAA governs, among other things, the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate and all of its provisions, including, without limitation, the class action waiver discussed below. State arbitration laws do not govern in any respect.
The parties intend for this Agreement to Arbitrate to be interpreted broadly and to survive termination of the Agreement for any reason. A judge in a competent court of law, and not the arbitrator, shall be permitted to interpret and determine the validity of the arbitration provision, including unconscionability.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your Claim to the address of Evergreen Factor facility entity listed in your Guest Registration. The arbitration will be conducted by an authorized arbitration specialized third party. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submission, or in person in the county where your Evergreen Factor facility is located, or at another agreement mutually agreed to by Evergreen Factor, LLC. Judgment on an arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
You and Evergreen Factor agree that this Agreement to Arbitrate has been included to rapidly and inexpensively resolve any Claims between the parties and that this section will be grounds for dismissal of any court action commenced with respect to this Agreement, except as specifically described above. You and Evergreen Factor each may exercise any lawful rights to seek provisional remedies or self-help, without waiving the right to arbitrate by doing so. This Agreement to Arbitrate will survive the termination of this Agreement, your fulfillment or default of your obligations under this Agreement, and/or your or our bankruptcy or insolvency (to the extent permitted by applicable law). With the exception of the Class Action Waiver (described next), if any other provision of this Agreement to Arbitrate is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it will not invalidate the remaining portions of this Agreement to Arbitrate.
10.2 Class Action Waiver. You and Evergreen Factor each agree that the arbitrator shall not consolidate more than one person’s claim and shall not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class action proceeding, and that any dispute resolution proceeding will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. YOU AND EVERGREEN FACTOR AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY SIMILAR PROCEEDING. If this Class Action Waiver provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this section shall be deemed null and void and neither of us will be entitled to arbitrate our dispute.
10.3 Your Opt-Out Rights. You have a right to reject this Agreement to Arbitrate, but you must exercise this right promptly as set forth herein. If you DO NOT wish to be bound by the Agreement to Arbitrate, then you must notify us in writing within thirty (30) days after the date you sign the Agreement. You must send your request by sending an email to the Evergreen Factor facility listed in my Membership Agreement or Guest Form, or by sending us a written statement of your intention not to be bound to Evergreen Factor facility address listed in your Membership Agreement or Guest Form. The request must include your full name, address, account number, and the statement “I reject the Arbitration Agreement contained in my Agreement.” If you exercise the right to reject arbitration, the other terms of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect as if you had not rejected arbitration.

You authorize us and our affiliates, agents, representatives, assigns and service providers (collectively, the “Messaging Parties”) to contact you using automatic telephone dialing systems, artificial or prerecorded voice message systems, text messaging systems, email, or any similar methods then in use and automated email systems in order to provide you with information about this Agreement and related benefits, including information about appointment reminders, payments, closures, and material changes to the Agreement. You authorize the Messaging Parties to make such contacts using any telephone numbers (including wireless, landline and VOIP numbers) or email addresses you supply to the Messaging Parties in connection with this Agreement or any other matter.

You further understand that, when you receive a telephone call, text message or email, you may incur a charge from the company that provides you with telecommunications, wireless and/or Internet services, and you agree that the Messaging Parties will have no liability for such charges. You expressly authorize the Messaging Parties to monitor and record your calls with the Messaging Parties. You agree that, unless you withdraw your consent as explained below, the authorizations you provide in this section will survive the termination of this Agreement.
