Sliding Scale
Since I began working as a healing practitioner I have always wanted to offer my services at a sliding scale. Sliding scale is important to me as a practitioner to allow for clients to choose what payment is most right for them due to their current circumstances. Sliding Scale Payment Structures work completely on the honor system and only work well when the community who receive the offering is honest with their payment. I offer this to our Melipona community fully trusting that my clients will choose prices that work for them and reflect their true current circumstance remembering that this also pours into my livelihood to continue to offer for community!
***Sliding Scale Structure Payment Goes into Effect for Melipona on June 1st, 2026***
***Folx with packages do not apply to the slding scale shift in fee and all packages will continue as is. You will have the option to add on an additional donation at the time of paying for your package to add to the pay it forward community fund if you choose to.***
