How Shipping Works
Each product page has a tab for Shipping, and information regarding cost and options are outlined per product. International shipping is an estimate, and when you email us your exact address, we will reply with the exact cost.
While we do our best to get your packages out in a quick and efficient manner, we cannot guarantee the date and/or time of delivery due to the possibility of unforeseen circumstances. Any delivery dates provided by your UPS tracking email are estimates only. Packages come with insurance and require a signature to ensure the safety of your order.
Within the US, you have the option to ship via ground which takes about 7 – 10 business days. If you choose to expedite your order, it will have first priority in order processing and it will take as little as two and up to five days (but usually it arrives in 2-3 days.)
Our shipping carrier(s) usually do not ship on weekends or local holidays (even for expedited shipping), so the actual delivery date may differ from the estimated transit time. Certain shipments may be eligible for Saturday delivery depending on various factors. Please contact the shipping carrier for more information regarding your specific shipment.
Because of the high value of our products, your order may be delayed if the shipping address is different from the billing address. This additional processing time is used to help ensure the security of your credit card information.
Most items are shipped individually. These items include, but are not limited to: Biomat, Orgone Biomat, Bio-belt, BioAcoustic Mat, Pillow, Alkal-Life 7000sL, Quantum Energy Pad, BioAcoustic Mat, Aroma Stand.
*We do not ship to APO/FPO/PO Box addresses.
*We do not ship using third party accounts.
*We do not ship to freight forwarding companies and most private mailing service locations.
Occasionally, we must alter our shipping schedule due to holidays and/or unforeseen causes.
