I hope this finds everyone healthy and happy. As of May 15th, both the governor and the medical board have given massage therapists permission to re-open their practices.
While my original intent was to return to work mid-June, I have family matters that require extreme caution on my end. As a result, I have suspended online scheduling until I have a better idea of when I will return. Though my timeline is now completely up in the air I still wanted to update you on what massage sessions will look like for the foreseeable future.
Due to the fact that we share space as independent businesses, myself, as well as my office mates, will be following the same protocol with all of our clients. To ensure everyone's safety we will implement the following as outlined by the State Medical Board:
1. I will be calling/texting you 24 hours before each appointment to ensure you are safe to come in based on the CDC guidelines. Same on the other end- If I don't feel well or, if anyone I've been in contact with doesn't feel well in the slightest- I will be calling you to reschedule. If you have been traveling internationally OR domestically please reschedule until 14 days after you've landed and experienced no symptoms
2. Please text me when you arrive and remain in your car until I text you to come up – maximizing social distancing
3. BEFORE entering, please wash hands thoroughly in the bathrooms across the hall
4. Please wear your mask and walk directly to your treatment room
5. I will be taking everyone’s temp (no-contact) when they arrive
6. Sign a health waiver at each appointment. (I am going to try to arrange this to be via email so you can do it while waiting to come up)
I understand that wearing a mask throughout your session may sound restrictive and that jumping through all these hoops for safety may seem less than relaxing. That being said, I genuinely appreciate your willingness to help ensure each of our continued health!
AGAIN PLEASE – should you feel ill the day you are scheduled – we will reschedule!
I don’t want to put any of us at risk. I will do the same!
Here is what I am personally doing to keep us safe:
1. Taking my temp twice a day (I've been doing this since March)
2. Wearing a fresh mask for each appointment
3. Changing clothing between clients
4. If you or I have broken skin, I will be wearing gloves
5. As always, washing my hands thoroughly before and after each client
Room/office changes:
1. Limited items in the spaces
2. I will have medical-grade air filtration in my treatment room
3. My coworkers and I will be fully disinfecting all common surfaces between each person. I will be, as usual, washing every sheet, undersheet, blanket, fleece cover, and wiping down oil bottles, etc.
4. Should you want to pay via check or cash there will be an envelope in the room that you may put your payment in. CC payments will still be processed contactless via the card you have on file in SoapVault.
*We are not allowed to hand out anything at this point. Please, should you need water, bring your own and keep it in your car*
I know this all feels like overkill but I will not take risks with your health! I deeply care about your well-being and miss seeing you. I also miss practicing massage.
If you have questions, would like a referral, or need to discuss anything, please feel free to contact me. I'm looking forward to when I see you again!
