Covid Safe Massage is For Everyone!

Clinic Sanitation

 This practice focuses on Universal Precautions and Best Practices in regards to clinical hygiene.
 

Our approach to mitigate the risk of COVID & other emerging pathogens includes ASHRAE air filtration, a fan, far UVC, a visible C02 monitor, and the use of disinfectants between sessions. Please note that the space does not have a window, but we lower C02 levels before beginning your session. Because of this, your session may start later than intended as the ground C02 raises levels in the basement, even if no one has been there for 1 or 2 days. Rest assured that that ASHRAE level air filtration significantly reduces the risk of infection from airborne disease and is part of a layered approach of disease control implemented by me as both an everyday person and as a professional.

Sessions are spaced out 30-45 minutes to ensure proper ventilation and cleaning/disinfecting, as well as to allow for a potentially late start time if the ground C02 in the basement was high on the first person's arrival. We see a maximum of 2 people per day only. 
 

All linens are washed with a safe effective disinfectant & stain remover, along with unscented detergent. Linens are of course changed between every person, this includes blankets and towels.

My Personal Measures 

​

1. I will cancel my appointments & reschedule them if I am exposed to COVID-19 or have any symptoms of other illness. 

​

2. I wear the highest grade masks available to me, this includes NIOSH Certified N95s and P100 Elastomer Respirators. 

3. I am committed to providing Quality Service for those with disabilities and who may be immunocompromised. I will always answer my safety practices when asked truthfully and without hesitation.  I am firm in my commitment to Clean Air and Best Practices in clinical hygiene and am doing the absolute best I can within what is accessible to me as a Provider and as a person when I am off work.
 

Expectations of Clients/Patients
It is your responsibility to call to cancel your appointment if you have any symptoms 48 hours or more before the appointment, if able. Emergencies will be taken into account when considering to waive the late cancel fee. It is your responsibility to make sure you are getting emails about your appointments, place them in your calendar, and to communicate any questions or concerns.

Before Arrival: 
You are asked to shower and change clothes if able to. Please check your skin for any new lesions, bumps, sores, rash, or itchy spots.
 

On Arrival: You are asked to use hand sanitizer or wash your hands before treatment begins and you will be provided an N95 if your mask is loose-fitting, or less than the quality of a KN95/KF94. Additional N95s can be purchased from me for $5 that you can use for future sessions. Please plan accordingly. 

During Session:  Please keep y our mask on and over your nose at all times. There are other ways we can approach the session if laying face down with a mask on is uncomfortable to you.

If you are receiving Intra-Oral:, a COVID-19 test will be given before the appointment begins. You may take a test yourself the night before, or the day of. You may be asked to test again if the test you use is known to be inaccurate. If you use one of my tests, it costs an additional $5.
