Windows are kept open when possible throughout the session to optimize ventilation.

Most Comfortable Table
--And Safest!
​​
-
Sessions are offered by appointment only--no walk-ins.
​​​
-
Appointments are scheduled no less than 30 minutes apart from one another. This enables us sufficient time for sanitizing and ensures that clients don’t “bump into” each other.
​
-
Sessions may be postponed in the event that a client does not pass the screening, is experiencing symptoms, or has recently been exposed. ​​
​​
-
In the interest of time and hygiene, contactless payments are available. You will find options to pay for your session in your appointment confirmation and reminder emails.

Scheduling Safely

​
-
First and foremost, we are asking that all clients, before they come into the office, take an honest assessment of their health. Please be certain you don't feel like you're coming down with anything and haven't been in contact with those who are ill. If so, please reschedule your visit. As per our "Sick Policy," we are happy to waive the last-minute cancellation fee.
​
-
We ask clients to complete a Session Check-in Questionnaire within 24 hours of their appointment, to screen clients for symptoms and recent exposure.​
​
-
At present, masking is optional. Please let us know in advance (you may make a note on your Session Check-in form) if you'd prefer we wear a mask during your session.
​​
Healthy Clients
-
We make sure that our office is in tip-top and sanitary shape for every appointment.
​​
-
Sanitizing equipment and supplies include disinfectants proven to kill 99.9% of viruses including SARS-COV-2 (Coronavirus); a HEPA air purifier with a UV-C light; and a vacuum cleaner with a UV-C light.
​
-
Our towel warmer also has a UV light.
Sanitization
-
If the therapist feels even the slightest tickle in her throat, or has possibly been exposed, she will inform the client right away and get tested before resuming sessions.
-
We wash our hands/forearms per CDC guidelines before and after each session, and use hand sanitizer as well. We'd appreciate if clients took a moment to do the same.
​
-
These days you will likely find your favorite massage therapist garbed in an N-95 mask covered to keep both client and therapist healthy and ready for a long future of massages.
