DURING COVID....

Yes! I am open! And I'm vaccinated (and boostered)!

However, I am experiencing much higher than usual traffic and have few if any available openings in the next few weeks.

Yes, I can take limited new clients (with a referral, see Preparedness Plan for any additional restrictions). However, I am not taking on long-term clients at this time, only those needing help with a specific therapeutic goal that can be achieved in 2-8 sessions, and who don't need to get in right away.

A link to my "Preparedness Plan" is HERE; this contains details for most of the policies and procedures related to infection control and is updated regularly. To see a short video and "tour" of my room and some of the accommodations, click HERE (note: as restrictions loosen, this video may not reflect current practices)

You are required to wear a well-fitting and multilayered mask (Ear loops work best for massage. No thin fabrics, mesh, gaiters, vents or knit/t-shirt fabrics) and bring your own water. Some clients may be asked to provide a negative Rapid Covid Test before their session (see Preparedness Plan). Client face shields (to wear over masks) will be provided if requested in advance.  There will be a brief screening process (including touch-free temperature taking) before your session.  My COVID consent form can be seen HERE. Please note that, since I'm in a clinical setting with multiple high-risk patients, my protocols may need to stay in place longer than other massage offices.

 All possible precautions will be taken to ensure your (and my) safety. This is because ASYMPTOMATIC CARRIERS ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO PREDICT. Therefore, we need to act/prepare like we're all potentially asymptomatic carriers (me included).

Also, please help yourself to this new self-help resource that I've created (see link below). It is a "work in progress" but has a lot of good information already that could be helpful to you. Please feel free to share this link with anyone you think would benefit from the knowledge.

Please keep all the care providers who are on the front lines of this pandemic in your thoughts and prayers; they still REALLY need it. Please know I am deeply grateful to you for your continued support and thank you for maintaining that support as the world works to stem the tide of this virus.

My community of massage therapists and I will  "do what we can to continue to be a beacon of humanity and compassion mobilizing our hearts and minds as we return to the important work we do with our (always thoroughly washed) hands." (~Healwell)

 Stay well! There's light at the end of the COVID tunnel....
