As you know by now, COVID-19 is wreaking havoc across the globe. I'm writing to reinforce guidelines to remain healthy and minimize the spread of any contagious disease so all of us can return to our norms.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
- WASH YOUR HANDS often. Dirty hands are the #1 way germs are spread. Use soap and warm water for 20 seconds or hand sanitizer.
- DON'T TOUCH YOUR FACE with dirty hands.
- COVER YOUR MOUTH when you cough or sneeze then wash your hands.
- AVOID PUBLIC PLACES when ill with flu-like symptoms.
- SOCIAL DISTANCING: the CDC recommends a 6-foot separation from others.
- SEE A DOCTOR if you have any symptoms.
MASSAGE GUIDELINES
- DO NOT get a massage if you have the flu, a fever, cold or cough; reschedule as soon as possible.
- DO NOT get a massage if you have consumed alcohol or used drugs within 8 hours of your appointment.
- DO NOT get a massage if you have taken pain medication within 2 hours of your appointment.
Also, Massage Therapists should always
- wash their hands before and after giving a massage
- sanitize equipment
- use clean linens
Be Well!
