Coronavirus/Covid19 & Your Appointment with Teresa (**updated June 2022 )
Your safety and well-being is the most important thing when you come for a session. While the professional, caring and mindful level of your sessions won't change, you will notice that some practices, aimed at enhancing your safety and mine, will be in place.
While some restrictions/mandates may have been lifted in the province there are limited changes for your sessions.

Why?
We'll be less than 6 feet apart in an enclosed room during your sessions. I have immunocompromised clients (on chemotherapy, recent organ transplants, other comorbidities, etc) who are at higher risk if they are exposed to Covid, as well as clients with children under 5. I don't want to be infected with Covid and unknowingly pass it on to one of these clients as this virus is a serious threat to their health. That is why I am asking all clients to please respect Covid protocols. For those clients that are at greater risk.
Please be sure to contact me if anything isn't clear or if you have any questions or concerns. You can email me at handtohealth@gmail.com or phone (403)620-0561

The steps that I will take include:- I screen myself for symptoms daily and take Covid rapid tests regularly. If I have any symptoms your session will be postponed. To date the protocols have worked well as I have not contracted Covid.
- An air purifier with hepa filter will be operating in the room throughout the entire day. - For each client I will be wearing a KN95 or CAN99 mask before and throughout the session - I will be continuing increased space between clients of 30 minutes. During that time touchable surfaces are cleaned and disinfected and the air purifier turned higher. I am using Botanical Decon30 by Benefect and approved by Health Canada. -Oil for your sessions will be in an individualized container (I don't use one bottle for everyone). Before the next use the container is washed with hot soapy water. The foot lotion bottle and spinal touch foot board will be cleaned and disinfected between each client. - Pillows have been fitted with vinyl covers beneath the pillow cases, the table has a vinyl cover beneath the bottom sheet. Vinyl covers are cleaned and disinfected between each client. - I follow Infection Control protocols for washing my hands throughout the day and this includes before and after donning PPE, before and after your session, after removing used linens from the massage table, before putting clean linen on. |
What I'm asking of you in preparation for your session:** Yes, you must wear a mask. A mask that fits well over your mouth and nose, without gaping or gaps and has 3 layers. Please put your mask on prior to entering the clinic (if you don't have one then one will be provided. You may (if you wish to) slide your mask down while lying face down for your treatment, however I do ask that you slip it back up over your mouth and nose before turning over onto your side or back.
