Do I have to wear a mask during my treatment?
No. Masks are no longer required but are still encouraged, especially if you have not been vaccinated.
Will you, Lela, wear a mask during my treatment?
Yes. For the foreseeable future, I will continue to wear a mask out of an abundance of caution and also to allow my guests to feel more comfortable removing their masks if they choose to.
Are you, Lela, vaccinated?
Yes. I have been fully vaccinated since April 2021 and received my booster on November 17, 2021.
What else are you doing to keep me safe and help prevent the spread of COVID-19?
I continue to strictly adhere to all safety regulations and sanitation protocols provided by massage industry professional organizations, the CDC and state and local health and governing authorities. This goes beyond simply changing linens and blankets between each client and following mask and handwashing protocols; it also includes HEPA air purification and using EPA-certified disinfectants between each client on all surfaces that the therapist or client may have touched, including all doorknobs, bottles, bolsters, electronics, furniture, etc. This requires more time between each client, therefore scheduling protocols have also been adjusted to allow sufficient time for proper disinfection. In addition, I am prepared to stop practice immediately and follow current isolation and quarantine guidance if any clients or I, or anyone I've been in contact with, demonstrate COVID-19 symptoms or test positive, to verify that I am not contagious or a carrier.
What should I do if I feel sick or have tested positive, or have been exposed to someone who is sick or tested positive? Will I be charged a cancellation fee?
If you have, or you recently had, a fever, any respiratory or flu symptoms, sore throat, or shortness of breath, or if you've been in contact with anyone in the last 14 days who was diagnosed with COVID or has COVID-type symptoms, please do not come in for your treatment. You can reschedule or cancel your appointment without penalty. Please notify me as soon as possible via the contact info below.
