New COVID-19 Health and Safety Standards:

Therapeutic Elements Center for Massage Therapy is committed to taking a leadership position in instituting and enhancing processes and protocols to ensure the health and safety of our members, guests, and employees. We have consulted with experts in occupational medicine, healthcare, infectious disease, and massage therapy to ensure we are taking the right measures to ensure safety without sacrificing your relaxation or our employee’s well-being.This much we are certain, offering massage services to our members and guests will be more critical now than at any other time in our history. COVID-19 isolation and uncertainty have impacted the collective mental health, and widespread depression is a genuine global concern. You know that massage therapy can help relieve tension in your muscles and connective tissues, increase blood flow, and promote relaxation. What you may not have known, however, is that massage therapy has been found to help relieve the physical symptoms associated with depression and anxiety, such as headache, insomnia, and widespread muscle pain.

 

Therapeutic Elements Center for Massage Therapy has always been committed to providing a clean and safe environment for you to relax. During the COVID-19 crisis, we reinforced those steps and added additional measures. Cleanliness will continue to be a focus moving forward.

– Thoroughly wiping down all commonly touched surfaces and tools with approved hospital-grade or EPA-registered disinfectants and cleaning and disinfecting bathrooms and common areas per CDC guidelines.
– A contact-lite transaction process including digital forms.
– Requiring all staff members to pass a Clinic Sanitation course and performing a practical assessment to ensure they follow the strict guidelines we enforce, including proper hand washing.
– All sheets are single-service use.
– Service Providers will wear a mask upon request.We use the industry’s best disinfectants on all hard surfaces throughout the clinic and specifically in each treatment room, for our basalt stones.After each use, our basalt hot stones are scrubbed with disinfecting detergent soap and sprayed with Simple Green  (an EPA registered, broad-spectrum antimicrobial disinfectant and deodorizer). The hot stone warming units are also thoroughly washed with detergent soap after each use.We change sheets and face covers after each client and wash them at high temperatures with a  product to minimize the transmission risk, as recommended by various public health authorities.We will also employ an aggressive cleaning schedule for the entire clinic. All high-touch areas will be thoroughly wiped down with hospital-grade disinfectants.Hand sanitizer will be available at our front counter and in every treatment room for use by both our customers and service providers.Therapeutic Elements Center for Massage Therapy has installed medical-grade air filtration systems.

 

We anticipate that a new emphasis on “disease control” will become standard practice in all industries.

We have already added a new touch-free process for customer agreements, member and guest payments, and forms. We are also working on our new app that will allow you to select upgrades on the spot, automatically check you in, and enable you to pay and handle gratuities.

We know that the world will change in many ways in the near future, but one thing that we are certain of is that we will be there for you with the cleanest and safest clinic. Our commitment remains for you to feel, move, and live when you need it most. Thank you for your trust; we look forward to seeing you soon.
