Covid-19 Protocols

I redesigned my cleaning protocols and added extra precautions to prevent COVID-19 spreading.
I am fully vaccinated and immune (as of March 26, 2021). But I still:
  • I follow all CDC recommendations
  • I always wear a mask in the office 
  • I  wear a face shield in the office
  • All my clients wear a mask
  • All my clients are vaccinated
  • I don’t travel or participate in big gatherings.
  • I always wear my mask when running my errands.
Office Space
  • All linens are professionally laundered and sterilized
  • New Molekul air purifier is installed (PECO filter – captures and destroys viruses)
  • HVAC fan will now be always “on” during office hours with new static filter installed to kill viruses on contact
  • Essential oil blend will be diffused in the waiting room
  • The waiting room is closed and is available only for check-out
Clients

You cannot bring any adult or a child to your treatment

If you are fully vaccinated:

  • Please, inform me ASAP if you experiencing cold-like symptoms and don’t come to the office. Your appointment will be switched to a virtual session
  • Upon arrival, please, knock on the door and wait for the door to be unlocked
  • Wash your hands upon arrival

 At this point I cannot offer in-person sessions for not fully vaccinated clients. Please, send me a text message to 919-649-5308 to request a virtual session.
