How we are helping prevent the spread of COVID-19:
In addition to the standard precautions we take daily to prevent the transmission of communicable disease, we have implemented additional measures to maintain a safe and clean environment.
Our standard and additional measures are listed below:
• Therapists “foam in/foam out” or wash their hands before and after all patient contact.
• Linens are changed between each patient contact and bleached daily
• Porous surfaces including doorknobs and bathroom fixtures are cleaned twice daily with bactericidal and virucidal cleanser.
• Modalities and therapist used tools (such as the laser aperture, Theragun, graston tools, massage cups, mobilization tools) are cleaned after each patient contact with 70% isopropyl alcohol
• Exercise equipment will be cleaned with alcohol-based cleanser between each patient contact
• Patients will be asked to wash their hands or use hand sanitizer before using exercise equipment
• Same day cancellation fees will be waived in the event of patient illness or for patients needing to care for a sick family member
• Patients and Therapists are to wear masks at all times when inside the clinic. If you do not have access to a mask one will be provided.
