COVID-19 Safety
plus cold & flu safety 
& other policies
​

Updated Nov 2022

I hold your and my health & wellbeing in the highest regard. In addition to being fully vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19, I continue to implement a number of measures to reduce transmission risk of COVID-19, as well as colds and flu.

​

Preparing for your appointment: 

*Please reschedule your massage if you feel unwell at all (including with the common cold), are experiencing unusual symptoms with no clear explanation, are positive for COVID-19, or have been exposed to COVID-19 in the past 5 days*

 

Bodywork is not recommended when you are sick, as it can exacerbate symptoms, as well as spread illness to your LMT and clients coming in after you. 

​

While I appreciate as much advanced notice as possible, you will not be charged a late cancellation fee if you cancel due to illness. Missing your appointment without contacting me may result in witholding a refund or having to pay up front for future sessions. 

​​

When you arrive: 

A properly fitted mask is required for all clients upon entry to the building and during your massage. High quality masks such as an N95, KN95, or KF94 are highly recommended. 

​

Additional protocols I am implementing include: 

​

  • 30 minutes between clients for adequate sanitation and aeration. 

  • Cleaning and disinfecting surfaces with an EPA-approved non-toxic disinfectant.  

  • I will wear an N95 mask throughout your appointment. 

  • Two air purifiers with HEPA filters running throughout your appointment.

  • As always, maintain proper hand washing hygiene between clients

  • As always, I will reschedule your appointment if I am unwell. 

​

 

Additional policies at Iara Massage & Bodywork: 

​​

  • First-time clients are required to pre-pay for their appointments. 

  • For non-emergent rescheduling or cancellations not related to illness or COVID-precautions, please give 24hrs notice to avoid penalties. 

  • No-show's without contacting me will result in a full charge of the session or needing to pre-pay for future sessions.
