In these days of a historic pandemic, let's be honest: massage is risky.  So you need to know that the space you're in has been thoroughly disinfected.  This is the cleaning protocol that I use before and after each massage to keep us as safe as possible.   The disinfectant used is on the CDC list of recommended disinfectants known to kill SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19.  We'll also be wearing masks, minimizing talking during the massage, and staying outside with optimal air flow to dissipate any virus that we might unknowingly be carrying.  

Hand-washing and sanitation will occur throughout this process:

After Massage:

• Unload apron onto patio table
