It is with mixed emotions that I announce that I am moving my practice to a new location (my home). I have loved my time working with Joe, Tom and Brianna. I am very grateful for all of their knowledge, help and support over the last 6 years and will miss them greatly.

To those clients that have booked ahead appointments, they will remain the same

I am taking a couple of weeks holidays and will be back up and running on June 19th, 2023.

Just a friendly reminder that the mask mandate will remain in affect in healthcare settings (yes this includes our clinic) until April 27th. We will continue to follow COVID-19 protocols to keep everyone as safe as possible. We truly appreciate your compliance over the last two years.

EDIT: we are back up and running!

There continues to be an internet outage in the area. While this does not affect our ability to provide treatment, it does impair our ability to take payment and schedule patients. We also have no way of answering calls. To mitigate the issue we can accept cash, etransfers, or take your credit card number to process and shred once we are up and running again. Email receipts will be provided.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Uh-oh, let the shenanigans begin!

Since it’s November, we’ve decided to have a little fun in the office and maybe scare some people in the process.

Dr. Kratky has challenged Dr. Reid to take place in growing a moustache for the Movember fundraising campaign which raises money towards prostate cancer research. Consider this an old versus young challenge. Perhaps Dr. Kratky isn’t aware that Dr. Reid grows hair at an incredible rate?

This will serve as the starting photos for each and we’ll be posting regular updates so you can see the progress. Winner will be the chiropractor who grows the ugliest or funniest looking moustache. There really are no rules. We’ll make them up as we go. Feel free to chime in on who you think will win, who is winning, or who you think will lost their significant other first over this.

This is simply to gain a laugh during crazy times. However if you do want to donate, Dr. Reid is raising money as part of the Kingston Fire & Rescue station 7 volunteers team at the link below.

Let the growing begin!

Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦

First of all I would like to thank all my valued clients for their patience and support over the last three months!

At this time our college, the CMTO, is not expecting RMTs to return to practice if they do not feel it is appropriate or safe to do so. The CMTO also encourages limiting the number of in-person visits by prioritizing clients with essential care needs. Treatment is considered essential when: the client's overall health or function would considerably decline if treatment were not provided (i.e. lead to hospitalization or other serious health consequences). Our first priority as Massage Therapists is to the health and safety of ourselves, our families, and our clients and to ensure that the benefits of treatment outweigh the risks. In my own personal practice, although there are many benefits to massage therapy treatments, most of my treatments are for wellness and/or maintenance and therefore are not an essential healthcare treatment at this time due to risks still present for COVID-19.

Our State of Emergency has also been extended in Ontario to June 19th with social distancing still in effect which I will be continuing to follow. I will update my clients further when I can foresee a potential date to begin reopening my own practice, but now is not that time. We have received direction on practices and procedure guidelines that will need to be put in place before I can open safely. These include, but are not limited to, the pre-screening of clients before every treatment, increased frequency of handwashing & cleaning practices, increased signage, documentation and record keeping of practices, the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as face masks for myself and clients and additional health and safety training.

Please remain patient as implementation of these guidelines and the obtaining of sufficient PPE due to shortages can be a lengthy process. As I have stated before the health and safety of myself, my family and all of my clients is my top priority. I will only return to practice when I feel it is safe to do so and will keep everyone posted.

Thank you again for all of your support during this time. I hope everyone remains safe and healthy.

Sincerely,

Marcia

Hope you all are staying safe and well! 🌻 I know the government has opened a few more businesses, unfortunately massage therapy is not one of them. So until further notice I must remain closed.

Happy Mother’s Day💐💐

Due to the latest updates of COVID-19, it has been recommended that all non-essential services be avoided.

I have decided to do my part in helping to flatten the curve. I will be closed until April 6th and will reassess the situation then. I will be in touch to cancel all appointments up to then.

Please stay safe.

This past weekend I was a busy bee learning some new techniques. Cannot wait to start implementing them!
