Dear Patients,
The BC government has listed the return to work for Phase 2 businesses starting May 19th, 2020 as a part of BC's Restart Plan. However, the College of Massage Therapists of British Columbia is in the process of having draft protocols that align with public health and safety guidelines reviewed by BC's Provincial Health Officer. Until these protocols have been approved we will not proceed with any massage therapy appointments for now. I apologize for any inconveniences this may cause at this time. As this will likely be a week-to-week process, you may receive an appointment cancellation notification via email only a few days prior to your expected appointment. Please check your emails for any changes to your appointments that might occur.
In preparation for future appointments, I would like to request that all patients wear a mask or face covering before entering the clinic and during the appointment. Patients will be contacted 24 to 48 hours before their scheduled appointment time and asked COVID-19 screening questions. Patients will not been seen if they are sick or experiencing flu-like symptoms including fevers, shortness of breath, and/or coughing, or have recently returned to BC from international travel in the last 14 days before their appointment.
Please be aware that there is no receptionist on site. If the front door is locked then it means I am in a treatment session with another patient. Please wait patiently outside the door or in your car. I will come to greet you when I become available and it is your appointment time. Upon entering the clinic, I will direct all patients to wash their hands with soap and water before we proceed with the appointment.
Your health (and ours) is of utmost priority, and by working together we can protect each other. We urge everyone to continue practicing safe social distancing habits and stay healthy. If you are experiencing any cold or flu-like symptoms please reschedule your appointment, either online through the Sapperton Massage Therapy website or by phone at 778-881-4730.
Best regards,
Cecilia
