DORA / New Executive Order Guidelines:

Executive Order for "Safer at Home" Personal Services

See Appendix D - Massage Therapy Personal Service Guidelines

See Appendix E - Limited Healthcare Setting / Massage performed in a Healthcare setting - acupuncturist, chiropractor, optometry, physical therapy offices

Colorado Department of Health & Environment - Safer at Home
Best Practices for ALL businesses, essential & non-essential, including personal services. Be sure to follow the best practices for worksites, employees and to protect customer sections and also the Appendix D or E guidelines.

Clarifications:
Eliminate any massage around the nose or mouth, unless over the mask
Gloves do not have to be worn during massage, but wear when you feel it's appropriate. If you don't wear gloves during massage, it's important to wash hands immediately after session. (similar to how I hope you already do)

Masks - Nose & mouth coverings are required for both therapist & customers for entire service - Yes even when client is face down. If unable to do so, DORA recommends then not providing services or changing service to accommodate, ie: supine for entire session. Recommended that if the therapist provides a mask for their client that it is disposable.

Appendix E Limited Healthcare Setting is for Massage Therapist who work in a healthcare facility, therefore they must follow the PPE requirement. Personal Service Massage is those sole practitioners and spa therapists.

Spas vs Massage - Spa environment must be 10 people or less in total (includes the clients and therapists). Also, any shared spaces in the spas are not allowed to be open at this time ie: steam rooms, saunas, soaking tubs/pools etc.

Sela Therapies COVID-19 Update

I want to take this time to say during this time of the Covid-19 outbreak, Sela Therapies will stay open for business. Massage therapy and touch during stressful times is of utmost importance for our wellbeing and also supportive for our emotional and immune systems. I care about each and every one of you and want to provide a healthy and safe environment now and always.

I have always been conscientious of a healthy environment and will continue to provide my services accordingly.

I will continue to diffuse and use essential oils in my office and will be supportive to your needs.

I will continue to wipe down common used areas.

I try to schedule appointments so that you do not need to spend time in the common waiting room. May I suggest that you arrive as close as possible to your appointment time and come directly into my office (I will be making a habit of keeping that door closed during these times, door will be locked if I’m in with a client) And I will do my best to keep appointments on schedule.

SOAP and Water- WASH HANDS Best remedy.
I will continue to provide hand towels for restroom use, as these will be washed daily with the sheets. (However, please note, if the basket is empty, I may keep the hand towel supply in my office for your personal use to take to restrooms.)

Hand sanitizer is always available.

If you have been traveling (primarily by plane) and if there are any concerns of being a Covid-19 carrier, let’s wait at least 10 days, for the wellness of others, to schedule your massage appointment.

During this time, and as always- If you are not feeling well, please reschedule your appointment. You will NEVER be charged for a missed appointment because you are sick.

Any future updates will be posted on my Facebook Sela Therapies page.

Thank you for your support.

Peace, Love and Good Health,
Christine

Please read this if you are concerned about essential oils around Pets. This is why I only use DoTerra Pure Essential oils. People-let's unplug those glade airfresheners or toxic household cleaners. I can share with you a better natural solutions for your home and personal care.

Here we go again... another click-bait blog by... author unknown because they didn’t even post their name... is being shared by people afraid that essential oils will harm their animals. Here’s a screenshot of the post for those of you that have been tagged in posts about it.

Let’s go over a few things here.

1. Yes, tea tree oil can be harmful to pets if you use WAY too much of it. Check out essentialoilvet.com/faq for more on that.

2. When using essential oils, only use tested as pure essential oils, which means... not from amazon, your local grocery store, or people you don’t know or trust or won’t/ can’t show you the test results. Many essential oils are adulterated with chemicals are are very toxic to pets to breathe in. Please message me if you want to know if your brand is safe to diffuse around pets.

3. Essential oils are often falsely blamed for toxicity when usually something else is going on. It’s an easy scapegoat.

4. When diffusing, only use 3-4 drops of oil in a water based diffuser on an intermittent setting.

5. Be sure your diffuser is in an area where your pet cannot knock it over.

6. Be sure to diffuse in an open area with the door open so your pet can leave the room if desired.

7. Follow the dilution guide for proper dilution with animals - you can get that free here: essentialoilvet.com/dilute

8. This particular article/ post is from February 2018, doesn’t have an author, and has zero references.

9. Please keep in mind these sorts of posts are promoted during the holidays and there is usually a pixel attached to whoever clicks on it, meaning the company who posted it can now retarget you for ads associated with their products (this particular post is from a company that sells dog products online like collars, kennels, leashes, tees, etc.)

10. If your pet is sensitive to an oil you are diffusing, stop the diffuser and get your pet some fresh air. Contact your veterinarian if you are concerned.

It is good to be careful using oils around animals, but let’s not get overly paranoid about it. Follow some common sense guidelines and rest assured you are actually helping them, not hurting them!
