UPDATE regarding Back to Life and the COVID-19:
We understand that for many of our patients, therapy is essential to their recovery from injury or surgery or to their general physical health. For this reason, our door remains open and we are willing to treat.
Safety is our top priority. You should know that we are monitoring information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and have implemented all recommended enhanced cleaning and disinfecting measures to provide a safe environment for our staff and patients.
To that end, if you are feeling ill with flu or cold-like symptoms, we ask that you please reschedule until you are symptom-free for at least 72 hours.
For those patients who would feel more comfortable in a one-on-one setting in an otherwise closed office, I am offering a limited number of appointments next week.
Be well and thank you for your concern, John
