As we all navigate the Coronavirus (COVID-19) together, we, at Harmony in Wellness, are committed to following the guidelines set by both the CDC and AMTA (American Massage Therapy Association). Massage therapists in the state of Maryland are currently allowed to be open and accepting clients.
In order to follow, and implement, all of the recommended cleaning procedures, we will be allowing 1/2 hour between each appointment to properly disinfect. This includes all high-touch surfaces in the massage rooms and bathroom. There will also be hand washing before, during and after each treatment, and masks will be worn by the therapists at all times, and by everyone in the front reception area. However, recent announcements by both the governor and the AMTA, have stated that the state of emergency will be lifted in Maryland on July 1, 2021. This also lifts the mask mandate for health care settings (which massage has been included in during the pandemic). We ask everyone to use their best judgement, and do what is best for them to feel comfortable in our space. Hand sanitizer will still be available in all rooms of the massage studio.
There are only two therapists working in this space, in their own room. We have small air purifiers in each treatment room that purify the air, absorb dust particles, pet hair and pollen. They are also good for removing odor and killing toxic and harmful carcinogenic bacteria. We are both fully vaccinated, and now boosted as of December 2021.
We ask that if you are feeling sick in any way, or have a fever, that you will reschedule your appointment. We will update procedures and protocols as time goes by, and more information is given.
Everyone's health is our top priority, and we look forward to working within the community and providing a safe, relaxing environment. Our front area is now open for you to sit in, if you should arrive early for your appointment. Baltimore County lifted the mask mandate for indoors as of February 1, 2022. We highly recommend you wear a mask in the reception area. As always, please be courteous of other people's space.
We appreciate everyone that has cancelled their appointment due to illness or exposure. If we all continue to work together, we can all continue to work on our wellness!
If you have any additional questions, please send us an email and we will be happy to respond!
Thank you!
Be Well,
Heather & Marlene
