We are committed to the highest level of safety for our staff and clients. Our new COVID-19 safety policies and sanitation procedures are based on the most current CDC and New York State guidelines to bring you services that are even safer and, therefore, truly relaxing.

COVID-19 Safety Policies & Guidelines:
- Reschedule your appointment if you are feeling ill or have been exposed to COVID-19. Thank you for helping us keep our community as safe as possible. Your safety is always our first priority.
- Masks are required at all times. Clients and employees are required to wear a mask in the studio at all times, including during the treatment. Face massages are not currently offered.
- Please wait outside before your appointment. We’ve closed our common areas, including the waiting room, to reduce in-studio traffic. Your therapist will be available to buzz you in 5 minutes before your session.
- Enhanced sanitary measures include sanitizing stations in the treatment room and lobby area with at least 60% alcohol-based hand sanitizer. We’ve kept our studio squeaky clean while you were away and will continue to do so with increased regular studio sanitation schedules. We are using EPA-approved disinfectants and paying extra attention to high-touch surfaces. This includes enhanced cleaning in between sessions and routine deep cleaning.
- Giving treatment rooms space to breathe. Studio capacity is reduced by at least 50% and in-studio air purifiers with HEPA filters have been installed. Massage therapists alternate rooms for each client and appointments are staggered to reduce studio capacity.
- Touchless payment. Payment is taken at the time of booking online or over the phone to streamline and simplify your visit. Gratuities are now accepted via credit card or cash. While our studios have an ATM, unfortunately, we cannot exchange bills for gratuities at this time.
- Employees are monitoring their health. Therapists are equipped with personal protective equipment (PPE), cleaning, and disinfectant tools. Our staff has been instructed to check their temperature prior to working and stay at home if they feel sick or have been exposed to COVID-19.
FAQ:
What measures are employees taking to reduce the risk of virus exposure?
Employees are required to wear face masks at all times while working. Employees have also been instructed to take their temperature prior to working and to stay home from the studio if they’re feeling ill or have knowingly been exposed to COVID-19. Due to the nature of the profession, our massage therapists always maintain the highest level of cleanliness and personal sanitation. Our front desk staff is also working remotely to reduce studio capacity.
How can I prepare for my massage?
Thank you for asking! Similar to our employee protocol, all clients must wear face masks in our studio, to reschedule their appointments if they’re feeling ill or have knowingly been exposed to COVID-19, to confirm their temperature prior to their session, and to please shower before arriving for their appointment. Additionally, please bring your own water bottle to stay hydrated.
What additional CDC guidelines are you implementing in your studios?
We’ve staggered our client scheduling and request clients to wait outside for their appointments to avoid traffic in the waiting area. Therapists will be available to buzz you in 5 minutes prior to your appointment. We’ve also installed in-room “Mighty Conway” air purifiers with HEPA filters, ranked as the “Best Air Purifier for 2020” by the New York Times.
As professional licensed therapists, we’re dedicated to providing a completely safe and enjoyable experience for our clients. Our work is strictly therapeutic and non-sexual. Any sexual comments or advances will result in immediate termination of the session.
First visit? Please arrive a few minutes early to start the relaxation process. You can get comfortable, fill out a health-intake form, and discuss with your therapist what you’d like to focus on. Clients who are over 20 minutes late will be asked to reschedule their appointment, and will be charged a cancellation fee.
Please specify that you are pregnant when booking so we may schedule you with a Prenatal Certified Therapist. If you are scheduling an appointment for your partner or a friend who is expecting, you must notify us upon booking the reservation.
