Helix Massage Therapy

It's been a little while- how are you?
I am happy to announce that I am seeing established clients again on Wednesday mornings/early afternoons and on Saturdays. In September, I plan to resume seeing clients on Fridays and will begin accepting new clients again. To schedule or if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call/text at 206-310-9460, email me at [email protected]. (I plan to reopen the online booking option in late August.)

This is my plan for now. I'm staying tuned in to recommendations/guidelines from our state and local health departments and will adjust as needed.

To keep us all as safe as we can, I do have the following protocols in place:
-I'll ask you to complete an online COVID check list the day before your session.
-I am pressing pause on my late cancellation fee; if you have any concerns about possible exposure, cancel your session anytime. (Please call/text if it's less than four hours in advance of your session.)
-Please arrive on time (not early or late) for your session and leave extra belongings at home. I'll meet you at the front door.
-When you arrive, I'll have you use hand sanitizer or wash your hands upon entering, and we'll do a quick temperature check with a no touch thermometer.
-I am doing a thorough disinfecting of all high contact/touch surfaces in common areas and my treatment room throughout the day.
-I'll be working a reduced schedule to allow for additional time between clients for the space to be sanitized, and I'm keeping the windows open to increase air flow throughout the day.
-I'll be wearing a mask all the time (KN 95 and a cloth one over it- I change the cloth one between clients) and goggles when you are face up. I'll ask you to wear a clean mask when you are in the office (I can offer you one if you need it) including during treatment. I do have a new set up for the face cradle to allow you to remove your mask when you are lying face down.

I look forward to seeing you when the time is right.

I've been reading Dr. Gordon's recent book, Transformation, when I can. He offers some simple, direct useful techniques for working with stressful times and past traumas (the small daily challenges as well as the big, life altering ones). I learned about some upcoming online free seminars. He has one coming up on Friday that is available to stream anytime from 11am - 5pm PST.

From Dr. Gordon-
"The coronavirus pandemic makes us anxious about our bodies, hyper-vigilant for coughs, sniffles, and fatigue that may be harbingers of infection. Our third free webinar, “Befriending Your Body”, begins by acknowledging these concerns and proceeds to share a practical, flexible plan for using movement and exercise, as well as awareness, to decrease our anxiety, enhance our appreciation of our body's inherent healing capacities, and move us more confidently and happily forward as we encounter each day's activities and challenges."

Befriending Your Body - Free Online Workshop Join James S Gordon, MD of the Center for Mind-Body Medicine on Friday, April 17 where he will share a practical, flexible plan for using movement and exercise, as well as awareness, to decrease our anxiety, enhance our appreciation of our body's inherent healing capacities, and move us more confide...
