Minimizing number of sessions
We have made the decision to remove the 10:15am session and the 3:00pm session of our student clinic, this will give our student therapists more time in between clients to thoroughly wipe down massage tables, replace all towels and table covers, and wash and sanitise their hands prior to treating their next client. Hygiene and cleanliness has always been a priority at our student massage clinic and we will continue to implement these procedures.
Social Distancing
Please ensure you continue to adhere to social distancing restrictions, where possible, during your time at our student massage clinic. Our waiting area will be set up appropriately to suit these measures. When waiting to speak to the front desk or while completing a form we ask that you remain at a 1.5m distance from other clients. Rooms will be set up appropriately to adhere to these measures. We also ask that you sanitise your hands as soon as you arrive.
Additional COVID Screening Form
Clients must complete a compulsory Covid Screening Form upon arrival. Please allow time to complete this form. We recommend arriving at least 10-15 minutes prior to the start of your session, this will give you time to sanitise your hands, sign in at the front desk and complete this form.
