Covid Policy

Effective Monday May 29, 2023, masking will be optional for clients, visitors, and therapists.  

Our clinic will remain a mask-friendly environment. Our clients and therapists more than welcome to continue to mask if they choose to do so. Anyone entering our sites wearing their own mask may continue to wear it, rather than switching to masks that we provide. However, for those who wish to mask upon arrival, we will continue to provide masks at the clinic entrance. Our therapists are happy to mask anytime if that is the client’s preference. 

We ask that everyone practise kindness and be respectful to those who choose to continue to mask or ask for extra space (physical distancing) when they are unmasked.

We would like to remind our clients, families and other visitors that infection prevention and control practices remain in place at this time to protect against the spread of illness including social distancing, enhanced cleaning and disinfection HEPA filters and enhanced ventilation whenever possible. 

We ask that you inform our receptionists if you are sick so you can reschedule or make your session virtual.
