Reopening June 1st with new safety protocol
​
We're very excited to announce our Re-Opening for June 1st, 2020. Following Dr. Henry's Phase 2 announcement our governing associations have been working tirelessly with the BC Public Health Office and WorkSafe BC to develop and approve appropriate guidelines and a safe plan for us to return back to the clinic.
As expected things will look and feel a little different around the clinic and in preparation for your session. Our Team has been working very hard to ensure that we have sourced CDC approved supplies/materials and planned effectively for your safe return to your treatments.
The following information breakdown will summarize what has changed around the clinic and prepare you for your next session.
Physical Distancing
Staggered appointments to reduce clinic traffic and encourage physical distancing of 2 meters.
If you arrive before the time of your appointment, please wait outside or in your car until your appointment time, as there is limited use of the waiting area. Please arrive unaccompanied, unless you are accompanying a minor.
Hand Washing
Practitioners will wash their hands upon treatment room entry and departure with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
Alcohol-based hand sanitizer is available for patients in the waiting area and should be used upon arrival and prior to entering the treatment room.
Mask Wearing & PPE
Patients MUST bring and wear their own cloth or paper/disposable (surgical) mask. We have a very limited amount of surgical masks that we can offer to patients who forgot their mask.
Practitioners will also be wearing a mask and/ or face shield during your session.
Strict Cleaning Policy
Frequently cleaned & disinfected common areas and high touch surfaces with approved grade disinfectant.
The treatment room and beds will be thoroughly cleaned & disinfected between each patient. Linens will be changed with each patient.

Preparing for Your Session
​
-
Please use the washroom prior to leaving your home
-
Electronic forms of payment is encouraged
-

Pre-Screening
Pre-screening will be done by you and your Practitioner prior to your appointment and again at the time of your appointment. Check your email to fill out the mandatory Covid19 screening form sent to you by Jane App.
If you have any cold-like symptoms and/or do not meet the screening criteria, you will be asked to kindly reschedule your appointment.
​
BC Covid Self Assessment tool
If you are high risk or for whatever reason do not feel comfortable attending the clinic, our Practitioners will continue to offer virtual TeleHealth sessions and can be booked directly through our online booking system.
A virtual appointment is a one on one online session between you and your practitioner from the comfort of your own home. You can expect the same level of expert care as you would in a traditional in-person session. We are offering appointments for Naturopathy, Registered Clinical Counselling, and Kinesiology at this time. Below are some important details about this new service.
Virtual Appointments
Virtual appointments allow you and your practitioner to connect virtually via video conferencing to receive counselling, naturopathic support, and kinesiology when a traditional in-person visit is not possible. The current clinic closure due to social distancing is one example of this, but often there are times when a client just cannot logistically get to the clinic. This is where the option of having virtual appointments shine.
