Oh, need a massage and can't get one because of the 2nd round of quarantine in CA (July 13,2020 Monday after 2:00 pm)? No worries. Most of the reasons you get a massage are approved reasons to have your flex spending or health savings account pay for massage. If you need it, as an essential function to maintain your health condition such as an autoimmune disorder, spinal injuries, injuries of any sort that give you discomfort, for improved sleep, to help you handle stress by calming your nervous system, to get rid or ease the aches of stress on your body from over use such as working out, on your feet all day, sitting all day, etc. Even having TMJ, are reasons you should seek out a medical doctor to write you a prescription for massage therapy. You can have your doctor or a nurse practitioner write you the note, but it has to be on their letter head, signed by them, and dated for how long you will be needing massage therapy to manage your health condition. Even a psychologist can prescribe massage for you to manage your anxiety, ptsd, etc. It is an alternative medicine. You can have a chiropractor write the note too. While your at the chiropractor's office and can't get fit into a massage appointment, get the note, and forward it to us at janis@themassagenegotiator.com. Because we are in a quarantine, our massage therapists will be able to massage you if it is essential, you do not have a temperature, haven't had a diagnosis of COVID-19 in the last few weeks, don't show signs of COVID-19, and we are able to disinfect our supplies, table, and wear a face covering and/or shield/goggles to prevent any possibility of transmission of the communicable disease if you are asymptomatic. Also, we might need to have you get a massage outside which requires sunscreen, a canopy, and possibly bug spray in some instances. As, well as covering up over a bikini or undergarments to as to not be exposed ever.
Also, call any wellness center with a chiropractor and/or physical therapist and see if they have massage therapists, or look up a chiropractor to see if they have massage therapists if you are in dire need of a massage. We all know the side effects of having things backed up, leading to additional health conditions to manage. So, we are working with you and your healthcare professional to help you stay well and live free from the stress and aches that not having a regular massage causes people just like you.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Janis
