Top priority more then ever is providing massage services as safe as possible for guests and the therapist. The past few months have made the importance of hygiene and safety clearer then ever and therefore we took the time to redefine the massage experience. Guidelines by the Arubian Government ( DVG ), CDC and WHO are adhered to and implemented. In addition, the ‘Aruba Health & Happiness Code’ certification is obtained to ensure a safe environment for employees and guests.
Open Air Location
Massage Therapy Aruba practice is located in an open-air gazebo offering ventilation to the maximum extend.
Cleaning procedures
Our cleaning process includes using approved disinfectants on all hard surfaces paying close attention to all high touch areas. Also, the appointments are set up to make sure there is a gab of 30 minutes minimum for cleaning and disinfecting purposes to welcome the next guest. Sheets, towels and cradles are washed at a temperature above 60 degrees to ensure their cleanliness.
Guideline for the Therapist:
1. Therapist will wear mask/facial covering during treatments as an enhanced safety measure.
2. Each day upon opening the therapist confirms there are no symptoms of Corona virus and a temperature check is done daily.
3. Therapist follows the CDC guidelines on handwashing or using hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol content before and after each treatment.
4. Therapist disinfects equipment before and after every use.
Guideline for the Guest:
Step 1: Guests should refrain from booking a treatment if they or a member of their household has a fever, other Corona Virus symptoms, or any communicable illness. This too counts for the therapist, when showing symptoms is not able to proceed with the service and needs to reschedule the appointment.
Step 2: A Health Check screening for the guests and the therapist before the appointment is mandatory as per the Arubian COVID-19 policy, from Government DVG ( Dienst Volksgezondheid ). Please note the following health screening questions that are required to be filled out during the booking process:
1. Do you have the following symptoms?
- Running nose ( nose cold )
- Coughing
- Shortness of breath
- Fever ( 38 Celsius / 104 Fahrenheit or more )
2. Does one of your family members, or roommates have one of the above symptoms at this moment?
3. Have you been tested positive for Corona virus in the last 7 days?
4. Has one of your family members, or roommates been tested positive for the Corona virus and have you been in contact with this person in the last 14 days while showing the above symptoms.
5. Are you in quarantine because you came in direct contact with someone that has been tested positive for the Corona virus.
Step 3: We prefer for your massage that you come alone to your appointment. When arriving at the practice please wait in the car for your appointment as the therapist will come to get you when ready for your treatment.
Step 4: All guests should wash hands thoroughly, prior to and after each treatment or use hand sanitizer.
Step 5: We ask you to wear a face mask when you turn to a face-up position during your treatment. Your therapist will provide you one during your massage.
