Before your session, please be prepared to answer the following Covid-19 screening questions:

• Have you had a new or worsening cough?
• Have you had a fever?
• Have you had shortness of breath?
• Have you had a new loss of taste or smell?
• Have you been in close contact with anyone with these symptoms or anyone who has been diagnosed with Covid-19 in the past 14 days?

If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, please reschedule at least 14 days after symptoms have resolved or at least 14 days after contact with a person with Covid-19 symptoms or a Covid-19 diagnosis. Cancellation fees will be waived. Let's keep one another safe in these pandemic times!

In the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, the close proximity of massage therapy is considered to be a medium risk. We will minimize these risks with sensible, science-based precautions. My practice space is well-ventilated with extra space heaters for warmth, a medical grade H13 HEPA air purifier in the room, as well as a HEPA air purifier in the entranceway.

A mask is mandatory inside the building in order to receive a session. Please do not wear neck gaiters or bandanas, as they have been shown to split water droplets, making them smaller, and increasing the possibility of Covid-19 transmission. As a client, you are expected to be practicing mask wearing, hand washing, and social distancing in your daily life.

This is a clothing-on bodywork practice. Please bring light clothing to change into (different from your street clothes), suitable for stretching and movement. Even in the colder months, we need windows cracked open for ventilation; please dress in layers for warmth and comfort. Please arrive recently showered and free of fragrances.

To reduce foot traffic with other practitioners at Earth Body Wellness Center East, enter into the courtyard through the gate closest to the building, and go into the covered patio door. Please remove shoes, and knock on the door to be screened before coming in.

In the midst of a historical, worldwide pandemic, let's do all we can to keep one another safe and reduce the possibilities of Covid-19 transmission! Stay lively, ya'll!

Personal Health Plan Billing: Before your session, my insurance biller needs to perform a benefits check, including verifying your co-pay or co-insurance, and to see if a pre-authorization from your doctor is required. You will be responsible for any denied claims. Please e-mail an image of the front and back of your insurance card and Date of Birth. You may also drop-off a copy at Earth Body Wellness Center East or mail a hard copy. It usually takes 2-3 business days to verify your benefits. E-mail to hamidlmt@gmail.com

Motor Vehicle Accident Billing: MVA's can be billed to insurance with an open PIP, claim number, and prescription with diagnosis codes from your doctor or chiropractor.

Cancellation Policy: Missing an appointment or cancellations 24 hours prior to your scheduled session are subject to a $45 fee, due before your next session. A same-day cancellation or no-show may void a gift certificate or pre-paid session. Abuse of the online calendar may lead to exclusion from online scheduling. Cancellation fees are waived for Covid-19 related reasons.
