Update: December 10, 2020
As we continue to navigate the COVID situation in our community, we wanted to update you about the protocols we have in place to keep our staff and patients safe, as well as options for treatment as we continue to care for our patients.
We continue to follow all mask and social distancing protocols, as well as keeping the clinic thoroughly cleaned. As extra protection, we have also installed an “air scrubber” on our HVAC system.
For those who are high risk, or do not feel comfortable being in our gym with other patients, we do offer the option of being treated completely in our treatment rooms, with contact only being with our therapist staff.
For those who are not comfortable being seen in person, or are on quarantine, we do offer a Telehealth option where appropriate evaluation and treatment is completed through a virtual platform.
