Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!

ONLINE BOOKING HAS RESUMED. Space remains limited, and an email with the Mandatory Pre screen for COVID-19 will be included in the confirmation email. It Must be completed to secure the appointment. For those requiring treatment that have not yet attended an appointment since changes in requirements/protocols have occurred, another email will follow. Read all in their entirety. Non Compliance=No appointment. Feel free to Contact me directly with any concerns, questions, or c...omments. www.christinermt.com [email protected] 613-921-3184 See more

Updated August 20, 2020 Just a few areas of necessary housekeeping reminders. Please arrive no earlier than 5 minutes before your scheduled appointment time. This allows the previous patient to have exited, and me, plenty of time to take care of all sanitation/infection control measures. When sent the Mandatory Covid-19 Screen it is imperative that it be completed on the day it is received. Ensure you read it each and every time, and answer accordingly. I must meet MOH (m...inistry of health) requirements, and timelines have been established as best practice for what we currently know to date. I am not accepting credit card payments at this time. Please use debit cards or email transfers. I will now also accept cash again.The cost of doing business has increased exponentially with the purchase of additional products, additional administrative hours, as well as the spacing between appointments decreasing hands on treatment hours. While I truly appreciate tip offers, I still have a, No Tipping Policy. I am still unable to accommodate any new patients at this time. All appointments are still being booked directly through me. I hope to have online booking available later this fall. I cannot book you several running appointments to use up benefits. I must have a treatment plan that encompasses the reason you require appointments/treatment. Thank you all, for being so wonderful. See more

Office is open. Contact for booking information. I am unable to accomodate new patients at this time. [email protected] 613-921-3184

I am STILL often guilty of this. Find something for YOU, and DO it.

Hello. Here is an update regarding the news yesterday. I have received communication from my Regulatory College, that a Gradual Restart of Services has been approved. This in itself does not indicate that it is business as usual, or just treating fewer patients in a day. There are a great many requirements that need to be met, not only before those clinic doors can open, but during and ongoing. I have historically been very accommodating and fluid with individual needs re...Continue reading

For anyone hearing on The News, that RMT’s are now able to work.. The proverbial cart was put before the horse, and more directives are still required, as to what opening entails.

Hello, Hoping everyone is having an opportunity to enjoy this great weather we are having. Thank you for all the messages and inquiries over the past few weeks. There is still no definitive date for me to reopen. Some directives have been drafted by The College of Massage Therapists of Ontario governing requirements/precautions upon a return to practice. I will update as they become actual mandate. I will begin the rescheduling/scheduling process as soon as I am able. This will be done on an individual contact (me contacting you) basis to start, before a general reopening of online appointment availability. Feel free to message/email me with questions any time.

Hello, I hope everyone is doing well. I have had quite a few messages, asking about re opening, booking appointments, and a few other things. I will provide information governing the area of resuming practice as I receive it. As far as rescheduling/booking of appointments go, the many who had scheduled appointments that had to be cancelled, will be offered times first, if still needed, when they eventually become a...vailable. I am certain a return to practice is going to look different than pre COVID 19. One of the things changing will be appointment duration availability, as well as the number of appointments per day that are available to allow some additional time between appointments. Initially scheduling will be offered in a meted manner. This is why there is currently no availability on my websites online booking feature. Some risk factor screening will also be conducted before appointments. More information about this will also be shared. Because the practice of massage therapy is to assist in the assessment, treatment, management, rehabilitation of soft tissue/joint pain/dysfunction, appointments will continue to be directed as such. If anyone has questions, please do not hesitate to contact me via DM, Email or text, or contact options through website. www.christinermt.com 613-921-3184. [email protected] See more

Worth the share.

Why worry about whether it’s going to rain? All you can do is bring an umbrella. #worryisfutile #reframeyourthoughts #stopthebraindrain

Everyday you awake is a NEW opportunity to GROW. One of my most favourite sayings is, If you do what you have always done, you will get what you have always got.
