With a clean fresh new look to go along with our extensive renovations all of which are designed to keep you safe and healthy, here's a little reminder not to forget about your wellbeing and health in the 2021. Andreas has spaces available. Book now online.

We want to tell you how much we have missed you over the past months. We are happy to announce that we will be gradually re-opening our doors to you over the next few weeks. We have taken many precautions and put new measures in place to ensure we can safely offer Massage Therapy. We will have many new standards and protocols you need to be aware of and comply with for us to safely be able to offer you Massage Therapy.

Hello all, As you may already know, on March 16th we closed our clinic to help flatten the curve and eliminate, as best we could, an avenue for the Coronavirus to spread. A few days later the Provincial Health Officer ordered that all Massage Therapy clinics close, and our College has since put out a notice to that same effect. It’s important that each of us does everything we can to flatten the curve and slow the spread of this virus. This includes taking seriously, socia...l distancing measures, and staying home when we can. The nature of massage therapy includes close one-on-one contact and is most often not critical care. While we had hoped we would be back to normal business by April 1st this does not look like it's going to happen. We are cancelling all appointments between now and the last day of April, at which time we will reassess based on current circumstances, PHO recommendations and notices from our College. I am wishing you all the very best of health as we get used to our new normals with physical distancing, self-isolating and/or working from home. We look forward to seeing you all on the other end of this. And there will be another side to this. If you have any questions or concerns at all, please do not hesitate to reach out by emailing us @ [email protected] Sincerely, Jana Asman Andreas Weaver.

We are continuing along with our renovations. We are still aiming for July 6th as our opening but we ask for your patience as there is still much to do. Looking forward to our return to helping.

Dear Patients, As we are sure you are aware Registered Massage Therapy has been included in the 2nd phase of opening here in our province. It’s exciting times, nervous times and brand new times. While RMT’s have been given the green light to resume practice it is with new and very stringent guidelines. Our College has given us our guidelines and our association has done so as well. Needless to say there is a lot of work to do. ... As we are a home based business we do not have the option of leaving a workplace behind and going home to a safe environment. As such, we are starting a renovation that is designed to achieve two goals. To keep our home as separate as possible from our work space and to ensure a clinic that is as safe as possible for you our patients . As such we will not be opening for some time. We are hoping for near the end of June. I know this may be disheartening for some of you and for that we apologize. However we have made this decision with safety being the overriding principle and it is safety as our overriding principle that will guide us through these times. When we reopen we will first be contacting those with cancelled appointments from the last few months. Our on line booking will remained closed until our backlog is cleared. We truly appreciate your patience and support through these difficult times and we can’t wait to see you all again. Until then please be kind, be calm and stay safe. Andreas and Jana.

Dear Patients, In light of the ever evolving situation around COVID 19 we are shutting the clinic effective today. While we have received no guidance on this decision from either the Registered Massage Therapist Association of BC or from the College of Massage Therapists if BC at this time we feel it the prudent thing to do at this time. Based on information and guidance from both Provincial and federal health officers we feel it is the right thing to do to stem the spread of COVID 19 in our community. We are making this decision in the best interest of you, our patients. We will re-assess in 2 weeks time. Sorry for any inconvenience. Stay healthy, Stay hopeful and stay a couple meters away from each other until we no longer have to.

Dear Patients, As per the Order given today March 21,2020 by the BC Provincial Health Officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry, and the College of Massage Therapist of BC we are closing indefinitely. While we have been closed since March 13th voluntarily, this Order makes it official. We will reopen when the Order has been lifted and our College has deemed it safe to return to work. At present we are unsure when that may be. Stay safe, stay home and stay healthy. Andre and Jana.
