Worried about massage and covid? Masking is encouraged and accepted.

Should You Worry About Getting Covid During Your Session?

While COVID-19 remains a concern, mask mandates have eased and many people are vaccinated and boosted. Some may even feel a sense of immunity after contracting the virus. However, this doesn’t eliminate the risk entirely, especially for vulnerable individuals. As a result, some people continue to wear masks and may feel hesitant to engage in close-contact activities like massage therapy.

Here at The Wellness Hub NYC, we understand your worries. However, we want to assure you that by following established protocols, you can enjoy a safe and relaxing massage experience.

Safety First: Our Commitment to Hygiene

We prioritize the safety of both our therapists and clients. Here are the protocols we adhere to:

• Vaccinated Therapists and Mask-Wearing Throughout: All our massage therapists are fully vaccinated and wear masks for the entire duration of your session if that is something you feel strongly about.

• Client Mask-Wearing During the Session: If a client wants to wear a mask during the session, it is not a problem at all.

• Handwashing Before and After: Both therapists and clients are required to wash their hands thoroughly with soap and water before and after each massage session.

• Illness Policy: If a therapist or client experiences any signs of illness, including fever, cough, or respiratory issues, the session will be rescheduled to ensure everyone’s safety.

Protecting Your Wellness Through Massage 

By following these protocols, we significantly reduce the risk of transmission of Covid or any other illness during a massage session. In fact, there’s no evidence to suggest that massage therapy itself increases the risk of contracting COVID-19.

Benefits of Massage During Uncertain Times

Massage therapy can provide a wealth of benefits during these stressful times. Here’s how:

• Stress Reduction: Massage can alleviate anxiety and muscle tension, promoting relaxation and improving your overall well-being.
• Pain Management: Massage can help ease muscle aches and pains, leaving you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
• Improved Immunity: Studies suggest that massage therapy can boost the immune system, potentially increasing your body’s ability to fight off illness.
