Our COVID-19 Hygiene Protocol

Seize the Day is committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of our Customers and Team Members.  In response to the COVID-19, we have enhanced our hygiene protocol.  We remain dedicated to providing safe, professional, and effective stress-reducing & revitalizing chair massage.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

When providing chair massage at the Car Wash, the following hygiene policies are in effect:

1. As the mask-mandates have eased, we are not requiring any people/customers/participants on the premises of the Barton Springs Car Wash to wear protective face masks, and
2. Face masks or fabric face coverings are optional for our massage therapists, and
3. As per Texas Minimum Standard Heath Protocols, customers, if wearing face masks, may remove their face-coverings while their face is in the face-cradle of the massage chair, and, then put their face-covering back on when they sit up in the chair (lifting their head out of the face-cradle), and
4. We require each Customer (if their hands will be massaged) to disinfect their hands before their massage (hand-sanitizer provided).
5. Between every massage, the massage therapist
        -Disinfects ALL the pads of the chair as well as any applicable parts of the frame with 70% alcohol.
        -Disinfect any applicable counter-tops of the massage area.
        -Disinfects their arms & hands (from their elbows to their finger tips)
        -Places a clean/fresh face-cradle cover on the face pad.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
As per CDC, we ask that NO participants sign up for Chair Massage if they have had any flu-like or COVID-19 symptoms within 5 days before receiving a massage.  We verbally screen for this.

• We have our team members stay home if they are feeling ill or have exhibited any cold, flu-like or COVID-19 symptoms within the past 5 days.
• Face masks or fabric face coverings are optional for our massage therapists.
• Our hand-sanitizer is available for use by our customers at the sign-up counter and at the pay-counter. 
  BTW, we have plenty of disinfected ink pens available to sign up for massage and sign credit card receipts (if applicable).
• To reiterate; between every massage, we
  • Disinfect all the pads of the chair and any applicable parts of the frame with 70% alcohol.
  • Disinfect any applicable counter-tops of the massage area.
• And, before starting each massage, we
  • Disinfect our arms & hands (from our elbows to our fingertips)
  • Put a clean/fresh face-cradle cover on the massage chair.

• When doing each chair massage, we use ONLY our elbows, forearms, and hands.  We do not contact the participants’ bodies with any other parts of our body.
• We have discontinued the use of the rolling tools near the end of the massages.   We do not have time nor the means to adequately dis-infect them between sessions.

We remain committed to providing safe and professional chair massage to all our Customers.  The above protocols may change as more information about COVID-19 becomes available.
