Possible Future Opening Update

UPDATE: Stage 3 will begin June 12th in California but massage is not yet included. We are hoping by the end of the month! In the meantime, we are taking every care to be mindful of the safety and health of our customers and our staff.

Here are pieces from a letter I sent out to our staff today with an update of our future opening.

Hello everyone, 

I hope this email finds you all healthy and safe. I've been asked if/when I plan on opening the office again and wanted to give you all an update. As we all know this pandemic has been a day-by-day rollercoaster of emotions, rules, and information, which makes it hard to give any specific dates of re-opening. I do NOT plan on closing down permanently. I plan on making it work and bouncing back from this. In the meantime, I'm trying to learn more about our new online scheduling software, our phone service and other business features to improve Truckee Massage when we return to work.  

As of now, the national stay-in-place order has been extended until April 30th and my insurance company also recommends following government suggestions. This means (I think) that May 1st could possibly be the soonest to re-open a non-essential business? However, if that date gets pushed later again, then so does our re-opening date. I feel practicing our "do no harm" policy as massage therapists and respecting the current public concerns regarding COVID-19 is the most professional and ethical thing to do at this time.

I will continue to stay up to date with the local and federal regulations being implemented on non-essential businesses. If you guys find any information, please pass it along as I'm happy to research other sources and opinions and don't want to miss anything. 

Please stay in touch with questions or concerns. This has been a very challenging and eye-opening process to navigate through and I will continue to make the best choices I can. 

Thank you for your understanding, 

Kendra
