Remaining (Safely) Open!

Last updated: June 11th, 2021

We are happy to announce that the Ministry of Health has confirmed that Osteopathic Manual Practitioners may resume their services as of today, Friday, June 11th 12:01am. This is good long-awaited news and we are pleased to share with you.

Based on the provincewide vaccination rate and continuing improvements in key public health and health system indicators, the Ontario government, in consultation with the Chief Medical Officer of Health, will move the province into Step One of its Roadmap to Reopen at 12:01 a.m. on Friday, June 11, 2021.

Currently, we are remaining open and our hours of operation remain unchanged.

We continue to do our part in slowing the spread of COVID-19 and keeping the health and safety of our patients and practitioners as the highest priority.

In addition to our increased health and safety measures, we have added a number of additional measures to supplement our sanitation regimen that you can find below.

• Steam cleaning floors with temperatures of 100°C – especially high traffic areas several times throughout the day.
• Increased frequency of disinfection of all high touch surfaces and floors
• Continued communication between practitioners and staff regarding maintaining a high level of care and attention to safety each day

We are working tirelessly to do our very best each day to adhere to the latest health safety guidelines provided by our regulatory bodies to be able to continue to provide you with safe care without compromising quality during this time.

• Mandatory Mask Policy for patients, visitors, practitioners and staff
• Screening all patients and practitioners for contact with and symptoms of COVID-19 prior to treatment
• Hand sanitizer available before entering and throughout the clinic
• Completion of Proper use of PPE and Sanitation Practices Certification for practitioners and staff
• Increased sanitation schedule of all high-touch surfaces
• Removal of all items that are unable to be properly sanitized
• Informational signage at entry and throughout the clinic
• Increased sanitation of all linens between patients using antibacterial rinse and highest heat possible
• Physical distance markers placed on floor
• Protective plastic shield at reception for the protection of reception and yourself
• Increased time between appointments to allow for complete and thorough sanitation between each patient

All our new policies and procedures meet or exceed the standards described by local and national regulatory bodies. We have implemented rotational sanitation procedures for all common surfaces, multiple times throughout the day. Treatment rooms are fully sanitized, and all linens/blankets etc are replaced, after each treatment.
