SCENT AND FRAGRANCE FREE PRACTICE
Please plan to arrive to your session as fragrant/scent free as possible.
I get ill from certain levels of exposure to scents/fragrances and do my best to limit those exposures. I am allergic to natural and chemical scents, including but not limited to:
•perfumes and cologne
•laundry detergent
•essential oils
•shampoo & conditioner

Things that can help you limit your scent/fragrances before your session:
•If you are going to shower the day of your appointment don't use scented soaps, shampoo/conditioner or body scrubs. •Don't put deodorant, lotions, essential oils or hair products on right before coming in. •If you've had your hair recently dyed or treated wear a cloth wrap to contain any scents. Let me know if you have questions! |

*For those who have MCS, MCAS or other environmental sensitivities / disabilities:
I wear only fragrances free body products, use scent free oil and lotions during your session and use only scent / fragrance free cleaning products. I use PureGreen24 (an EPA approved disinfectant to kill Covid-19) to disinfect massage table and chairs surfaces and alcohol to disinfect door nobs and other surfaces. I strive to have a scent and fragrance free practice and cannot guarantee 100% scent free as sometimes clients come in wearing scents and there may be scents in the building materials / carpets that I cannot control. We do have a Hepa air purifier in the space. Please reach out if you have any questions. I also want to honor that there are many healing, cultural, personal and access reasons that people use scents. Please reach out to talk about how to we can work together to navigate conflicting / different needs. Thank you! ~nik |
