County Massage Reopening Updates
The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) recently released the COVID-19 Industry Guidance: Expanded Personal Care Services (Guidance) for counties with attestations, which includes personal care that requires touching a client. CDPH's Guidance applies to massage therapy (in non-healthcare settings) and is "intended to support a safe, clean environment for workers and customers."
CDPH's Guidance is instructive on how massage providers should operate during the COVID-19 pandemic, to try to reduce the risk of transmission. Local health officials get to decide when massage therapy can resume operations following their review of local epidemiological data including cases per 100,000 population, rate of test positivity, and local preparedness to support a health care surge, vulnerable populations, contact tracing and testing.
While you MUST follow the health and safety guidance provided by the State and your local jurisdiction, we also urge you to consider following even stricter protocols during this unprecedented time, some of which may be found in the Guidelines for Practice with COVID-19 Considerations provided by the Federation of State Massage Therapy Boards (FSMTB). Please note that these guidelines were created by FSMTB, not CAMTC, and you are not required to comply with them; they are merely provided here as an additional resource.
