As many of you may have heard already, the Alberta government has extended the restrictions currently in place for another two weeks. Which means that the little list below is in effect until then! Folks will need referrals to receive massage therapy treatments until the 21st of January. If you already had an appointment booked I have emailed you with the details. If you haven’t booked yet, but are hoping to, don’t forget to send in your referral or prescription to me when you book your appointment.
If you have any questions, please give me a call (780 235 8050) or email me at katherine@composemassage.com!
