Yes, I am open!

Horse by Northwest has re-opened for business, and I am scheduling sessions! For your safety and mine, I have some new protocols in place. You can find the full list of my updated Terms & Conditions on the contact page; I encourage you to take a look.

How I will be protecting you:

• I will wear a mask the entire time I am visiting your barn.
  
• For busier boarding barns, I will be providing my own halter (either nylon web or rope) and lead rope to minimize cross-contamination.
  
• I will be using hand sanitizer upon arrival, and washing my hands with soap and water between horses.
  
• Massage sessions will be performed in your horse's stall or paddock.
  
• I will be limiting the number of clients seen in a five-day span to minimize exposure.
  
• If I am experiencing symptoms of, have been exposed to, or suspect I have been exposed to SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), I will notify you immediately.

How you will be protecting others:

• If you prefer to be present during the session, you will be required to wear a mask over your mouth and nose while I am present, and try to remain at least 6 feet away. If you prefer not to wear a mask, you will be required to remain at least 10 feet away, and in a separate area from the session.
• I request that you ask others who may be present (friends, family, stall cleaners, trainers, etc) to wear a mask and/or remain at least 10 feet away while I am present.
• If you prefer to be present, I will send out a survey prior to your session. I request that you respond honestly, and within 12 hours of your session. All responses are confidential, and will be deleted after one month.
  
• If you have symptoms of, have been exposed to, or suspect you have been exposed to SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), you agree to notify me immediately.
  

I travel to a variety of barns, large and small. This increased exposure not only puts me at risk, but also you and anyone who may be caring for your horse. By practicing social distancing and wearing a mask, I am protecting you and your equine's health.

Additionally, please note that because I am limiting the number of facilities I will be visiting in a given week, scheduling may be delayed. I appreciate your patience as we work through this together.

Please do let me know if you have questions/concerns/comments prior to scheduling a session with me. I look forward to hearing from you so that I can provide support for you and your equine on your journey together.
