As of June 1st, the office is re-open and accepting new clients.
We have taken reasonable precautions to make the office safe for people to be here. Our two primary steps have been disinfection and reduced interpersonal contact.
The neurofeedback equipment has always been cleaned between clients, and we are now disinfecting surfaces that people might touch, such as chairs, faucets, and door handles. We have also installed three air purifiers to capture airborne droplets that may contain viruses. We ask that you wash your hands upon entering the office and not to come at all if you feel unwell.
Reducing contact with others in the office has required bigger changes, and the result is that the office will be quiet and empty when you arrive. We are limiting the number of people in the office to one trainee and one additional person, whom we ask to arrive no more than five minutes before appointment time. In addition, my colleagues continue to work from home doing tele-health, so they and their clients are not coming and going.
While here, social distancing can occur. Neurofeedback involves close contact to place and remove sensors, but just for a few minutes.
Finally, I have increased spacing between clients to give the air purifiers time to fully cycle the air in the room and to improve social distancing. This means that my overall number of appointment slots is reduced, but right now, I do still have room for new people.
If you have been considering doing neurofeedback, now is a low-key time to try it. Don’t hesitate to reach out.
