COVID-19 Policy

At Body Mechanics, in order to provide the utmost protection to our patients & community, we utilize a 100% staff vaccination policy and recommend universal masking . Staff & Patients are asked to reschedule and quarantine if they are experiencing COVID19 symptoms, received a positive test result or upon any possible exposure. We follow data from the NYC Dept. of Health and CDC guidelines to develop our clinic policies. The clinic utilizes central HEPA filtration and additional public area air purification. Each treatment room and pod has its own standalone air purification device. All treatment room and public touch surfaces are disinfected between patients. Masks, hand sanitizer and temperature checks are freely provided to all guests upon entry to our facility.
