The following health and safety protocols for 2023 are designed to ensure the utmost care and cleanliness in our therapy rooms and the wider facility.

    Appointment Scheduling and Room Cleaning

    • Floor Cleaning: After each treatment, the floor will be thoroughly mopped and cleaned to maintain hygiene standards.

    Air Quality and Ventilation

    • Air Conditioning System: Our air conditioning systems are equipped with new, improved filters that help purify the air more effectively.
    • Regular Air Circulation: To ensure continuous air ventilation and a comfortable temperature, our staff will regularly switch the air conditioning between cool and hot modes.

    Personal Hygiene and Equipment Sanitization

    • Massage Oils: Every bottle of massage oil is wrapped in paper and cleaned with 90% spirit after each appointment.
    • Common Area Cleaning: The common areas of the Light Centre will undergo regular deep cleaning to maintain high standards of hygiene.

    • Temperature Checks: A wall-mounted temperature check device will be used for everyone upon arrival at the Light Centre.
    • Hand Sanitiser: Hand sanitiser will be provided at the reception for use by clients and staff.
