Licensed Massage Therapists abide by a strict Code of Ethics and professionalism. We are as sanitary as doctor's office. We often have clients with medical prescriptions from doctors. We can relieve migraine and other types of headaches, decrease chronic pain to keep people off of Opioids, reduce anxiety, stress and tension, decrease blood pressure, help clients keep pain levels down so they can perform active daily tasks as well as so much more. Most of us are a "one man shop" so we only have on client at a time and sanitize everything in between each person. Please let us reopen to help and heal folks so we can all get thru this horrible time with a little less stress and anxiety!! 🇺🇸

Because health is achieved through fitness and actually increases immunity.

Survival of Hair Salons, Stylists, Owners and independent beauty professionals is at risk. We are facing a grave financial hardship. Clients are also having to resort to outside means for grooming, hair cut and color maintenance. This will also prevent a rush to salons when we are actually given a date to reopen, which will protect the community, ourselves and our clients from a surge of re-exposure.

The list of conditions below are common in our clientele. Of these, many also seek the advice of our trainers where we can prevent injury by recognizing dangerous conditions and modify their exercises. An essential part of this ability to personalize training for our clients is that they depend on our ability to care for them, but most importantly, motivate them.

Here in New York City every night at 7PM EST, we show our thanks and appreciation by applauding from our windows to honor the essential workers who are making sure we are safe and healthy, we have the food we need, our lights are on, and our water is running. That undoubtedly makes an impact night after night. What would make an even bigger impact is ensuring that their rights are protected and that essential workers all across America are going to work each day with proper protective gear, hazard pay, and guaranteed sick pay and medical and family leave. This, in addition to the other rights that we are fighting for, will make a real difference in the lives of essential workers all across America. On a personal note: I, like so many Americans, have lost work due to the coronavirus crisis. As someone who would typically be disqualified from receiving UI, I have immense gratitude for Democrats insisting that unemployment benefits be expanded to include gig workers and freelancers. Now, I am asking you to help petition expanding the care even further. Let's get our essential workers protected in the next stimulus package. I'm signing this for my father and my family members who are essential workers. This petition is for you, your loved ones, your friends -- it's a no-brainer. Let's stand in solidarity with our workers on the front lines. Call your representatives. Sign the petition TODAY.

Gov. Jared Polis and health officials across the state of Colorado have done a great job keeping the public informed about the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. But the far-right Republican Minority Leader in the Colorado House, Rep. Patrick Neville, has refused to apologize for comparing the state’s first Jewish governor to the Gestapo and encouraging his political followers to disobey stay-at-home orders. Reached by the Denver Post after Gov. Polis condemned the comparison of stay-at-home orders to Nazism, Minority Leader Neville “declined to apologize.” And even now as the evidence grows that everything we’ve done to fight this pandemic is working and has saved untold numbers of Coloradans, Neville and his small but noisy fringe of far-right activists who wield disproportionate influence in the Colorado Republican Party are giving their supporters advice that could cost lives.

Because we are on week 4 of no pay. We are more sanitary than grocery stores, wal-mart, liquor stores etc. We can take all necessary precautions in order to provide the safety of not only our clients but ourselves. If our governor and his sidekick can have a double standard we can reopen for business with the safety of our community in mind. The reality of it is people are giving house calls to survive. 5.2 million people have filed for unemployment. Crashing the economy is not the answer.

We need to go back to work

Ever since COVID-19 it has been affecting us in major ways and forcing people to make tough decisions for their families. We are going through financial hardship. we were promised bail outs through small business loans or grants. Yet the government has made the stipulations on these grants nearly impossible for our type of business to qualify for the loan to become a grant. Most tattoo shops if not all tattoo shops have been/ will be denied . We have no help when we have been promised help. The Quarantine was implemented to flatten the curve of the spread of COVID-19 to assure that hospitals were not overwhelmed all the once in to help prevent such a rapid spread . The numbers of infected people is on the decline . We tattoo artists are trained and certified in blood-borne pathogen‘s and cross-contamination as well as many other medical safety and sterility procedures we are just as safe if not safer than most hospitals. tattoo shops are very clean we take this serious this is our livelihood if we do not return back to work by May 1st many small businesses will be lost . We will not be able to pay our bills, rents/mortgages, Insurances, we have the very potentially of losing everything. We still have to pay our mortgages/ rents and phone bills and gas and electric none of this has stopped for us . Yes, we can postpone them, but they’re not going away! Some of us can still sustain for a while, but that doesn’t mean that we are doing OK this is how we pay our bills this is how we feed our families and we are not getting any help from anyone, nor are we asking for it. We just want to be allowed to return to work in a safe manor

The survival of the independent beauty professionals is at risk. We are facing a grave financial hardship. Most of our licensed individuals are considered 1099 and are being denied unemployment and are not qualifying for SBA loans in NC.

Small and private massage practices financial hardships, clients falling behind on pain management and therapy, servicemen on frontlines need pain relief and maintenance, reducing the number of clients relying on narcotics and otc pain medications. We are Essential.

Licensed Nail Technicians are independent; self employed as well as small businesses owners going unrecognized by the state and city officials. Some of us also are medically certified and our clients going without care are risking at home injuries and cross contamination.
