To provide clarity for those with questions or concerns about what we are doing during the current coronavirus outbreak, we would like to provide the following information that is supported by current facts from both the Oregon Health Authority and the Centers For Disease Control.

We have always maintained very high standards with regards to sanitation and hygiene. It is a requirement inherent to what we do as a clinic, especially during the flu and cold season. And considering the current situation, we have implemented more stringent internal sanitation and hygiene protocols among our staff and health care providers.

Especially if you are 60 years of age or older or have underlying health conditions, please stay at home until you recover, call us to reschedule, and contact your primary care physician as necessary if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, or if you have been in contact with someone with the following symptoms:

• fever

• chills

• unrelenting cough

• unexplained fatigue

• generalized body aches

Please rest assured that the majority of confirmed coronavirus cases are mild and most people recover without complications or the need for additional medical care. For more information on the pandemic and the operating procedures for chiropractic professionals during this time, please refer to this communication by the World Federation of Chiropractic.

As always, all of us at Equilibrium have your health and well-being in mind.
