Kyle Flaman, RMT

Hello everyone!
It looks like May 19th will be the date that I’m allowed to resume practice. I can’t wait to get back at it! There will be new safety measures to follow (TBD as of yet) which is a good thing but moving forward feels good. I hope you all are doing well and I look forward to seeing everyone again. Take care and stay safe!

Hello all!
What a crazy whirlwind this last week or so has been. In response to the State of Emergency MTAS is recommending that all RMT’s suspend practice until the end of March for now and possibly beyond, depending on recommendations from our top doctors.
Effective immediately I am closed for business until it’s deemed safe to resume. If anyone has any questions regarding home care or self massage to tide you over until we can see patients again, please reach out to me and ask!
I would like to say a big thank you to all who have reached out to me in these tough times to express concern and gratitude. I can’t express how much it means to me.
Take care!

Kyle
