Can\u2019t help myself. So obviously for Christmas 2020 I gifted my massage therapist spouse a CO2 monitor. Are you hearing a Kenny Gee saxophone solo right now too?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sexy Sax Man (prank feat.

(TMI trigger warning).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, after the predictable waves of erotically-charged COVID-safish displays of affection waned, aforementioned spouse \u2013 henceforth known as CO2bro &#8211; got on with the task of testing and monitoring the ventilation levels in his clinic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>But wait \u2013 why are we talking about CO2 monitors anyway?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>CO2 monitors are the must-have accessory of the modern massage therapist. They are the newest tool in the toolbox. Cause CO2 measurement is a darn-good proxy for how well ventilated your clinic space is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still don\u2019t know why I am banging on about it? <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amt.org.au\/downloads\/COVID-19\/AMT-Massage-Therapy-service-restrictions-during-COVID.pdf\" data-type=\"URL\" target=\"_blank\">Read this<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actually, read it anyway.&nbsp; It\u2019s pretty excellent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amt.org.au\/downloads\/COVID-19\/AMT-Ventilation-fact-sheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">read this<\/a>. I give it 5 stars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I mean \u2026 if you\u2019re not frantically searching for CO2 monitors on eBay now are you even a massage therapist? There are a bazillion kinds out there, ranging from about $30AUD through to luxury models at around $200. You can purchase them on eBay or Amazon or at your local hardware store or many many places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prepare to be astonished when you start using one. And not necessarily in a good way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The monitoring begins<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It started off swimmingly. CO2bro began monitoring in January, returning to practice after the Northern Beaches and Berala COVID clusters were under control. (At one point, we were surrounded by exposure locations so a temporary shut down was necessary. For our overseas audience, please bear in mind that an outbreak in Australia can mean community transmission in single digits. The city of Perth is just about to come out of a 5-day lockdown due to a single case of the UK COVID variant in a hotel quarantine worker.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s the height of summer in Sydney. As the pics below show, CO2bro\u2019s clinic is in an old building, built long before air-conditioning transformed the way we design our homes and offices. It has two nice big windows, a high ceiling and a door opposite the windows, which mostly stays closed during appointments for privacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205094621.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"3045\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.amt.org.au\/?attachment_id=3045\" class=\"wp-image-3045\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205094621-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205094621-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205094621-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205094621-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205094621-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205094621-scaled.jpg?resize=750%2C563&amp;ssl=1 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">The windows<br><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093907-1.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"3053\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.amt.org.au\/?attachment_id=3053\" class=\"wp-image-3053\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093907-1-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093907-1-scaled.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093907-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093907-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C2048&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093907-1-scaled.jpg?resize=750%2C1000&amp;ssl=1 750w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093907-1-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C400&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093907-1-scaled.jpg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">The door<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093822-2.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"3054\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093822-2-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.amt.org.au\/?attachment_id=3054\" class=\"wp-image-3054\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093822-2-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093822-2-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093822-2-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093822-2-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093822-2-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG20210205093822-2-scaled.jpg?resize=750%2C563&amp;ssl=1 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">The CO2bro CO2 monitor<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\">CO2bro&#8217;s clinic &#8211; 14 foot ceilings, big ass windows and a CO2 monitor<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On a breezy summer day, the clinic windows are open continuously and CO2 in the room hovers around 400ppm, which is pretty close to parity with outdoor levels. That\u2019s good ventilation. (Ideally, you want CO2 to stay below 600ppm). On a still day without a breeze, it starts to slowly creep up. After around half an hour, the door opposite needs to open to maintain good ventilation. Having the clinic door open has necessitated some new client privacy protocols and has other infection control implications but that\u2019s a story for another blog post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The cold day \u2026<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As you good folk know, people get cold on a massage table pretty quickly. And even during a Sydney summer, you get those occasional days where it\u2019s cool enough for clients to feel the chill. And we had one of those days in Sydney a few weeks ago. So CO2bro closed the windows and turned on the gas heater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Then this happened &#8230;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Within 10 minutes, the CO2 leapt to (drum roll please) <strong><em>2600ppm<\/em><\/strong>! Imagine how much COVID soup you\u2019d be in if there was an infectious person in the room?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s about 72 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.effinbirds.com\/collections\/hygiene\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">effin\u2019birds<\/a> cartoons I would like to display at this point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CO2bro had to do some quick thinking to manage the appointment and the ambient temperature in the clinic. Pivoting on the go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>But, hang on, the blog title said this wasn\u2019t about COVID-19<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>And, yes, in my tricky way I have stuck to that brief because this isn\u2019t a blog post about COVID-19. It\u2019s a blog post about COVID-21.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As depressing as that sounds, particularly in the context of an immensely COVID-fatigued world, be prepared to start hearing about COVID-21. Because my bold prediction is that this is how we will start to refer to the new COVID variants that are showing themselves to be more transmissible and thus more devastating than their 2019 edition monster parent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the massage therapy industry can\u2019t afford to ignore the implications of this. If you haven\u2019t started monitoring and addressing ventilation issues in your clinic with engineering controls, it\u2019s time to start now. If that means investing in an air purifier that filters viruses, do the research and invest in one now. If you\u2019re working from a home-based clinic, you will need a contingency plan for future shut downs, because if one of the variants gets any kind of foothold in the community in Australia, you will categorically not be able to work from a home-based practice no matter how much separation you have in your facilities. The public health regulations will reflect the elevated seriousness of the risks and home business will be at the front of the line for closure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"575\" height=\"385\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/HierarchyControls.jpg?resize=575%2C385&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3046\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/HierarchyControls.jpg?w=575&amp;ssl=1 575w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.amt.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/HierarchyControls.jpg?resize=300%2C201&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 575px) 100vw, 575px\" \/><figcaption>We&#8217;ve kind of being applying the hierarchy of controls upside down.

The AMT massage therapy service restrictions matrix linked above already foregrounds the significance of ventilation. Be prepared for that document to be deployed hard and early in AMT\u2019s guidance if COVID-21 becomes a thing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have heard the term &#8220;hygiene theatre&#8221; bandied about to describe all the energy and focus invested in fomite transmission (cleaning and disinfecting surfaces) at the expense of aerosols. Be prepared for ventilation vigilance, because that&#8217;s what the new variants are asking of us all already. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I know some of you reading this post will be picturing me as Chicken Little, screaming about the sky falling. However, we have manifold evidence from around the world that clearly shows the level of threat that the COVID variants pose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the plus side, there is an opportunity here as well \u2026 to get creative in how you deliver your services: re-imagine your practice; incorporate more of a coaching and empowerment approach to care; do your client intakes outdoors in a local park; dip your toes into online consults to support your clients. Start somewhere. Anywhere.
