I neither know nor care what your chiropractor is doing and why. I do have the relevant report information, though.

Phase Two (estimated to start no earlier than June 1st): Sectors such as “hospitality and personal care are not able to reopen at this point because the risk of transmission in these environments is higher,”

Phase Three (estimated to start no earlier than July 4th) "Personal care” businesses – aka beauty salons and hairdressers – could potentially reopen on July 4, subject to the infection level being low enough. They will also have to meet the Covid-19 Secure guidelines.

Also, “Some venues which are, by design, crowded and where it may prove difficult to enact distancing may still not be able to reopen safely at this point, or may be able to open safely only in part,”

There is nothing whatsoever about any of that that suggest we'll be legally allowed to work from the first of June. How much that matters to each individual is up to them, obviously.

Just finished reading the PDF. You may be right: hospitality and personal care will not be opened till phase 3 (which might happen if all goes well July 4th). Is my chiro/physio not considered "personal care" but more like "medical care"?  (and more important than hairdressers) hence the reason they get to open June 1st?  Truth is I have no idea, but fact is they ARE opening.

Ana it'll be interesting to see if they do open or whether they realise they might be a little ahead of themselves. I dunno, that is a tad strange and doesn't fit in with the guidelines. 🤔

I looked at the YouTube clip someone mentioned here and wow. I hate those "gotcha" questions. Thought she handled it well but would have loved it if she'd asked the little runt reporter about Tinder etc and watch him stutter and stammer, doubt woulda posted that online then. We should maybe all have a defence along those lines ready to go if happens to any sex workers out there reading this.

I've never used it and didn't realise it was mostly free sex.

Amy, I'm going through the government PDF as I type this, I'm not making it up (govnmt PDF page 21), besides, why would two big known physio and chiro clinics in central London email their clients regarding their June 1st opening?

Physio and chiropractor are considered similar to a doctor there has been a few already open through lockdown but only for emergencies patients in very bad pain. My uncle visited one a little while back when in bad pain and they were only seeing patient's that needed urgent treatment probably like dentists only seeing emergency cases in lockdown. So i could imagine more re opening for emergencies.

I really can't see face masks being something clients will wish to wear in a booking.  Although a few may arrive wearing one.

Time will tell.

Handgel as soon as they arrive from 4th July and then insisting on a shower plus putting their clothing in a black binliner will help.  I will throw away each binliner after individual use.  Best start stocking up slowly now on those.

I think in relation to certain areas reopening the 1st June this would be inline with the NHS writing to all trusts and encouraging them to restart elective surgery again. There is a concern to get things started again and for the nhs trusts to start treating people again. So for example a knee op is being encouraged to go ahead now.

Chiropractors are quite medical really it does take a good few years of training and they fund themselves.  They take X rays also.

On the other hand dentists are not allowed to open till maybe August or September (only a few are open just for emergencies), but it's ok for hairdressers and pubs to open July? Totally baffled.

Nobody has said it's 'OK' for hairdressers and pubs to reopen in July. They MAY be able to open if they can adhere to the distancing rules and apply other safety precautions (masks for hairdressers and so on) where this isn't possible. And you're 'baffled' because somebody whose job is literally to look closely into and poke about some random's wide open uncovered mouth might be at bit cautious about it? Seriously?

Time - again - to get back to sex work, I think. This is like having my brain rolled in broken glass.

Just an update on this having studied the guidance this morning regards businesses which must be closed, it would seem Chiros, Chiropody, Dentist, Mental Health services are 'exemptions' to the 'must close premises' list of businesses.

I've signed up for the daily updates on updates to the guidelines, quite useful then you know whether it's worth having a look if you have already looked.

And you think that sex workers should or will be be added to this list?

No.

Although I massage parlours are on there alongside spas, however I would guess that refers to actual massage rather than brothel 'massage'.

Well if dentists were open for non-emergencies, I'd say yes. Why so abrupt?
