Describe eight personal sanitation and hygiene guidelines that are useful for spa and bodywork practitioners

What will be an ideal response?

? Take care of personal hygiene by bathing daily.
? Keep nails short and clean, and do not wear nail polish.
? Do not wear rings, bracelets, or wristwatches during treatments.
? Wear a clean uniform or clean clothing each day.
? Thoroughly wash hands, forearms, and elbows and dry them before and after each treatment. Hands should also be washed during the treatment if warranted, such as after application of a body wrap substance or touching a contaminated surface such as a dirty towel.
? Disposable gloves should be worn any time the practitioner has a cut or broken skin, such as from a wound, on the hands, when handling contaminated linens, or when cleaning any equipment that has come in contact with body fluids.
? Do not perform treatments if ill because of the danger of passing on pathogens to clients and co-workers.
? Do not perform treatments under the influence of alcohol or recreational drugs.
