2021 Here we come!

Hindsight is finally 2020!!

Happy New Year to all and our best wishes for a better year.  We have a ways to go but a new year always offers a fresh start.  Vaccines are on the horizon and the possibility of life beginning to return to normal at least feels like it may be in reach.

With each new year people often look to their health and how they can take better care of themselves.  Is acupuncture part of your plan for the year?  We are here and ready to help you in that endeavor and never before has one's health been so paramount!  

Acupuncture, & Chinese Medicine can help modulate the immune response to be at its best, can help deal with one's response to stress and anxiety, and can help with all the regular aches and pains and other health issues we have to deal with in our everyday.

If you haven't checked in in a while we have made many changes to our procedures to ensure everyone's safety during these times.  
  • We have changed our scheduling to allow for just one practitioner per day to minimize traffic.
  • We are updating your status prior to your appointment over the phone to minimize time in the office.  This may even be from your car in the parking lot.
  • We have HEPA filters with UV sanitizing lights in each room.
  • We check temperatures and pulse oximetry each visit.
  • We are fortunate to not share ventilation with other tenants (as in office buildings) and have windows that open.
  • We have vinyl sheeting on the tables and sanitize between patients.
  • We have pared down our space to clear unnecessary surfaces that need cleaning.
  • And we have instituted many other small changes that help with the big impact of assuring everyone's safety.

From you, our patients, first and foremost we are asking for your cooperation and honesty in following the guidelines and recommendations of our state health department.
  • If you are experiencing acute symptoms like
    • fever or chills
    • muscle or body aches
    • cough, or difficulty breathing
    • runny nose, sore throat 
    • fatigue
    • loss of taste or smell
    • acute headaches
    • unusual diarrhea, nausea, vomiting,
    • or have been exposed to someone diagnosed with COVID-19, please call to reschedule.  There will be no fee associated with late cancellations concerning COVID.
  • We ask that all patients wash hands upon entry as we do between all patient interactions.
  • We ask that you wear masks the entire time in our clinic
  • We ask that no visitors, including children, accompany you for your appointments.  If they must we ask that they stay in the car.

We at Point Well Taken are all in the higher risk group, and have many patients who fall into the high risk group as well, so we ask for your honest and conservative consideration in this regard. We would all rather be safe than sorry, so please do your part.

If needed we offer Telehealth sessions via FaceTime or Zoom and would encourage this option if you are getting sick.
Once again Laura will be available for consultations and herbal advice if you are concerned or feeling symptomatic. This is different than a cold or common flu, and Chinese Medicine is uniquely poised to help; and so are we.

Please read through the emails with appointment confirmations for more specifics and don't hesitate to reach out to us with any questions or concerns.

We have set up a Fullscript page to order supplements like Vitamins and probiotics at a discount directly. (See button to the right =>).  If you need guidance on ordering, feel free to reach out and we can assist you.  We can do the same with some herbal formulas.

Chinese medicine is uniquely poised to deal with this illness, not just because of it's origin and therefore, their experience, but because Chinese Herbal Medicine has been dealing with infectious disease for thousands of years!  
Attached is an excellent article on this "Damp plague" by a colleague with links to other resources.
