Flu / Corona Virus!

HOW CAN ACUPUNCTURE HELP YOU DURING THIS COVID-19 PANDEMIC?

Many of us are feeling the stress of the current restrictions in our society, as well as fear of getting sick. This can create cortisol and other imbalances in our body, leading to anxiety, depression and insomnia. This, in turn, can leave us vulnerable to numerous ailments and emotional issues.

In addition, many patients are complaining of increased pain during these times. This can be caused by excessive stress, working from home in non-ergonomic situations, lack of exercise or simply a different routine in daily life.

Acupuncture can help to balance the hormones, reduce stress, anxiety, depression and insomnia. It also helps treat pain and muscle tension anywhere in the body. Acupuncture is also known to boost the immune system.

So, in so many ways, acupuncture can help us all get through the challenges that our society is facing at this time!

SANITIZATION OF CLINIC:

*** Please be advised that, at Acupuncture RI, we are taking every precaution and measure to keep our space free from the potential threat of this and all viruses. We have ramped up efforts and are taking measures to add to the already vigorous practice of disinfecting our space regularly.

In addition to other sanitation measures, we have multiple levels of HEPA and UV light air filtration in the clinic. We are also coordinating the timing of our patients so that “social distancing” rules apply.

If you will be coming into the office as a patient or otherwise, it is absolutely essential that you call us to cancel your appointment if you are showing any signs of illness, have traveled in the recent weeks, have a fever or have been in contact with a patient who is sick. If you arrive and are showing any signs of illness, we will have to reschedule your visit for a future time.

We, also, will not come to work if any of us are unwell.

We thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we all go through this together!
