Calm Spirit Acupuncture and Massage Therapy

Important information on Vitamin D3 . . . we should all be supplementing with this!

Dear friends ~ I hope this finds you all well and in good spirits. It's a strange and not easy time in so many ways, but it helps to recognize and appreciate the simple, vital things that make up our everyday. One of these is the fact that we can walk outside in this beautiful season, with everything bursting with life. . . and change. A reminder and affirmation of the way things are. There are moments when we can definitely appreciate the fact that there's nothing certain in... this life except change itself! I have finally been able to acquire more of the immune-building herbs and supplements, as well as the very helpful ones that treat colds and flu with their accompanying symptoms. Chinese medicine offers a great variety of herbal formulas that can stop a cold at the first sign, treat the nasal and chest symptoms during, and help you to get back to good health after. Of course, if you experience any of the symptoms that are common to Covid 19, get in touch with your regular doctor or the hospital. Medicinal mushrooms are another excellent immune system ally. It's often recommended to alternate formulas and supplements every month or two to give the body a fresh input. Finally, and just as important is the nervous system. Exercise is so helpful for calming the mind, raising the spirits and letting go of tension. A simple walk ~ being attentive to what's around ~ can do wonders! In addition, herbs and herbal formulas can help to keep your nervous system happy. I'm not yet back at the office but am hoping to start back in May. Meanwhile, please reach out if you have any questions or need for some of these herbal allies. I'm here, and happy to hear from you. Be safe!

Dear friends, In light of the current conditions surrounding Covid-19, I’ve decided to close the office until at least the 7th of April. Herbs and supplements will still be available for you, if you simply get in touch by text, phone or messenger. It has been difficult to replenish many of the herbal formulas for colds, flus and immune system boosting, but there are still some available, and I am constantly working to find sources. Meanwhile, we will stay well with gratitud...e and loving thoughts, healthy eating habits, (no sugar!) plenty of rest, and times for contemplation or meditation. We will get outside for a walk every day in our beautiful spring world, to find ourselves secure in the here and now. We’ll be kind to each other, and of course follow the guidelines for social distancing, hand washing and all the things that will help keep everyone safe. Wishing us all good health, peaceful spirits, and vitality ~
