Dear Double Happiness Health Community,
With heavy hearts, we temporarily closed our clinic to in-person patient visits on Saturday, two days before the shelter in place directive was given, because we believed the situation warranted extreme caution. We are committed as ever to make your health and safety a priority. While we will be closed for at least three weeks, we look forward to re-opening as soon as we can with all systems in place to provide excellent acupuncture, herbal and massage care while keeping you safe from COVID-19.
If the projected stats are right, many of us may get sick, and there will be challenges to our health care systems. The greatest percentage of us will only get a mild version of the virus with manageable symptoms. Supportive care at home will be appropriate in these cases. We'd like to support our patients during this time with free 15-minute consultations with nutritional, herbal and self care advice. Book online with your practitioner here.
Access our Online Supplement Dispensary for much of what we carry in the clinic, including our suggested immune supplements. For tailored herbal formula's, email us or schedule a 15-min virtual consultation and we will do our best to get those shipped to you asap.
It is important to prioritize sleep and nutrition. Hopefully you have stocked up your pantry, but if needed, here is a shopping list of healthy and delicious foods to consider. Many of our patients have been contending with some serious anxiety. Read about some helpful strategies we recommend here. If you would like to be a part of a virtual support/meditation group with our staff including Dr. Wali, email us at info@doublehappinesshealth.com.
In the meantime, this is an opportunity for many of us to slow down from our busy, fast, extroverted "yang" oriented lives and experience a more quiet, introspective and slow "yin" state. That can be a challenge, but it will yield benefits that will provide much needed resiliency, immune boosting, creativity and stress relief. Hey, with any luck, you might even get bored!! As it turns out, that's great for your brain.
We so appreciate each of you in our community. The immense support we get from you allows us to exist and do work we love. Thank you for your understanding and patience. Most of all, we wish for you and your loved ones a safe and healthy journey during this trying time. We will get through it together!!
With Love,
Christine and the DHH Team
