Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center Announces New Integrative Wellness Collaboration in Baileyville

The Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center is pleased to announce a new collaboration with Eunice Francis, bringing 5-Needle Point Acupuncture (5NP) services to its Baileyville Center.

This evidence-informed acupuncture protocol, also known as the NADA (National Acupuncture Detoxification Association) protocol, has been used for nearly 50 years in healthcare and community settings to support overall wellness, emotional balance, and recovery.

Beginning April, 21st, services will be available at the Baileyville Center on the first and third Tuesdays of each month by appointment.

Expanding Access to Holistic Care

This new offering reflects the Center’s continued commitment to providing integrative, supportive care for individuals impacted by cancer and chronic illness throughout Washington County.

The 5-Needle Point Acupuncture protocol involves the placement of small, sterile needles in five specific points on the outer ear. This gentle treatment is designed to help regulate the nervous system and promote the body’s natural healing processes.

Participants may experience benefits such as:

Reduced stress, anxiety, and tension
Improved sleep and relaxation
Support for emotional wellbeing and recovery
Relief from symptoms associated with PTSD and toxic stress
Improved overall balance and wellbeing

What to Expect

Sessions are conducted in a calm, supportive environment where participants sit comfortably while the practitioner places needles in both ears. Treatments typically last up to 60 minutes and are designed to be quiet and restorative.

Community-Focused Care

“This collaboration is an important step in expanding access to integrative wellness services in our rural communities,” said Angela Fochesato, Executive Director of the Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center. “We are excited to welcome Eunice and offer additional support options that promote healing, balance, and overall wellbeing.”

Local Salon Partners with Cancer Resource Center for “Polished with Purpose” Campaign

Positively Beautiful Salon & More, located at 1090 Houlton Rd., Baileyville, ME 04694, is proud to announce the launch of “Polished with Purpose,” a year-round cancer awareness and fundraising campaign benefiting the Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center.

This initiative combines beauty, self-care, and community impact by dedicating each month to a different cancer awareness color. Clients can participate by booking themed manicures and pedicures, with a portion of proceeds directly supporting individuals and families affected by cancer in the local community.

Throughout the year, the salon will feature awareness colors such as pink for breast cancer in October, gold for childhood cancer in September, and blue for colon cancer in March. Each service not only promotes awareness but also contributes to vital support services offered by the Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center.

“We wanted to create something meaningful where our clients can feel good and do good at the same time,” said Carrie, owner of Positively Beautiful Salon & More. “This campaign allows us to use our creativity and platform to make a real difference in people’s lives.”

Funds raised will help the Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center continue providing free services such as patient navigation, emotional support, transportation assistance, and wellness programs to cancer patients and their families across the region.

“We are incredibly grateful for partnerships like this,” said Angela Fochesato, Executive Director of the Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center. “Community-driven efforts like ‘Polished with Purpose’ help ensure that no one faces cancer alone.”

In addition to themed nail services, the salon will offer optional donation add-ons, awareness ribbon nail art, and special events throughout the year to further support the cause.

Community members are encouraged to participate by booking appointments, spreading awareness, and following Positively Beautiful Salon & More on social media for monthly updates and fundraising totals.
