“Contrary to popular opinion, quitting is for winners.
Knowing when to quit, change direction, leave a toxic situation, demand more from life, give up on something that wasn’t working and move on, is a very important skill that people who win at life all seem to have.”
- Steven Bartlett

Healthy Point Acupuncture will be closing its physical location permanently at the end of June.

I’ve been thinking for a long time about what I want to say in this post. No amount of planning will prevent the muddling through it, so here goes.

I never wanted to open my own practice. I went through acupuncture school and graduated with the intention of working for someone else, so that I could focus my energy on doing the actual thing, rather than splitting focus between healing and businessing. I opened Healthy Point Acupuncture out of necessity, not out of want or any sort of entrepreneurial spirit.

The time is right. The end of June will mark exactly 5 years since opening, and I’ll be in a position where I can smoothly transition back into just working for someone else that handles all of the parts of business that I don’t want to do.

I think it’s important to remember that a business closing doesn’t necessarily mean it was a failure. And that there’s absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to work for someone else.

I can help (and already have helped) more people working for UK in Lexington than I had the capacity to help working for myself. When I took the job, I wasn’t sure that it would work out. I wasn’t ready to just jump in and let go of what I’d built these last five years. But now I am, and the timing couldn’t have been more… right.

Every single one of you has made such a positive impact in my life, both as a person and as a practitioner. I’m so grateful that you all trusted me with your healthcare, and I will forever be so humbled at how you, as patients, have helped me grow as a practitioner. I couldn’t have done any of this without you.

As I said through the height of the pandemic:
Without you, we cannot be.

With so much gratitude for the past and excitement for the future,
Courtney Lantz, Dipl.Ac, L.Ac

We’ve been pretty quiet lately, but a lot has been going on behind the scenes. Today, we finally reopened in our new location!

Thank you so much for being so very patient with us as we’ve shifted into this new chapter. We’ve been so thrilled to see familiar faces in the new space today!

Appointments are filling up fast, so be sure to snag one before it’s too late! (And if you don’t see anything on our schedule that works for you, please reach out to us via text, email, or DM, and we’ll try to squeeze you in if we can!)

We have another scholarship opportunity!

We've got enough in our scholarship fund right now for three folks to have a six-session course of acupuncture fully funded! This includes your initial consultation and acupuncture, cupping, guasha, and/or moxibustion.

If you've been thinking about trying acupuncture, but just can't afford it right now, please send us an email or send us a DM here. Tell us a little bit about yourself, what you're hoping acupuncture can do for you, and what your schedule looks like. We'll get in touch with those selected for a scholarship by the end of September.

Please share, tell your friends, and encourage folks to get in touch if this is something that they could benefit from!

Hey y'all! We have a TON of exciting updates to share with you!

Beginning the week of September 24, 2023, we'll be transitioning to a Saturday-only schedule, with hours from 9 am until 8 pm.

We'll be closed on Saturday, October 14, 2023. Why? We're moving!! is being super kind and allowing us to share space with them! We'll be closed this weekend to move and get set up to start seeing folks in the new location the following week.

Beginning the week of October 21, 2023, we have a couple of changes coming:
✨ Prices are changing. And they're actually going down! We'll be adopting a sliding scale pricing structure, ranging from $40 to $85 - whatever you can afford!
✨ We're moving from private one-on-one sessions to community style. This means you might be sharing a room with someone for your treatment, but there are curtains between each treatment table, so you'll still have privacy. Please note that this is for Traditional Chinese Medicine services only, including acupuncture, cupping, guasha, and moxibustion. Reflexology will remain private sessions, with pricing at $65 for a half hour and $85 for an hour.

We realize that these changes may be inconvenient for some, and for others mean that we're no longer an option at all, and that's okay! We'll be happy to help you find a new provider that better meets your needs.

Head to our website for more information!

We're so excited for this next chapter, and are so appreciative of all of your support and understanding throughout this transition. Y'all really are the best!

Humans have such a complex relationship with pain. Studies have shown time and time again that structural or functional problems that can be imaged or measured don’t always cause pain, but also that pain can’t always be traced back to a structural or functional problem that can be imaged or measured.

It’s that second category, the sufferers of pain with no observable cause, that is so frustrating to so many people. It’s such an odd experience to be hoping for a test to come back abnormal, but for chronic pain sufferers, that’s often the case. An answer that validates the experience of pain is such a relief.

Allopathic medicine isn’t always awesome at addressing that second category of pain. They frequently fall back on a diagnosis of exclusion, meaning they’ve tested for everything they can think of and all of the tests were either normal or inconclusive, so here’s a diagnosis of fibromyalgia, for example.

The pain has a name, finally, but many times it doesn’t have a treatment. Not a good one anyway. Maybe symptom management helps return a measure of normal functionality. Maybe it doesn’t.

It’s these cases that are my favorite. I’ve been there myself, and I understand how incredible it is to leave a treatment room actually feeling noticeably better for the first time in years. Even if it only lasts a day, or a couple of hours. Sometimes that’s enough. And most of the time, that’s just the start.

Pain is our speciality.
Let us help you feel better.

Today is the debut of the first in a series of guided relaxation and breath work videos we’re working on for our YouTube channel!

This first one is a quickie, just shy of 6 minutes long. It’s set to a video taken of Beargrass Creek from our acupuncturist’s favorite park, and guides you through a bit of connection to the breath, then a fast and direct full body relaxation practice.

Whether you’re looking for a quick reset while on a break at work or a bit of help winding down for sleep at night, we hope you’ll check it out (and let us know what you think)!

We hope to get other videos up soon, but we’re taking our time and making sure everything is perfect before posting. And while perfection isn’t actually attainable, getting as close as we can sure can take a while!

And if you have ideas for relaxation, breath work, or other video content you’d like to see, send us a quick message and we’ll see what we can come up with!

There’s no question that the passage and implementation of SB 150 *will* harm Kentucky kids.

While we don’t necessarily provide what could be considered gender affirming care and this bill doesn’t necessarily impact what happens in our treatment rooms, we can’t stand by silently while our kids are being attacked by politicians who fancy themselves medical providers.

Gender is not binary.
Like all things between heaven and earth, gender is infinitely divisible into Yin and Yang.
The “infinitely” piece is the most important bit.
It’s what makes us individuals.
It’s what makes us unique.
It’s what makes us who we are.

Let no one deny you yourself.

One of the most common questions we get asked at a patient’s first visit is “how often should I be seen?” The answer, like with pretty much every question we get asked, is “it depends.”

Basically, the length of treatment is directly related to the length of time you’ve been dealing with the issue, while the frequency of visits is inversely related to the length of time you’ve been dealing with the issue. Acute problems - brand new things that tend to be more severe or bothersome - generally respond better to more frequent visits for a shorter course of treatment. Chronic problems - things that you’ve been dealing with for long enough to have developed a relationship with the symptoms - take longer to respond, so less frequent but very consistent visits for a longer course of treatment tends to do better.

Once your symptoms resolve, then what?

Well, we hope you continue to see us on a regular basis!

See, acupuncture and East Asian medicine are great for dealing with things like pain, fatigue, and anxiety. But they’re also *really* good at helping that body of yours continue operating at maximum efficiency.

If you think of your body like a car (not a one-to-one comparison, we know, but stick with us…), routine maintenance is key to keeping you running as smoothly as possible. Eating well, resting effectively, and exercising consistently are all part of your routine maintenance, and just like a regular oil change on a set schedule, getting an energetic tune-up (like acupuncture) can (and should!) be part of your routine maintenance plan as well.

And if it works better for you to just come in when you start feeling a little off, rather than having a set schedule, that’s totally fine as well!

Remember - our goal is to get you back to the healthy point *AND* help you stay there!

HB470 passed in the Kentucky State House of Representatives yesterday, and now heads to committee in the State Senate.

This bill would prevent *any* form of gender affirming healthcare, including mental healthcare, for trans kids under 18, and would force practitioners to betray their codes of ethics and oaths to do no harm under threat of losing their license to practice.

Tell your lawmakers to stop targeting kids.

Tell your lawmakers to stop forcing us to betray our oaths to do no harm.

This is only one of at least 10 bills currently under consideration that specifically target our LGBTQ community. We’re not going to stand for it.

Now is the time to call your legislators and tell them you oppose these discriminatory and harmful bills.

We stand with our q***r community. You are ALWAYS welcome here, exactly as you are.

Think we just poke you and send you on your way? Think again!

We’ve got a wide variety of topical formulations and mechanical devices to help you keep moving the best you can, even between visits with us!

Wanna try before you buy? We’re happy to give you a sample of that thing we used that smelled so great and felt so amazing (this time of year, it was probably Red Flower Oil… 😍)!

Now, we’re not just a walk-in and buy kind of place. All of these items are sold to patients as part of your treatment plan. This helps us make sure we’re able to keep costs as low as possible for you, and that you know exactly what you’re doing before you leave the office. We even include written instructions for things like cupping and Guasha when at-home treatments are advisable!

Have questions? Ask us! We love questions!
Want us to carry something we don’t right now? Let us know and we’ll look into it!

Goodbye Tiger, hello Rabbit!

While last year’s Water Tiger asked us to be courageous in our introspection, the year of the Water Rabbit is predicted to be a more lucky and creative year compared to last.

If you happen to have been born in a Rabbit year, be cautious this year, as one’s Ben Ming Nian (same animal as the year in which you were born) tends to be a bit more challenging than other years. An easy fix to ward off any potential bad luck? Red un**es (or socks)! Well, that and good communication along with thoughtful decision-making.

Keep in mind that Chinese astrology is not only based on the element and animal associated with each year, but also the interplay between those energies and your individual astrological element and animals. There are sure to be a bunch of predictions floating around about what to expect this new year. Please be diligent about where you’re seeking information and how you’re sharing it.

Seriously - Lunar New Year is an Asian holiday with deep cultural significance. Not only should we be looking to Asian creators and practitioners for guidance and information on what this holiday means and how it should be celebrated (or not), but we should also be *paying* Asian creators and practitioners for that labor.
