Dear Friends,

Great Lakes Acupuncture is going to reopen with limited service next Monday, June 1st. Because of the ongoing covid-19 pandemic, we will be taking precautions following American Society of Acupuncture (ASA)and the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine’s(NCCAOM) pandemic treatment guidelines to keep patients safe and reduce the threat of contamination. The following are the precautions:

1. No symptoms 4 weeks prior to treatment: Anyone who is seeking acupuncture treatment should not have had any fever or other flu symptoms in the past 4 weeks. We will be asking for this when you schedule an appointment as a precautionary measure and we ask that you reply honestly for others safety. We will also be taking your temperature once you arrive at the office. If your temperature is higher than 37 °C or 98.5 °F, we cannot provide you treatment.

2. Face masks on: We will be enforcing the usage of face masks in the office. They will be worn the whole time, including during treatment. If you do not have a suitable mask, we are able to provide one for you.

3. Waiting inside your car: The waiting area in our facility will not be open at this time. Instead of coming in, please wait inside your car and call us to let us know of your arrival. We will notify you when you are able to come inside to receive treatment.

4. Consent forms: All visitors will be asked to sign a “Covid-19 Informed Consent to Treatment” form issued by AAC

5. Extra sanitization measures: We will be sanitizing treatment rooms after each patient with UV light and disinfectant wipes. We will also be using disposable pillow covers ,table sheets, capes and gowns.

To ensure everyone’s safety and health is our highest priority at this time. We ask that everyone who comes follows the precautions listed above.
During this pandemic, we thank you for your understanding.

PREVENTION OF VIRAL ILLNESSES AND SELF-CARE ADVICE
From the International College of Integrative Medicine https://icimed.com/icim-position-statement-on-2020-coronavirus-covid-19-outbreak/
• Eat clean food (fresh, local, mostly produce, free of preservatives, dyes, additives and pesticides) – lots of fruits and vegetables, and also nuts and seeds.
• Drink clean water (filtered, not from a plastic bottle).
• Exercise most days of the week. (30 min to target heart rate 5 days per week)
• Sleep soundly 7-8 hours per night.
• Spend time daily in gratitude, prayer, and meditation.
• Consider daily saline lavage of mucus membranes (neti pot).
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
• Stay home when you are sick. (14 days quarantine after known COVID-19 infection)
• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe. Pay attention to instructions. Some cleaners require 10 MINUTES of contact time for disinfection to occur.
• Follow CDC’s recommendations for using a facemask. CDC does not recommend that people who are well wear a face mask to protect themselves from respiratory diseases, including COVID-19. Face masks should be used by people who show symptoms of COVID-19 to help prevent the spread of the disease to others. The use of facemasks is also crucial for health workers and people who are taking care of someone in close settings (at home or in a healthcare facility).
The physicians of the Orthomolecular Medicine News Service and the International Society for Orthomolecular Medicine urge a nutrient-based method to prevent or minimize symptoms for future viral infection. The following inexpensive supplemental levels are recommended for adults; for children reduce these in proportion to body weight:
1. Vitamin C: 3,000 milligrams (or more) daily, in divided doses.
2. Vitamin D3: 2,000 International Units daily. (Start with 5,000 IU/day for two weeks, then reduce to 2,000)
3. Magnesium: 400 mg daily (in citrate, malate, chelate, or chloride form)
4. Zinc: 20 mg daily
5. Selenium: 100 mcg (micrograms) daily
