Why You Should Ignore All That Coronavirus-Inspired Productivity Pressure
“Now more than ever, we must abandon the performative and embrace the authentic. Our essential mental shifts require humility and patience. Focus on real internal change. These human transformations will be honest, raw, ugly, hopeful, frustrated, beautiful, and divine. And they will be slower than keener academics are used to. Be slow. Let this distract you. Let it change how you think and how you see the world. Because the world is our work. And so, may this tragedy tear down all our faulty assumptions and give us the courage of bold new ideas.”
Good advice.
Anxiety About Coronavirus Van Increase the Risk of Infection – But Exercise Can Help
Worried about COVID-19? You may be putting yourself at undue risk, because chronic anxiety suppresses the immune system and increases our risk for infection.
Evidence that Vitamin D Supplementation Could Reduce Risk of Influenza and Covid-19 Infections and Deaths
This is from April 2nd:
“Evidence supporting the role of vitamin D in reducing risk of COVID-19 includes that the outbreak occurred in winter, a time when 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations are lowest; that the number of cases in the Southern Hemisphere near the end of summer are low; that vitamin D deficiency has been found to contribute to acute respiratory distress syndrome; and that case-fatality rates increase with age and with chronic disease comorbidity, both of which are associated with lower 25(OH)D concentration.”
Get out in the sun TODAY!!!

When We We Reopen the Country? Antibody Testing May Help Officials Decide, Experts Say
“Antibody testing combined with the molecular coronavirus test can determine if a person is immune and can transmit the disease. This is crucial in deciding who can go back to work.”
“Those who are immune and can’t transmit the disease can be on the front lines of the epidemic, keeping daily life afloat in grocery stores, hospitals and other essential businesses…”
“Antibody tests can also identify people who had COVID-19 but didn’t have any symptoms — a group that may be much larger than we know…”

PLEASE REMEMBER:
For the duration of today’s “Stay Home” Executive Order (until April 14th), our offices will be seeing patients BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. This will allow us to space out visits and allow for minimizing contact.
We are still here, still serving the community and helping people in this time of great stress and uncertainty. We are keeping the office extra clean & sanitized—wiping down all surfaces consistently as well as wiping down tables after every adjustment. We even have cleaning products in the rooms, if you feel more comfortable doing it yourself.
TUESDAY: 9am-noon
WEDNESDAY: 4pm-7pm
THURSDAY: 4pm-6pm
SATURDAY: 8am-11am
TUESDAY: 9:30am-12:30pm
FRIDAY: 3pm-6pm
NOTE: Normally, we encourage patients to come in and get adjusted if they are expressing viral symptoms. At this time, for the safety of everyone, we are asking that if you are expressing these types of symptoms to please call us and reschedule your appointment. If you aren’t sure you should still come in, just call us and we will ask you a few questions over the phone to help make the best decision.
