*** Thank you for your attention, wanted to share some information to ease the anxiety and panic that seems to be the pervasive mood***

We are experimenting with office hours, this week will be M-W-F from 8-11 am & 3-6 pm. This could change by next week. We are getting busier as more folks are finding out that regular care decreases the accumulation of stress and anxiety. Also, the governor has deemed chiropractic care ESSENTIAL! We are taking precautions seriously and are here for your safety. The integrity and function of your spine and nervous system are interlinked both anatomically and physiologically. One of the major premises of our profession is that a wellness lifestyle encourages us to LIVE OUR LIFE WITHOUT FEAR. We used to joke that doctors got immunity when we received our diplomas, who would be around to care for the sick, if doctors were sick?
Rule #1 in these kinds of situations is to NOT PANIC!
Daily you should be getting plenty of sleep, taking naps. Hydrate. Get off the couch and go outside for a walk (BTW how many of you have seen an abundance of new walkers?). Boost your levels of Vitamin C, take your probiotics, get good rest and spend some time in prayer, meditation and/or journaling. We have a wonderful saying that we have been using for years. “DON'T LET THINGS YOU CANT CONTROL, CONTROL YOU”. Anxiety makes people say and do stupid things; be nice to one another, we are all in this together. Practice graciousness w/ your quarantined friends and family.
*** If you have a specific request of getting checked but you don’t want others here, give the office a call and we’ll see if we can accommodate that request 694-7790***
This situation will end and as Americans we will survive, learn, grow and come back stronger as a nation and a people. Don’t panic, practice patience.

We are here for you, Dr Todd Dr Pete & Melisa

Hello patients and friends, this is Dr Todd.

We hope you are all doing well and taking GREAT care of yourselves during this time.

Myself & Melisa are currently under quarantine for another 12 days, as we just got back from Ireland last Friday. we will be back in the office April 2nd. Dr Pete is in the office and will be adjusting everyone until then.

We currently remain OPEN, though we are seeing fewer patients than usual. Our capacity is reduced in order to practice safe distancing techniques and to prevent having people share space in our reception area. All treatment rooms are fully sanitized as each patient leaves, common areas are cleaned all day long with additional sanitizing every hour.

All non essential offices in our community are closing, however, in New York, we are considered an ESSENTIAL Business and will stay open as long as it is safe to do so.

Chiropractic is essential to many of you for different reasons. But when considering how to proceed during this period of uncertainty we keep returning to the basic idea that if we are here for you right now we can prevent trips to Urgent Care/ Immediate Care facilities or Emergency Rooms (which are already over burdened, and have become places where corona virus can possibly be spread in waiting areas etc..). Be patient with us though, we are short staff members, and we must continue to pre-screen over the phone and at the office to be sure you can be seen. If you are unwell, have a fever, cough or shortness of breath we will not schedule you, but refer to your primary for instruction. We will not schedule you for an appointment if any family members have symptoms or confirmed cases of corona virus, or if you have been instructed to self isolate or to self quarantine. Hours may be modified or changed in upcoming days, we will keep you updated.

We want to remind you to do the things that nourish and support your body. Eat and drink well, move your body, keep your stress levels down, go outside, soak up some sunshine & fresh air, go for walks if you are able, play games, play music, do your prescribed stretches and exercises, keep up with your vitamins and supplements,learn something new on YouTube, have a family dance party, make some crafts, clean out or reorganize your home, do some yard work, make some overdue phone calls, check in on people who are alone, isolated or elderly. We will get through this together!!

Stay healthy and Melisa and I will see you all soon!!

Far too many people (including chiropractors) are not aware of historical events that took place during the 1917 – 1918 Spanish Flu years, which involved chiropractors caring for thousands that suffered influenza infection during those times. With such a firestorm of media coverage and fear surrou...
