Re: Our health as a community 03/14/2020 (UPDATED 03/24/2020.)
To My Treasured Patients:
As recommendations come out from our state and county agencies for managing the spread of this Novel Coronavirus- COVID-19- I feel a strong responsibility to keep my patients informed and protect those in our community who are most vulnerable - including myself and my family. I believe that information is power and the more we know, the more we can calmly and rationally do our best in this situation. In light of this basic premise, I have closed the Hands of Light Chiropractic Care office until Tuesday APRIL 14, 2020 (UPDATE 03/24/2020). I planned the INITIAL WEEK OF closure several weeks prior, as I gathered information and anticipated this COVID-19 virus would be declared a pandemic. Because, by March 24, 2020, there were more stringent state-wide measures in place to slow our exposure to the virus, I HAVE CLOSED THE OFFICE TO IN-PERSON CARE EXCEPT FOR EMERGENCIES. I am currently scheduling only remote IQM ENERGY HEALING SESSIONS. My patient schedule is open as usual and as currently scheduled after APRIL 14, 2020. (UPDATED 03/24/2020).
When the practice is open, I plan to continue, as usual, to wash or sanitize my hands between each patient and persist in stepping up efforts to sanitize all high contact surfaces of my treatment table between patients. I have also stepped up efforts to sanitize and clean high-touch surfaces such as door k***s, counters, water pitchers etc. throughout the day. It will also help if each patient uses hand sanitizer provided at the front desk before signing in, after touching their face, coughing, sneezing and blowing their nose. UPDATE 04/02/2020: I WILL BE MAKING MASKS FOR MY PATIENTS TO WEAR WHILE IN THE OFFICE, to take home, wash and sanitize and bring back to wear for their next visit. I WILL ALSO BE WEARING A MASK AND FACE SHIELD WHEN WORKING WITH PATIENTS. This way we will all protect each other. If patients prefer to bring their own masks, that is fine, as long as they are secure in the protocols for sanitizing their mask properly. There are never fees for late cancellation of appointments due to illness and this policy continues. If you are sick, please call your MD and stay home until you are better. Just let me know as soon as you can if you need to cancel an appointment, preferably by cancelling online and leaving a message via the Schedulicity app, so that I may plan accordingly. Together, we will delay the spread of this virus so that those who need advanced medical care will not all need it at the same time.
Meanwhile I encourage you to take this seriously to protect those you love (or don’t even know) who are vulnerable- those over 60 and/or with underlying respiratory conditions, heart disease or immune compromise. Wash your hands frequently, stay home if you are sick, avoid touching your face (impossible!!!! LOL 🙂), cough/sneeze into a tissue or at least your elbow instead of your hands and clean your hands after you do, avoid large gatherings for now and explore ways to connect virtually with those you love until the spread of COVID-19 has slowed and is better understood with increased testing of our population.
The very best thing you can do is to support your own health in every way you can by taking the opportunity of cancelled events to get more rest, if possible, hydrate well and eat healthy foods. Take the time to breathe and relax yourself, meditate on health and wellness and calm, remind yourself that your body and immune system are miraculous systems which fight viruses all day long, every day without you even being aware of it!!!
I am planning to offer a series of virtual group meditations and am researching the logistics of this now. I will be in contact with you as soon as I have a plan.
Also know that IQM- Integrated Quantum Medicine- Energy Healing sessions are available and may be scheduled online via Schedulicity. These are perfect for these times because they are done remotely, by phone, and many patients find these sessions to bring powerful healing and clearing. Please follow the link provided to schedule at www.maureen-boylan-dc.com
If it is your first energy session, please choose a 60 minute session, if you have already started this work with me in a previous session, feel free to choose a 30 minute session.
Please feel free to contact me if necessary if you have questions not addressed in this message. I promise I will stay in touch.
Most Sincerely,
Maureen C. Boylan DC
