We’re excited to share that Occupational Therapist Kaydrie Groenke, OTD, OTR/L recently completed advanced training in dry needling in Washington, D.C. and is now offering this service at our clinic!

👉 What is dry needling?
According to the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA), dry needling is a skilled intervention that uses a thin, solid filament needle to pe*****te the skin and stimulate underlying muscle trigger points and connective tissue. The goal is to manage neuromusculoskeletal pain, reduce tension, and improve movement.

On August 8, 2025, I did a first in my life. I delivered memory bears that had been crafted by hospice volunteers made from Mrs. Holmes' clothing. I had never met Mr. Holmes or his wife, Nancy, but I know what the family was experiencing and happy to offer bereavement support.

Help us welcome two new nurse practitioners to Mosaic Life Care — Darci Feiden, APRN and Valerie Watts, APRN.

“The best environment to work with a patient is one in which they feel comfortable," says Darci. "It is truly about finding out who my patients are and meeting them where they are.”

“Everybody comes from different walks in life and that to me is so precious,” says Valerie. “Being able to learn something about each patient helps me to care for them with an open mind and open heart.”

Get in touch with Darci and Valerie at Mosaic Life Care at St. Joseph – Internal Medicine Plaza 2 — https://www.mymlc.com/Main/Location/st-joseph-mo/mosaic-life-care-at-st.-joseph-medical-center/plaza-2/Internal-Medicine-Plaza2/
