Exercise is so important that NOT walking an hour a day is considered a “high-risk” behavior. https://bit.ly/2BsKqJP

It is SO important to understand the training your health practitioner has had.
If you have questions about dry needling we can talk all about it during your next appointment. I assure you I have a lot to say about it.

Because acupuncture can be a new thing for many to try lots of questions are asked. And often times the person asking is already chuckling (although sometimes nervously) when phrasing their question.

Please note ALL questions are good!! Learning is fun and being silly about it is even more fun. We love our clientele here and are always happy to share knowledge about this awesome medicine!

So ask away 😊

In addition to helping humans in the office, helping animals is equally important. So every year business funds are allocated to Organizations that advocate for animals of ALL kinds. This year donations were made to Cherryland Humane Society , Humane World for Animals , and Mercy For Animals in both monthly and yearly contributions.

Wondering who the two rascals are in the photo? Those are/were my dogs Koda and Bodhi. Koda has lived the good life in a warm home since she was a puppy. And she’s still frolicking around our woods.

Bodhi had a different journey. He was found scavenging for food in an alley when I lived in Chicago. He had no collar, no chip and no idea about where he was from. He was a puppy and I think he was about 6 months old but we will never know. I brought him home and he went on to have a fun adventurous life until he passed at about 12 years old. When I volunteer and donate to shelters it’s in honor of my sweet rescue pup Bodhi that brought so much joy into my life.

How about you? Are there any animals near and dear to your heart? Would you like to help them all? - I certainly would!

Please consider making a donation to these organizations or any other charity that pulls on your heart strings. Let’s continue the season of giving. 🙏.

Winter can be such a lovely time of year. The beauty of the white snow, crisp air and quiet stillness throughout. Snowshoes, skis or skates - there are plenty of activities to enjoy. Unless lingering pain is keeping you stuck inside?

If you are having some nagging aches and pains with the onset of cold weather let’s get you in for a Treatment asap. Movement is so important during these winter months to keep your physical and mental health running smoothly. And even though rest is important we don’t want to let the long hibernation months take a toll on you.

Book online or give a call today and let’s keep you moving along during these beautiful winter months.

Using your HSA funds for preventative healthcare is an excellent strategy for keeping healthcare costs low. Services like acupuncture can help a wide array of conditions and even prevent major medical procedures like surgeries, injections or even going on some medications.

Holistic maintenance treatments also aid to manage symptoms so that you lessen your chances of needing urgent care.

It’s easy to open an HSA - Health Savings Account. You can contact your health insurance representative for guidance on which health plans are eligible for an HSA. Also many local and online banks/credit unions can also provide you with an HSA as long as you have an eligible high-deductible health plan(HDHP).

Healthcare can be overwhelming at times, but it doesn’t have to be. Set yourself up with a preventative mindset for your health needs and your savings.

If you have more questions we are also here to help in anyway we can.

Call or book online today for a free consultation.

For over 13 years Live Well acupuncture has been primarily a cash pay practice. This was mainly chosen because it is easier, you know, less paperwork, billing claims, etc. Then, a few months ago a decision was made.

And that was: It’s time to help as many people in the community as possible.

Prices on basic needs have been going up across the board and healthcare is no exception. So for many, self care comes down to what their health insurance plan will cover or assist with. And anything extra isn’t an option.

And so to bridge that gap of making holistic healthcare more available Ive opted to go in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield, MESSA and PriorityHealth.

For the past 10 years I’ve also been a provider for the VA and have been serving our veterans as well.

Hopefully with all these avenues open - more patients can put their physical/mental health first and enjoy the benefits of acupuncture.

Call today and let’s get started on your self care plan.

Please consider Giving to this wonderful organization this upcoming Tuesday.

Mark your calendars - Giving Tuesday is just one week away!❤️🐾

Every donation made to Cherryland Humane Society will go straight to our Emergency Vet Fund, providing urgent medical care for animals arriving in critical condition.

This year alone, your generosity has saved pets like a cat with multiple hernias and a dog who needed an emergency leg amputation. They’re alive and healing today because of YOU. ☺️

This Giving Tuesday, please consider supporting our Emergency Vet Fund so we can continue giving lifesaving care to animals who need it most. Thank you for always showing up for them. 💛 Stay posted as we get closer to the big day!
