Hang in there Acupuncturists!

Our friends at Acupuncture Media Works shared this great post:

There are so many areas of our lives that have been put on hold, and I understand that many practitioners have closed their practice, while others remain open.

I want to express that we (the family at Acupuncture Media Works), appreciate each and every one of you!

Your community NEEDS you now more than ever!

I have heard that some of you are hunkering down and have closed your practice.

If this is you, I'm sorry, I know how tough it must be!

BUT...I URGE YOU don’t just sit there and do nothing for your practice...here’s why...

Because when the COVID-19 dust settles, and it will, we want you to remain viable and progressing your practice forward.

Just because you are in voluntary or involuntary quarantine, doesn’t mean your practice should 100% stop.

We have received a number of inquiries from members asking AAAOM to tell them to close or stay open. Unfortunately, these decisions need to take into account state and local variables.
AAAOM encourages Acupuncturists to use their professional judgment to determine when, where, and how to provide care, with the understanding this is not the optimal environment for care, for anyone involved.

AAAOM has been receiving many emails daily concerning the Corona Virus and we are doing our best to answer each and every email as soon as possible. Stay safe and keep updated!
