As a reminder, our bodies are super good at fighting off colds and flus in general.
The best things you can do for yourself is:
- Eat well/regularly
- Stay well hydrated
- Get plenty of rest
- Get some exercise/ movement
- Continue to stay engaged socially
Your body will do the rest. Our immune systems and our whole bodies are really good at what they do.
How do I take precautions while going about my day?
- Stay home if you're sick. This includes your appointments at our clinic.
- Wash hands frequently with soap and water, for 30 seconds.
- Sneeze and or cough into your elbow - not your hands.

What should I do if I am well?

- Continue with your daily activities, go on errands, go to work, go have fun, and enjoy life!
- There are many herbs and supplements to help boost your immune system. Consider making an appointment for an herbal consultation.
What do I do if I think I'm sick?
- Cancel your appointment. We're not equipped to test for COVID-19 or isolate patients.
- If you have any of the following symptoms: fever, cough, shortness of breath, have been in close contact with someone who has a confirmed COVID-19 infection or traveled in affected regions, then please contact the County Health Department.

- In the meantime, please keep yourself home.
What we're doing in our clinic:
