We’re back! After a long cold winter of more work and less time for blogging, the MyAcuDoc blog is back. Jeanie Marie Kraft, who did an excellent job writing most of the blog posts last year, has moved her acupuncture blogging to her own site: www.fourpawsacupuncture.com. I’ll be picking up this blog, and I look forward to contributing more articles, news and updates on acupuncture, Chinese medicine, holistic health care and related environmental issues.

As most of my local patients already know, I’ve moved my practice. I am now located in the Museum Place Mall in Salem, MA (2 East India Square, Ste. 112). This new location has several benefits, and the most important of these (to patients) is parking. There are several lots surrounding the mall, and also a multi-level parking structure. For those interested, I have
pictures of the new practice space here.

I’ve also added a new feature to the MyAcuDoc.com website: a calendar. As my clinic hours will change somewhat over the summer, this new calendar has the most up-to-date information about clinic days.

Finally, in concert with Earth Day, the Salem Gazette printed an article of mine, “Green Therapies: How your health care choices impact the environment.” As we become more aware of climate and environmental issues, our health care choices have more influence than we might think on the such basic issues as clean water. Acupuncture is one of the most environmentally friendly health care therapies. It’s good for you, and helps the environment.
