Welcome Back!!

Wuji Acupuncture and Herbal is open. We are following COVID guidelines to keep you safe and germ free. Wuji has moved to 507 4th St. South Jax Beach, FL 32250.
We are located just minutes to the beach!
For those who drive a little further to see us and don’t get to the beach often, here is your chance. It is a great way to integrate your treatment before resuming daily activities. If you have children, I do have a larger space for them to quietly hang out.
This has come up for those who would like to bring their kiddos to the beach after a treatment.

Covid-19 Update Clinic Closure

Due to recent government executive orders, Wuji Acupuncture and Herbal Clinic will be closed until May 1st, unless otherwise posted. I will contact each of you to reschedule. I am still accepting new patients for the month of May.

We are still offering the following:

Herbal consults and prescriptions as this can be done via phone and then mailed to you. I

I thank all of you for your continued patience and support during this time. We are all in this journey together, and there is a lot of uncertainty and many of us have either been directly affected by this virus or have family members affected.

Rest assured, as soon as I can open the doors, I will do so. Thank-you for all the reaching out and support I have been receiving. I truly appreciate all of you! Stay healthy, and if you would like learn more about that or how to boost your immune system, please reach out.

Food as Medicine-Chicken & Mushroom Soup

Sup-2

Mushroom Chicken Soup

Indications: Boosts Qi & Blood deficiency leading to fatigue, dizziness, poor appetite, sore knees and lumbar, insomnia

Boosting Qi and Blood= Nourishing your vital flow of energy in your body and boosting red blood cells

Ingredients:

2 free range drumsticks, chicken thighs would work as well

**10 small fresh shitake mushrooms

1 TBLS cooking wine

3 slices of ginger

6 cups of water

Instructions:

Cut drumsticks into one inch cubes, put in hot boiling water for two minutes to remove excess blood and scum. Rinse the chicken in cold water. (I don’t feel it is necessary to cut up the drumsticks. Just be aware of small bones or use boneless chicken.)

Put the chicken in a soup pot and bring the rest of the ingredients and prepared chicken in soup pot and bring to a boil then continue simmering for 40 mins.

Garnish with Gou Qi Zi aka Goji Berries and add ½ Tsp of salt at the end

Serve as warm meal. Once a day

** If you detest mushrooms because of texture, you can boil them and then strain them out of the water and just use the mushroom broth.

Community Acupuncture

Community Acupuncture is every Saturday 10am-2pm, No appointment required

Price: $25, $30, or $35  choose your price tier on what you can afford

Community Acupuncture is a cost effective way to try out or receive acupuncture treatments. I treat up to five people at once in reclining chairs in our Zen den. You just come in and take a seat. Community  acupuncture has grown into a community of its own. We often like to sit and talk before or after treatments and share a pot of tea. Many of our regulars have grown quite close.

The difference between community acupuncture and private appointments are the services offered and the areas of the body that I treat. Both options provide high quality treatments. If you are unsure if you need more individualized care, I am more than happy to talk with you to determine your needs and services required.

There are a few Saturdays yearly Community Acupuncture closes. I make that announcement on both my Facebook page: Wuji Acupuncture & Herbal Clinic or on Jacksonville Meet-up group: Reclaiming You

 

 

The Importance of Patient Homework

Homework? But, why?? Because you like you!

One way to keep your treatments working longer and to achieve personal health gains and inner balance quicker is to do some homework. It has been my experience that patients who go home and do their “homework” often will heal faster. As disclaimer, not everyone will get results. Patience is really a virtue. I know that sometimes that statement is really irritating, but it is true. I bring this up because this relates to your state of health and how long it took to reach of the state of health you are in. Continue reading “The Importance of Patient Homework”
