Conditions imposed by the ongoing pandemic are very stressful for many people. Isolation and insomnia, compounded by lack of outdoor exercise, sunlight, and fresh air, impact us differently. At Acupractic Natural Healing Center, Dr. Oskardmay understands the issues and concerns people have and strives to provide safe, effective care and support. A licensed chiropractic physician and licensed acupuncturist, she enjoys helping people develop new strategies for dealing with the Covid health crisis’s challenges.
Some people suffer from depression during this trying time. Depression is an illness that can impact all aspects of a person’s being. Not the same as sadness, depression disables a person’s motivation and can influence their immune system and other vital faculties. While not a clinical psychiatrist, Dr. Oskardmay can help provide non-drug healing treatments to support persons suffering from depression. These treatments could include acupuncture along impacted meridians, massage to loosen tight, sore muscles, chiropractic adjustments to mobilize vertebral subluxations, health education, and other suggestions to change life patterns. If you or a loved one has suffered depression during these dark days, health counseling by Dr. Oskardmay with chiropractic and acupuncture therapy might be able to help.
Insomnia is an ailment that robs people of crucial recuperative sleep. During times of upheaval such as these, when schedules are awry, kids are home, work is nonexistent, or from home, outlets are few, insomnia affects us more. While drug therapies may help some, that is not a solution they want or even need for others. Dr. Oskardmay can help steer people to nonpharmaceutical solutions to impart better shut-eye. Additionally, acupuncture treatment is a recognized assistive insomnia remedy. Used by millions worldwide to improve sleep and other health problems, acupuncture is a safe, effective insomnia solution for many. In combination with relaxing massage and aromatherapy, this ancient treatment can help where other cures have failed.
Dr. Oskardmay understands that the fear of contracting covid19 and its variants keeps many from going outside. Her firm belief that going out to get fresh air, even to exercise in the outdoors, is imperative. Many people take supplements to mitigate the adverse effects of low-sunlight exposure; these pills may help but cannot provide the full health benefits from natural sunlight. Talk with Dr. Oskardmay about ways to improve natural sunlight exposure during these trying times to improve health in many ways.
Anyone who counts their steps has surely noticed a diminished step count from being home-bound. We’re not going to the store, the library, the park, church, or work as much as before, if at all. This lack of normal daily walking means we’re getting less exercise in this way. Additionally, most aren’t visiting a gym right now and, unless they have an effective home gym workout program, they aren’t getting the health benefits of regular exercise. Weakened musculature destabilizes the core, sagging shoulders feel painful when used, and the back suffers from inactivity. A visit to the offices of Dr. Oskardmay can help patients get back on track and learn new ways to incorporate a fitness regimen safely and with minimal disruption to their everyday lives.
