5 weeks and rolling

Hello everyone. Its been 5 weeks and running now that Three Moons Wellness has been open in Waitsfield, Vermont and things are going very well. The phone keeps ringing and we keep helping people with their health. This week, we made progress in many cases from chronic back pain to insomnia, from GERD to gallbladder pain, from allergies to menopause. Its been great being back in the Valley and meeting so many new people that are so receptive to alternative medicine. As it is a "practice", the feedback you provide us is just as valuable as the care we provide you. We really all just work together to improve health in general, so thank you in advance for being great patients.

In 5 short weeks, we have held one Free Community Acupuncture Night which occurred amidst a snow storm that quickly became a blizzard. 5 out of the 6 people who signed up for the event showed up with hats and gloves and sleds in tow. That was not only very encouraging, but very rewarding as 5 people got to try acupuncture for the first time, FREE. We also had some nice generous donations and in the same 5 short weeks, we've raised over $200 for charity. That is very, very cool!

Other stuff that's going on is some preliminary talks of having an integrative health center in central Vermont and I"m excited to be a part of this huge movement towards, what I consider, to be a switch in the paradigm of medicine and could turn out to be revolutionary. So, please stay tuned as that develops.

Thanks for listening and as always, best in health.

Welcome to Three Moons Wellness Public Health Blog

Welcome everyone. This is our first post for Three Moons Wellness Public Blog and its our last post from sunny Boulder, CO. In two short days, we will be heading back east to our home in Vermont. When I left Vermont 6 years ago, I was helping run a small marketing company in Waitsfield, hiking and skiing, and doing a lot of meditation. Six years have gone by and a lot has changed. I became an acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist, married the love of my life (Sarah) and became the happiest parents on the planet to the most darling little moon (Lekha), and I ran a successful acupuncture clinic in the alternative medicine mecca. Sarah, though living in Wisconsin 6 years ago, had a similar transformation prior to our journey and I'm very proud to report that just a few days ago she received her master's degree in Oriental Medicine while also being an amazing mother.

Amidst this whirlwind, there is an amazing calmness in our family as we so eagerly look forward to being in Vermont. As a long time resident of Vermont, I knew when we had our daughter there was no place I would rather raise a child than Vermont. The sense of community I have always felt in Vermont is the reason I really could never leave and its the reason Sarah looks so forward to small town living. So as this dream of ours unfolds before us, we are so excited about bringing all of the knowledge we've obtained in the past 6 years and sharing it with you, our community.

So, what is this blog about? Honestly, we really want you folks to decide that, but our main purpose is to give our patients, friends, family and community a chance to be heard. One of the most exciting things about being a medical practitioner is how much time we get to spend with you. Its unfortunate that the western medical community is not setup to do that, so we want to be the ones providing that. Should you want any advice about your health, a friend's health or your pet's, please post them here and those who get involved will be allowed to answer as well. We are acupuncturists, herbalists, nutritionists, spiritualists and parents. Therefore, that will be our area of expertise, but if there is something we do not know, we will find out for you and for us too! May our journey begin...
