HELLO AGAIN EVERYONE!
Please note: Information in this message is accurate as of this writing, approximately 8am on Thursday, March 24, 2022.
We hope this message continues to find you well! The world continues to evolve and manage the C19 situation as have we at ELEVATE Chiropractic.
As licensed health care providers in New York State, our continued priority is and always has been YOUR HEALTH AND SAFETY. As such, we want to reiterate our procedures and commitment to protecting you, as well as our staff and doctors.
The protocols we have in place based on guidance from the New York State Health Department and the CDC which are our usual and standard protocol have evolved.
The most notable change is the NYS DOH and CDC edict that masks are optional in the office. This will continue until further advisement is received. You are welcome to continue to wear a mask at your comfortability and we do ask that if you have a cold or allergies, to wear a mask when in the office.
As per previous restrictions, if you have an upcoming appointment and you have had close contact with someone who has contracted C19, please call us prior to your appointment. Further, if you have a fever, cough, muscle pains, malaise or loss of smell beyond a usual level, please first call your PCP’s office. If you do not have a PCP please call The Monroe County Department of Health at 585-753-5555! They will advise you on how to proceed. THEN, when it is feasible, give us a call to reschedule your appointment.
A note regarding immunity: As you know, it is your body’s electrical system (the nervous system) that controls and optimizes your immunity. Your nervous system is like an air traffic controller that directs the army of the immune system in detecting and eliminating invaders. The more powerful your immune system, the less likely you are to get sick. Simple. As you probably have guessed, when your immune system is not working the way it should, it’s really no different than having a 100 watt light bulb operating at 50% – as if it were stuck halfway on the dimmer switch. Does that make sense? We are not suggesting that NeuroStructural Chiropractic Adjustments (which is what we do in our office) is going to ward off coronavirus, or any other virus for that matter. What we are telling you is that it’s completely reasonable to suggest that a perfectly tuned nervous system can optimize your immunity and not only provide some shielding from coronavirus, but very likely all invaders. The other side of the equation is providing your body with what it needs functionally and nutritionally. You’re heard it a thousand times…get enough sleep, stay away from sugary foods and eat a well balanced diet, drink a lot of water, etc.
As we continue to navigate this situation, we will be in contact via our here, Facebook, email and via text and phone regarding changes in schedule and availability. Our offices have been and will continue to remain open normal hours unless informed otherwise. Thank you for being a loyal patient. As always, if you have any questions please ask.
Perhaps most importantly, please keep an eye on yourselves, your family and your neighbors. IF YOU NEED HELP, we are a family, we here for you and will do whatever we can to assist you so please do not hesitate to ask.
Yours in Chiropractic,
Dr. Charlie and Dr. Stephanie
