My response : "You do NOT represent all of us. As a healthcare provider, I work to protect life from the moment of conception, and lodge formal complaint against this position."
"It sets the mindset that this is just part of what you do, not something that you just do if there's a problem," massage therapist Erica Nash said. "You don't want to see their career end because there's buildup on stuff, and so we're trying not to let things build up. We're trying never to be going uphill, we're trying to stay steady as long as we can."

Hey, good news! Looks like my account didn't disappear 🥰
I don't have a personal account, just this business one. Facebook is going to disable my access to this account if I don't create a personal one. However, it doesn't let me do that with my business email :(
Because I don't want this account hacked once I no longer have access to it, and because someone has already hacked in to mark me as "closed permanently" - I am going to be deleting this account.
Please just follow me on Google.
I love you all, and wish you best health

Sadly: Insurance trends today 1) cut our pay, 2) raise your copays, and 3) raise your deductible, and 4) cut your benefits. For a real, viable alternative to opioids for pain control.
Vote with your dollars, folks. Insurance companies will get away with paying the least they can.
Every year I drop another insurance company. This year, Kaiser is on the chopping block. Just waiting for them to publish member benefits to see if it's worth my staying in-network. It's January 19, and they have not yet published benefits. But they want us to sign a new contract.
Until I see the actual pay that I will be agreeing to, I will not agree (not sign). I have until the beginning of March, as do they. Therefore, I sadly cannot accept new Kaiser patients until I can check benefits, and agree to what they are offering.
Thank you for your understanding, and for voting with your dollars as to what kind of healthcare matters to you.
That said - Acupuncture and chiropractic are very cheap compared to surgeries and other lifelong therapies. If your insurance does not cover it, consider the overall cost vs benefit statistics in your budget.
Acupuncture use is increasing, but many insurers do not cover it Even though the number of patients who visited an acupuncturist about doubled from 2010 to 2019, and insurance coverage for the treatment increased, most patients continued to pay out of pocket, according to recent data.“Any decrease in opioid prescribing [for chronic pain] is a welcome public...

Sad news -- yet another insurance company has cut my pay. Therefore, I will no longer bill EBMS directly. You can still pay at the time of service, take a superbill, and submit yourself. They will still reimburse you a portion. They have invested the remaining portion into a team of attorneys, apparently, that a not-well-trained-rep threatened me with when I said I would not accept the pay cut (I am not in network and have no contract with them nor Medicare). In what other industry are workers expected to take a pay cut each year??? Sadly, it's bad math to go into health care. If you care about your benefits now, and the future of healthcare in general - I encourage you to file a complaint with the insurance commissioner here if this is your health insurer (City of Salem Employees): https://sbs.naic.org/solar-web/pages/public/onlineComplaintForm/onlineComplaintForm.jsf?state=or&dswid=1414https://sbs.naic.org/solar-web/pages/public/onlineComplaintForm/onlineComplaintForm.jsf?state=or&dswid=1414https://sbs.naic.org/solar-web/pages/public/onlineComplaintForm/onlineComplaintForm.jsf?state=or&dswid=1414
There are enough good quality studies done at this point such that any skepticism that remains must be purely dogmatic in its nature.

So many articles regurgitate the idea of "qi" as some esoteric "energy" or "life force". This is due to an original mistranslation in the 1930's that has somehow taken root and needs to be dispelled.
Qi simply = oxygen, nutrients, cells of the immune system that travel along with the blood. ATP produced by our cells. Impulses travelling along the nerves.
Acupuncture is a medical procedure, grounded in science. Ask me how it can help you to feel better today.

"In the treatments of patients with CNP, TEA treatment showed significant improvement, compared to PT treatment. The improvements in the pain and dysfunction, psychological distress, quality of life, and satisfaction of patients in the TEA group were higher than those of patients in the PT group, and the side effects after TEA treatment were mostly mild. Therefore, TEA can be considered as a useful treatment option for patients with CNP."
