As an active member of the TCM* community, I continue to participate in a number of national and international forums to discuss ways in which Oriental Medicine can be of service during this pandemic.
Chinese Medicine stands on four pillars: Self-cultivation, a Healthy Lifestyle (nutrition and exercise), Acupuncture/Moxibustion, and Herbal Medicine. The first two create the conditions for a robust immunity, while Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine can bring us back home in times when we go astray.
You, as the captain of your body-ship, have the power and the choice to practice a healthy lifestyle. My offering is to provide support for this. Importantly, Herbal Medicine** can be very effective in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19, especially in the early stages and in the recovery period. You can make your remote consultation appointment followed (or not) by a face to face acupuncture session.
Other resources to help boost and maintain a healthy immune system:

Stay Healthy, calm and trust your instincts!
Warmly
