I am so excited to announce that my dream of bringing Turning Pointe Acupuncture to its new home in the Mt. Tabor neighborhood is now a reality. The new clinic space is housed in a historic mid-century modern building that has been in operation as a neighborhood medical clinic since 1947. A beloved chiropractor and naturopathic doctor saw nearly 80 patients per day and delivered hundreds of babies over the years. The clinic's original doctor even performed minor surgeries on-site!
Human beings have an intrinsic and powerful connection to sunlight that evolved over thousands of years. Before the advent of electricity we were bound by the constraints of daylight, and our sleep cycles followed suit. But today, electricity and technological stimulation allow our minds and bodies to be active after sundown, which can wreak havoc on our health. Many hormonal processes in our body are literally hardwired to be orchestrated by sunlight and the absence of sunlight. It is no surprise that adhering to a normal sleep pattern is therefore highly important to maintaining optimal health.
