Covid-19 Update
Welcome to Lexington Acupuncture for Women! We hope you are healthy and doing well through these challenging times.
We are now re-open for in-person visits!
Your safety is our top priority. After significant preparations, we have acquired the recommended PPE and adopted enhanced exposure prevention policies to be able to offer you the highest quality care along with the enhanced safety and sanitation standards necessary during the age of Covid-19.
While the quality of care will be the same, there will be many logistical changes for the time being, such as:
As Lexington Acupuncture for Women is a women-centric practice focusing on women's health, fertility, and menopause, Dr. Mims is not treating patients with active or suspected Covid-19. If you have symptoms associated with Covid-19, please contact your primary care provider and do not come in for your acupuncture treatment. Last minute cancellation fees will be waived if due to potential Covid-19 symptoms. If you have recovered from Covid-19, have tested negative at least two times, and are seeking help for lingering effects from the disease, please contact our office to discuss treatment options.
For those of you who would prefer virtual appointments, Dr. Mims is currently accepting new patients for Chinese medicine telehealth consultations. One of the few acupuncturists in the Lexington area who is double board certified in both acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, Dr. Mims has years of experience in creating effective, customized herbal formulas for her patients. She is happy to continue to offer telehealth sessions for both new and established patients.
Telehealth visits include customized Chinese herbal medicine recommendations, and may also include acupressure, lifestyle, and dietary guidance. While the health and wellness benefits of acupuncture are well-established, Chinese herbal medicine is a robust therapeutic tradition which pre-dates acupuncture by thousands of years. Many people get significant symptom relief from Chinese herbal medicine, whether in conjunction with acupuncture or on its own.
