Very Well Acupuncture holds itself to the highest standards of patient comfort and safety. Those goals have been paramount throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, and we are proud that there has been no suspected case of Covid transmission in our office. Our safety policy has been devised and updated according to the prevailing wisdom of local and national health authorities, and it surpasses their recommendations.

• You no longer required to wear a face covering while in the Very Well offices, however we do encourage you to do so if you have reason to be especially concerned about your health and that of others around you.

• Your practitioner will use their best judgement about whether to wear a mask during your visit. They will absolutely wear one at your request.

• You are encouraged to maintain full vaccination status for Covid and flu at whatever level and interval is recommended by local and national health authorities and your personal physician.

• Your practitioner will be fully vaccinated for Covid and flu.

• Professional-grade air purifiers will be running in the Very Well suite at all times.

• Your practitioner will wash or sanitize their hands between every interaction.

• All equipment and surfaces will be sanitized after use.

• Where applicable, Very Well uses only single-use sterilized sheets and pillow covers. We no longer offer blankets, which cannot be washed between patients, although we do have other options for warming you if it is chilly.

• It goes without saying that acupuncture needles and other tools are sterile and single-use, and discarded appropriately as hazardous waste.

• Patients who are experiencing viral symptoms are required to cancel and reschedule their appointments. This is the only exception to our cancellation policy of requiring 24 hours notice to cancel an appointment.
