March 20th thru June 20th

Spring brings with it a renewed energy and hope to a world that is giving birth once again. The Wood element is a season of transition that spans from the Spring Equinox on March 20 to the Summer Solstice on June 21. Spring is often a time for renewal where we Spring Clean our homes, offices, digital lives and jump start new projects of creativity and passion.

Note: Sometimes we need a little extra boost to get that Spring in our step.  If you are feeling sluggish, Ask Dr. Skip for a free oral or injectable B12 shot (based on availability) for that energy boost during your next Treatment Session. This is a limited time offer good from March 20th until June 20th as supplies last.

This is the time for renewal.
