Have you felt the fresh chill in the air? Or noticed the shorter days? We are now in the throes of Late Summer, aka the fifth season of the year, according to Traditional Chinese Medicine. Late Summer bridges the gap between the hot, hazy days of Summer and the crisp days of Fall, spanning mid-August to the Fall Equinox. This period corresponds to the Earth Element and relates to balance, centering, and boundaries.

June 20th marked the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year. In Chinese Medicine, a new ‘external season’ signals a new ‘internal season.’ The change of seasons into Summer generates cyclical health conditions, emotional conditions, and opportunities for growth in body, mind and Spirit.

With a full heart, I am excited to announce the safe reopening of Prinz Acupuncture on June 1st.

Acupuncture was designated as an essential medical service in New York State on May 16th. This timely decision is for good reason: the best way to prevent illness is to be the strongest, healthiest, pain- and stress-free version of yourself. I want Prinz Acupuncture to be the most valuable and safest part of your day outside of your own home. I am committed to providing a secure, healing and restorative environment where you can find relief for your medical concerns.
