Updated Insurance & Billing at the clinic

March 29, 2021 By Jackie Fields Leave a Comment

To our beautiful patients,

In these difficult times, it is clear to all that small offices and businesses are struggling. We love what we do and it is very much HEART work. With all that’s occurred the Healing Gardens has had to simplify billing in our office. At The Healing Gardens, we provide exceptional integrative/primary care with lengthy appointments. We strongly believe we are educators and when a patient is given time, education, and choices all of this takes longer. Unfortunately, the insurance model does not cover our provider’s time adequately. So like all other integrative clinics, we will need to minimize the insurance plans we do work with and remain in-network with. We, as always, will work hard to bill all services such as labs and testing using your plan. Going forward we will continue billing for United, UMR and Cigna insurance. For all other plans we will ask for payment at the time of service and we will provide you with the superbills so you can submit to your insurance. Many of you have already been doing this without issues, so we feel confident in continuing to assist our patients if they need help with this process.

We express our deepest gratitudes to our patients and we thank you for your understanding and ability to flow and adapt with us.


Your Healing Gardens Team,

Lifestyle Recommendations during the COVID-19 Pandemic

February 17, 2021 By Jackie Fields Leave a Comment

We are coming up on ONE YEAR of the pandemic. I know we all have pandemic fatigue. We are on the home stretch and we have either had Covid or are getting the vaccine. Here are some reminders of things you can do to keep your mind and body healthy. For well rounded health, focus on these 5 pillars of wellness:

NUTRITION:

  • Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. Aim for 9-13 servings per day of a variety of types for a wide array of phytonutrients to enhance the gut microbiome.
  • Consume dietary fiber, a minimum of 28-35 grams daily, preferably from whole foods.
  • Eat fermented vegetables or other probiotic-containing foods to maintain epithelial health and gut barrier function.
  • Reduce or avoid immune offenders such as added sugars and salt, high-glycemic foods (including processed carbohydrates), and excessive saturated fat.

STRESS REDUCTION/MANAGEMENT:

  • Monitoring stress levels through biofeedback markers such as heart rate variability (HRV) may assist in knowing when to implement stress management strategies such as breath work and meditation.
  • Practicing stress-modifying techniques on a regular basis can result in greater resilience when confronted with stressors.

SLEEP:

  • Good quality, sufficient quantity (seven to eight hours) and adequate deep phasic bouts of sleep is of utmost importance as part of immune maintenance, as well as during times of recovery from illness.
  • It is advised to have good sleep hygiene and maintain consistent sleep hours by turning off screens, ensuring the room is cool, quiet, and dark, and setting reminders to go to bed on time.

EXERCISE:

  • A personalized exercise program can be designed even during homestay by utilizing features in one’s home environment, including apps, the internet, and technology, or by taking the opportunity to experience the calming, immune-supportive effects of being in nature (while, at the same time, social distancing).

SOCIAL FACTORS/CONNECTION:

  • Encourage reduced exposure to interactions perceived as hostile and non-supportive and, at the same time, emphasize and encourage spending time with people who are positive or affirming.
  • For those people who may be lonely or isolated, as well as those who may be at increased risk of immune compromise, recommend regular social connection as a routine. Ideas might include participating virtually in local community events or outside time with friends.

With love and gratitude,

Dr. Jackie Fields
