CONGRATS!!!

Sandra McClellan LAc is the winner of the Minnetonka Half Marathon~May 2, 2010.

The race was from Wayzata to Excelsior on a grueling course full of hills with 1384 female runners.

She set a PR of 1:24:57 and covered the 13.1 miles!

Great race and a great day.  I guess those Chinese Herbs do help;)

But on a more serious note the race and her efforts she dedicated to her late~Father Blair  and uncle-in-law Michael.

Blair Piechowski, was Sandra’s constant source of support and strength growing up and cheering her on but he never saw his daughter win a track or cross-country race. (Kinda tough when you race against Olympian Carrie Tollefson in High School).

Cheers,

Blair and Uncle Mike

PS…this post is from Mason, her loving husband, because Sandra would never tell anyone her story and victory.

That really isn’t what we mean.  This is a super fantastic post in regards to Chinese Medicine and how we get pigeon-holed.

With the recent insurance/health reform, Sanjay from CNN even says that just because you have an insurance card doesn’t mean there will be a better outcome.  He emphasizes the importance of preventative care medicine.  I guess I would like to coin ourselves that we are in the business of lifestyle medicine.  Sure we do acupuncture but much of what we do is counsel people on better habits and how to make it work for them.

This is a good read and a very pragmatic approach to the “mystery” of acupuncture.  Think of our medicine as an observational point of view.  You do a treatment whether it be acupuncture, herbs, dietary changes and you see the response.  Over the years these results have been documented and have become more of a sense of wisdom than hard facts.  This is difficult for those that desire an evidence-based approach to treatment.  Just as the sun rises you can assure someone that this is the outcome when you do certain treatments.  And we can say this by experience that has transcended generations for hundreds of years.

Just in case you need evidence at our office in Chanhassen, Minnesota we have some technology that can read your meridian energetics.  You can finally see what all this “Qi” stuff is about.

We have some super high-quality supplements in from Douglas labs.

So stop shopping at Target, GNC, etc…

Throw that stuff out.

We have multi’s, Cal/Mag, COQ10, Hawthorne, and anything else you can imagine.

In the hundreds of patients we have seen, Sandra and I got fed up with sending people to other places to buy sub-quality stuff.  And there are too many wasting money on binders and glues that hold this stuff together, thus your body can’t absorb all the “goods” listed on the labels.
