By Trudi Rumball, Registered Acupuncturist  It’s a new year, and a great time to form some new habits. One of the things we see a lot in this business is a rush in November and December to use up benefits. This results in a very busy clinic, which is great for us, but leaves clients with not much choice for appointment times. And while compounded treatments can be beneficial, if you don’t have major acute health complaints, it is even more beneficial to work out a maintenance plan with your care providers. This is what we, as therapists, strive for.
