@jasonleitch The BAcC let our Scottish colleagues reopen - why are these safe and essential healthcare providers to stay closed, when pubs and hairdressers can stay open?

Thursday Thoughts...
Acupuncture influences the body in many ways.
1. The nervous system- muscles, nerves, organs
2. Cardiovascular system- blood flow, hormones
3. Endocrine system- adrenal regulation
4. Immune system- STRENGTHENS the immune system
