La Clinica is helping patients live their healthiest lives possible through a wellness approach to care offered across our community health centers.
During this time of coronavirus concern, La Clinica has paused complementary services including acupuncture, massage, and physical therapy. In-person classes and groups also are paused, and some instructors are offering online versions (see schedule at right). These classes are available to all La Clinica patients. We’ve also posted wellness tips, resources, videos, and audio recordings for you below.
