Extended – Free Holistic Outreach Clinic
From Julia Rose:
“When a community experiences this level of devastation, the physical, emotional, and energetic post traumatic stress continues long after the infrastructure has been repaired. As things begin to calm down externally and the mess the hurricane left behind gets under control, the initial shock and frenzy begins to subside. People can then begin to focus on their physical and emotional well-being. This is perhaps the most crucial time for us to provide our services as healers. And so, we decided it is important to continue the Outreach Clinics for another three weeks.”
So – in response to the need, we are extending the Disaster Relief Clinic for three more weeks after October 2nd, still at Parish Hall, from 3-6PM on Sundays. Here are the dates for upcoming clinics:

IRENE: Holistic ‘MASH’ unit sets up in Phoenicia

PHOENICIA — When it comes to the aftermath of a flood, there’s a lot to do and it’s hard to do it.
Lives have been saved, roads are being repaired, and emergency food supplies are being distributed. But coping with the damage is difficult, both for those affected by Tropical Storm Irene and those who answered their cries for help.
That’s what Woodstock chiropractor Emily Bobson was thinking when she and her colleague, massage therapist Angel Ortloff, decided that a little healing can go a long way.
So they set up a free clinic in the parish hall of St. Francis De Sales Roman Catholic Church on Main Street.
Massage tables are lined up like one would see in a makeshift Mobile Army Surgical Hospital (MASH), and there’s a circle of chairs over in a corner, set up for folks to just talk. Some food is available, the doors are wide open, and blissful music flows out into the muddy street.
Anyone who walks in gets some form of treatment. Chiropractic care is available, as is massage therapy, Reiki and a form of acupuncture. A mental health therapist is on hand, chatting with a few people about stress. The mood in the wood-paneled hall is serene, and the cost is free.
“We just wanted to find a way to do our part,” said Bobson, who recognized that people in the region need some tender loving care besides dry socks, underwear, canned goods and candles.
The team of healers has ties to this Shandaken hamlet. Energy healer Lorry Salluzzi hails from nearby Lanesville and often donates help at the Phoenicia Healing Arts Center.
Salluzzi answered the call sent out by Bobson, who hopes to rack up a cornucopia of healers to meet the needs of hundreds in the days ahead.
“We are calling all local chiropractors, massage therapists, and anyone with hands/hearts,” Bobson said. “We are gathering together to provide services for the communities that have been struck the hardest by Hurricane Irene.”
After a well-received first day Monday, Bobson said she is working out what hours and days would work best.
“After speaking and visiting many disaster site locations it was recommended that Monday would be the best day to do this for the community of Phoenicia as well as the surrounding communities,” she said.
Bobson can be reached at (845) 901-4035. Anyone in need of healing services or healers who wish to participate in the clinic are encouraged to call.
