Private appointments available with Ryan
You can now schedule private treatments with Ryan if you would like your own time in a room at the clinic. Treatments will be more comprehensive and will offer more time to answer and discuss questions or interest you may have. Treatments will be done on both the front and back sides of the body with multiple concerns being addressed. Other healing modalities will be used which we do not have time for in the community clinic setting such as massage, cupping or e-stim needling when appropriate. Please ask about additional availability and information. Treatments will be 75-90 minutes and will cost $150.00.
San Rafael Foot Care
WHY FOOT CARE?
Whether you are a senior, disabled, homebound or someone with chronic foot issues, the care
of your feet is essential in helping maintain mobility and an active lifestyle. It reduces the risk of
pain and immobility associated with delayed foot care, promotes a sense of well being and
independence and decreases fall risk. My goal as a Nurse and Certified Foot Care Specialist is
to make available regular affordable basic foot care, education, assessment and when
necessary, referrals for advanced foot care for everyone in Marin County regardless of age. I
can assist with corns, calluses, thick difficult to cut or extra long toenails, minor wounds,
hammertoes and ingrown toenails. I will also assess your footwear and make recommendations
based on that assessment. A foot care appointment lasts about 45 minutes and is held either
in your home or in a clinic setting. If you or someone you love or care for is in need of foot care
please call me at 415-250-8870. Fees can be negotiated for low income clients. For more
information see my website at sanrafaelfootcare.com.
Amy is adding new hours on Saturdays from 9:30-12:30AM to increase our availability.

Maine Lights
One of my favorite part of visiting Maine’s coast was the amazing preservation they have done of their network of nearly 70 lighthouses along the inlets and bays of the state. Working in conjunction with the local community, State Parks system and National Coast Guard they have done a wonderful job of keeping the lights going and buildings maintained.
Local activist have raised money many times to save this iconic landmarks and as a visitor of the state of Maine I was so grateful for their efforts. Each light was unique and I hope to make it back and visit many more of them.
Grateful for our National Parks – Acadia National Park and Cape Cod National Seashore
I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to visit some of the great parks on the Eastern Seaboard this summer while traveling with my family. Spending time in the different regions of the United States is such a interesting way to experience the diverse viewpoints of our country’s citizens. It is easy when living in Marin/San Francisco to feel insulated in your beliefs and values and to have the misconception that the majority of people believe in the same things or share the same ideals.
While I do believe that we all desire the same basic goals and dreams for ourselves and our children we certainly have a wide array of ideals on how to got to those goals and achieve those dreams. People in once powerful lumbar economies in Maine and New Hampshire have different needs politically than I may have as a urbanite in San Francisco.
Men and women in the Portugese fishing communities of Cape Cod and Provincetown have wishes for their livelihood that I have to recognize may conflict with my desires to preserve more of the oceans and shorelines.
It is really important to see our environmental world through the eyes of those who work the resources in the environment and contrast that with those of the conservationist. In the end it is clear that we are both outdoor enthusiast but with conflicting views on how best to manage our natural world.
