TeleMedicine
What is TeleMedicine?
According to the American Telemedicine Association (ATA), TeleMedicine (or telehealth) is defined as technology-enabled health and care management that extends beyond capacity and access. In other words, it’s healthcare that can be provided through technology that overcomes certain limitations, like the inability to receive care face-to-face, for example. While TeleMedicine has been around for a long time, it has recently grown in popularity during the emergence of COVID-19.
How can Parris Wellness help?
You don’t have to see us in-person to see the benefits of our treatment. We utilize the entirety of Traditional Chinese Medicine for continued care through:
- Acupressure guidance
- Meridian massage instruction
- Meditation
- Dietary advice
- Herbal supplement advice and prescriptions
- Exercise suggestions
We can help with many conditions via TeleMedicine. Because of the current state we are in due to COVID-19, you may be experiencing a spike in anxiety, stress, sleeplessness and digestive issues — these are all things we can help with. Plus, as this season of summer persists with pollen in the air, you may be experiencing allergy, cold and flu symptoms, which we can also help you curb.
If you’re not sure if we can help your symptoms, please call us at (646) 320-8806 or email us at hello@parriswellness.com.
How do you book a TeleMedicine appointment?
You book a TeleMedicine appointment through our booking page just like normal. Currently, we are offering TeleMedicine appointments as well as in person care.
What happens during a TeleMedicine appointment?
For a TeleMedicine appointment, you will need a computer or smartphone with camera capabilities and internet access. When your appointment is confirmed, you will be given a video link to our Zoom platform. You will need to download the Zoom app. 10 minutes before your scheduled appointment you will be sent an invite to join the session.
During your appointment, I will be ready to listen to your health concerns and possibly look at your area(s) of trouble, just like a normal in-person appointment. Once we have an idea of your health concerns we can strategically develop a treatment plan customized for your health concerns.
Pricing and Payment
We know this is a difficult time for a lot of people right now for a variety of reasons, including financially. We don’t want you to have to choose between your budget and your health, so we are TeleMedicine appointments at a discounted rate:
60 minutes: $75
Payment will be taken at the conclusion of your appointment.
Is TeleMedicine safe?
Yes! TeleMedicine is designed to help patients who need care but are not able to come to our clinic for unperson care. The sessions are HIPAA complaint and conducted in a private setting just like our in person sessions.
