Dr. V will be out of the office on medical leave Friday 6/26 through Wednesday 7/8. Please plan your visits in advance accordingly. Thank you!
We’re open!
Here’s how we can help and what we’re doing to keep us all as safe as possible.
All four of our practitioners will be back to full hours by the first of July. Read below about the measures we’re taking to help keep you safe! But if you can’t come in, consider a teleheath appointment. Via phone or secure, private video chat, we can discuss your health concern and develop an at-home treatment plan. So far, this approach has been very effective! Schedule at praxis.fullslate.com.

The safety of our staff and clients is extremely important to us. We are following all CDC, state, City of Chicago, and professional association guidelines. Here’s a list of the measures we’re taking to keep us all safe when you come for your appointments:
We hope you’re all doing okay during these unprecedented times. Take care of yourselves! We miss you and hope to see you again soon. |

Click the link above to visit our online store, where you can purchase services in advance and donate to Praxis’ operating costs and employees. Our massage therapists have lost all of their income since mid March. Mine has been reduced by about 80%. We know you have a lot of good causes to support during this crisis. Thank you for helping us keep Praxis going.
COVID UPDATES
Hello! All of us at Praxis miss you and hope you’re staying safe and sane right now.
- Our fabulous massage therapists are all staying home the next few weeks. We know you miss them, and we’ll send out an announcement when we know for sure what their return date will be.
- ONLINE APPOINTMENTS WITH ME ARE NOW AVAILABLE! We can talk on the phone or use a dedicated healthcare video chat service to discuss: ergonomics while working from home, a therapeutic home exercise program, self care tools to help you manage pain and stress, and much more. (Please book online, the same as you would an in-person visit, and select from one of the new online service options.)
- I am also coming into the office for chiropractic and acupuncture treatment for those in need, but have limited availability right now. I’ll be in on Wednesday this week, and as of right now, I’m planning on one or two days next week, depending on need.
- Additional precautions I’m taking to keep as all safe include: spacing out appointments so that patients don’t have to cross paths in the waiting room; sanitizing the door knobs, bathroom, waiting room and my office before and after every patient; taking everyone’s temp at the start of the appointment; and wearing a mask during your treatment.
- And COMING SOON–functional medicine approaches to STRESS and IMMUNE HEALTH!
