Winona has a lot to offer in the way of unique experiences. There are many outdoor opportunities involving the bluffs & the river, a thriving arts & music scene, and festivals ranging from Shakespeare to Beethoven to bluegrass. But did you know that Winona has many options for health & wellness that might be considered outside of the norm for many people? There are practitioners in Winona that offer everything from herbal medicine, to acupuncture, to gong baths. That’s right, from plants, to needles, to gongs, oh my! Recently, there was a Healthcare fair showcasing some of the different options available here in Winona, so this month on Culture Clique we will be highlighting a few of those options in order to shed some light and hopefully answer some questions folks might be having about these unique offerings. Today, we hear from Dr. Ariel Barkheim, owner of Rooted Family Medicine. She talks about the importance of a balanced diet, her flower-essence tincture, and the different tools naturopath’s have in their toolbelt. So stay tuned, I’m Max Ackman, with Dr. Ariel Barkheim of Rooted Family Medicine, TODAY on Culture Clique. Original air date: 08/18/22 Culture Clique is written and produced by KQAL FM on the campus of Winona State University and is made possible by a grant from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
