We’re Green for You & Yours & Ours
What goes around comes around. When it comes to choices regarding dental/medical materials, cleaning, building/office supplies, Groton Wellness Center takes it to heart and we let our collective consciousness be our guide.
Being ever mindful of the world around us, we use only all-natural, biodegradable, non-toxic materials in everything we do. We buy local and recycled whenever possible. Your wellbeing — and the wellbeing of the planet — depends on it. Consider it the first phase of detoxification!
