Snakes have a longstanding connection to powers of healing and transformation.

Look at the symbols often used in health care: The Rod of Asclepius and the Caduceus.

There is also the energy of Kundalini, described as a coiled snake.

The clinic is located on Fer de Lance road, the common name for a South-American snake.

In one version of astrology, there is a 13th constellation: Ophiuchus. Our birthdays fall under this sign.

Serpentarius is an archaic name for the constellation Ophiuchus: the serpent-bearer.

So it was serpents all around, all the way up and all the way down.
