For when the 'People's elbow' gets sore But seriously, acupuncture for the win!

A lil self-cupping-care is in order for me today An ancient therapy dating back to 300 AD, cupping treats the stagnation and blockage of qi, fluids, lymph, and blood which result in the experience of pain. I generally use the glass variety cups with to create the suction, or these silicone guys for going around corners, and for instant relief. Gotta get that QI flowing!

Happy Chinese New Year. Year of the Metal ox The Ox is the animal that symbolises that if which "You reap what you sow" This is the year to decipher what you want to create, because the ox works on things that take the slow and steady time to create it!

I was so touched today when a very sweet patient of mine brought me in this beauty. They said it was a money plant for wealth, and not only the kind that's in your pocket I love it!

Even Rango is quite keen to learn about TCM.

Wow! A year has gone by so fast. I feel truly blessed to have been and continue to be part my fantastic clients' health journeys. I will continue to be in awe of the powers of Chinese and Herbal medicines and am excited to continuously dive deeper into the gifts that they provide us Here's to another year and counting!

Try this Acupressure point! NÈIGUN or Pericardium-6 (PC-6) This acupressure point is also called the Inner Pass. Adding pressure to it can unbind the chest and improve your qi (chi). It is known to help regulate the heart and calm the spirit as well as harmonize the stomach and alleviate nausea and vomiting. NÈIGUN is located by placing three fingers on your wrist, starting at the crease line. Press just below the third finger in between the tendons. Its in the same area as where seasickness bands are worn. Of course you can book online and I'll place an Acupuncture needle in PC-6 for ya
