Inflammation + PMS = The Perfect Storm. How does inflammation affect your period? You’d be surprised. Here’s the deal. Your hormones such as progesterone and estrodiol have receptors in all your body’s tissues. When your body is in constant inflammation it produces cytokines (a part is the inflammatory response) which can interrupt the hormone receptors. Cytokines slow the response of your ovarian follicles to FSH, impede ovulation and block receptors to progesterone and ...thyroid hormones ( which make us feel good) and can hyperstimulate your receptors for estrogen and testosterone (which we don’t want too much of!). So what can cause chronic inflammation? * smoking *stress *lack of exercise *lack of sleep *unhealthy gut microbiome *environmental toxins *inflammatory foods *alcohol So how does this affect your cycle? It can directly cause your body to produce less progesterone (which you need to counteract estrogen fluctuation) and GABA (which we need to enhance your mood) AND causes excess estrogen. Side note on estrogen - it’s the highs and lows of this that cause bloating, breast pain, headaches, night sweats, and more. It’s the crashing up and down that makes us feel it physically and emotionally. Hence the perfect storm. What can you do? Talk to your Acupuncturist about how we can help you tackle some of the causes of inflammation in your life. Some of these you can tackle on your own and some need a little extra help:) questions? Contact us! Raychel Sanner Photography Info based on ‘The Period Repair Manual’

Ski Season Warmup Drill Happy New Year!! I hope the first few days of 2021 are treating you well. Is getting back into your favorite sports a goal for you this year?? Why not add injury prevention to that resolution by properly warming up before you head out!

These can be done at home or in the ski hill parking lot! 5 minutes and you're good to go! Aim for 5-10reps (each side)or until you feel the ease of tension. Following along in the videos for description and cues. 1) leg swings - front to back 2) leg swings - side to side. 3) standing hip openers 4) side bends 5) torso rotations 6) low back extensions 7) shoulder circles HMU with any questions!

"What is compassion? Compassion literally means: suffering together. When we feel and understand distress in others, compassion gives us the courage and wisdom to do something about it."
