As a society we tend to honor and respect busy-ness, and the hustle to always get things done.

This isn't healthy! This mindset means that we are not only ON mentally all the time, but it creates stress in the body which then can impact all other aspects of our health- our sleep, skin, digestion, reproduction, pain levels and more!

If you are always on the go, and struggling with your health- now may be the time to take a big breath, acknowledge that something needs to change and start to honor and respect the calm and quiet, the peace. If you aren't quite there yet and need assistance then give acupuncture a go!
It can help to calm your whole system and acts like a mini reset to give you some peace and a new starting point.

I get asked this regularly!

I always leave it up to the kids- if they are feeling brave and do it for the first time they usually love it!

This is my daughter when she was about 3yo!

Spring, growth, and change all go hand in hand in Chinese medicine!

Starting those projects you have been putting off, changing jobs, moving house, spring cleaning! It is all about breathing fresh new air into your life.

How is that energy showing up in your world today?

Today is R U OK day!

This is your reminder to reach out and ask those around you how they are going.
Be prepared for honesty, and be there to listen.

We don't need to have stigma around mental health- it is time we normalise mental health issues!

Suffer from itching and need some relief?

This acupuncture point GB31 is called "Wind Market", in Chinese medicine itching is seen as wind inside the body (because it moves a lot and causes discomfort as it goes)- so this is a brilliant point to help calm the wind and thus itching!!

I know most of my posts are targeted towards women- but I would genuinely love to hear from the men on this one!

I am SO sick of the narrative of "you are a woman, you just have to deal with period pain". This is NOT true, so please do not buy into it.

While it is super COMMON to have period pain, it doesn't mean it is normal. It is a symptom that your lifestyle is way out of balance, and it is your body trying to let you know something needs to change.
So rather than trying to control or go against your cycle- acupuncture and Chinese medicine help to work WITH you to help support a more balanced menstrual cycle.

What that change may be could be SO many different things, but remember that you don't have to try to navigate this alone.
As an acupuncturist it is my job to help you figure that out- to go through your lifestyle, deiet, and other habits that may be contributing to your pain.
Then usually with time and change, your period will start to shift - our body doesn't WANT to be in a state of imbalance, so when we are able to to make adjustments that help it get back in balance in just at the chance- and you beenfit from less discomfort!
Win win I say!
