Acupuncture for Allergy Relief!

​

Spring is here and I know for many of you that means allergies!  This can manifest as stuffy or runny nose,itchy eyes, sinus pressure and headaches and overall low energy.  Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs can help ease these symptoms and strengthen your immune system so your body does not react to so many pollens and grasses.  In just one treatment, I can relieve sinus pressure and stuffiness, headaches, and itchy eyes.  Chinese herbs can be used in a capsule or liquid form to help in between acupuncture sessions.  This is much healthier way to treat allergies than with over the counter medications that can become addictive and stop being effective.  Please call or email today so we can set you up to get through this allergy season with ease!  Happy Spring Everyone!!

Acupuncture for Self Care

Self care is such an integral part of our quality of life and often the first thing to go when life gets busy. I completely understand, it happens to all of us. My goal in this article is to get you to understand why letting your self care go actually makes you more busy and stressed. If we don't make time for ourselves and our physical and mental health, we get more stressed, don't sleep well and often get sick.


Self care takes many forms and these are some of the tools I use for myself that I wanted to share:


1-Morning meditation: it can be just 5 minutes per day, but meditation calms the nervous system, lets us set intentions for the day and starts our morning out with clarity.


2-Walking outside daily, getting fresh air, moving our bodies. Helps with circulation, stress, and decreases inflammation.


3-Acupuncture, massage, sound healing: these are all modalities that help ease stress, improve sleep and digestion and decrease pain.


4-Yoga, Tai chi or Qi Gong: all very healing easy movement practices that you can learn in your own home(with the help of YouTube) or even better get to a class!


So please try to prioritize your self care and don't get lost in the business of life. Before you know it, another year has flown by and you haven't taken good care of YOU! Try one of these options today and feel better immediately. With regular self care, your health is optimized and you will be more productive and happy!!
