🌸 Hayfever Season is Here 🌸
Spring brings fresh blooms and warmer days, but for many, it also brings itchy eyes, runny noses, and endless sneezing.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, spring belongs to the Wood element and is linked to the Liver and Lung systems. As nature bursts into life, this rising energy can stir up imbalances, making spring a peak season for hayfever. When Liver Qi becomes overactive or stagnant, and the Lungs struggle to disperse and descend Qi smoothly, symptoms like sneezing, itchy eyes, congestion, and runny noses can appear.

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine aim to restore balance by strengthening Lung Qi, soothing the Liver, and dispelling “wind”, the external factor often blamed for allergy flare-ups.
Lifestyle adjustments, like eating light, fresh greens, reducing phlegm-producing foods, and practicing gentle breathing exercises, also support the body through this seasonal shift.

By working with the body’s natural rhythms, TCM doesn’t just mask symptoms, it helps address the root cause, offering relief and resilience throughout hayfever season. 🌿

Relief doesn’t always have to come from antihistamines, natural relief is possible!

How is Your Qi Feeling today?

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Qi is your vital life force and the energy that moves throughout your body, keeping everything in balance.
When Qi flows smoothly, you feel aligned, energised, and resilient. But just like our moods, Qi can shift from day to day, and the flow, or blockage of Qi, can show up in how we feel, think and move.

* Energised Qi - You feel alert, active, and ready to take on the day
* Stuck Qi - Heavy, sluggish, or like something inside isn’t moving
* Calm Qi - centred, grounded, and at ease in your body and mind
* Deficient Qi- Low energy, drained, or running on empty
* Scattered Qi - unfocused, overwhelmed, or mentally “all over the place”
* Overflowing Qi - restlessness, overstimulated, easily irritable

TCM and Acupuncture are used to regulate Qi: moving what is stuck, boosting what is low, reducing and calming what is overflowing and restoring balance so you can get back to feeling like yourself ✨

Which Qi mood are you in today?

If your Qi feels out of balance, acupuncture can help you reset and realign!

Whether you’re new to Chinese Medicine, or have been seeing a TCM Doctor for a while, you may not know what all the terms used in your sessions mean!
We’ve put together a list of the more common terms you may hear in your treatments with us to help you understand your health better! 🌿

⚡️Qi - “Chee” is the vital energy that circulates through the body and is a fundamental concept in TCM, where it is seen as the foundation of health and wellbeing.

🧠 Shen (spirit/mind) - refers to the spirit, mind and consciousness that encompasses the mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of a person.

👣 Channels and Meridians - the pathways through which vital energy ‘Qi’ flows throughout the body. They are link between parts of the body including organs, tissues and physiological functions. Unobstructed flow of Qi through the channel and meridians is essential for maintaining health and balance.

📍 Acupoints - these are the specific energy points/locations on the body used during acupuncture and acupressure.

🎴 Yin and Yang - represents complementary, opposing forces that exist in every aspect of the universe and the human body. They are a dynamic balance, constantly interacting and transforming into one another. In TCM, optimal health is viewed as a harmonious balance of yin and yang, while imbalance is seen to be the root cause of illness.

🧬 Jing/Essence - a vital substance that is inherited at conception and is stored in the kidneys. It is often described as the bodies energy reserve and is associated with physical characteristics like bone and hair health as well as reproductive function. It is fundamental for growth, development, reproduction and overall vitality throughout life.
