What is Qi?
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Qi (pronounced ‘chee’) is your life force, the energy that flows through your body, traveling through your body's meridians, transferring your Qi around, and connecting organs and emotions for a smooth flow and balance.

When your Qi is flowing smoothly you feel energised, calm, and resilient.

When Qi is blocked or deficient, it may show up as fatigue, poor appetite, stress, pain, or lowered immunity.

How can you support your Qi?

Regular acupuncture treatments
Herbal Medicine tailored to suit your type of Qi deficiency.
Frequent movement (like Tai Chi, gentle walks, Pilates, and yoga). Something you enjoy
Nourishing whole foods – including breakfast, as this is the most important meal of the day
Rest and balance

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the gallbladder plays a unique role in both our physical and emotional health. While it stores and excretes bile to support digestion, in TCM its function goes far beyond that.

The Gallbladder’s Key Roles in TCM.

Assists the Liver in ensuring the smooth flow of Qi (energy)
Governs decision-making, clarity, and courage
Influences tendons and joint flexibility
Plays a role in sleep quality

When the gallbladder is balanced, we feel decisive, flexible, and clear-minded. When it’s out of balance, you may notice:
Indecisiveness or timidity
Headaches along the sides of the head
Trouble sleeping, especially waking between 11pm and 1am
Stiff tendons or joint discomfort

Connection to Spring
The gallbladder (paired with the liver) belongs to the spring season. Just as trees push upward and outward with new growth, our Gallbladder Qi gives us the courage and direction to move forward in life.

How TCM Supports the Gallbladder.
Acupuncture to move Qi, clear heat, and ease headaches or tension
Herbal medicine to support digestion and balance Wood energy
Seasonal living — eat fresh greens, stretch daily, and embrace new projects as nature awakens

Spring is the season of growth, clarity, and courage — the perfect time to nourish your Gallbladder and Liver using Acupuncture, TuiNa, and Herbs for a fresh start. 🌸

The Liver in Traditional Chinese Medicine

In TCM, the Liver is so much more than just a physical organ—it’s a vital system that governs the smooth flow of Qi (energy), Blood, and emotions throughout the body.

Key Functions of the Liver in TCM

* Ensures the smooth flow of Qi & emotions
* Stores and regulates Blood
* The smooth flow of the liver supports digestion by aiding the Spleen & Stomach
* Nourishes the tendons, ligaments & eyes

When the Liver is in balance, we feel flexible, calm, and energised. But when it becomes stagnant or overheated, symptoms may appear, such as:

Irritability or mood swings
Headaches or migraines
Fatigue or disrupted sleep
Digestive issues
Menstrual irregularities

How TCM supports the Liver
Acupuncture to move stuck Qi, ease stress, and restore balance.
Herbal medicine to cool excess heat, nourish Blood, and soothe the system.
Lifestyle & dietary guidance, eating more leafy greens, avoiding excess alcohol or greasy foods, and moving your body gently to support flow.

The Liver is deeply connected to our emotions, especially anger and frustration. Supporting Liver health means supporting both your physical and emotional wellbeing.

In Chinese Medicine, each season holds its own unique energy, and Spring is all about renewal, growth, and flow. Just as the trees and flowers begin to blossom, our bodies naturally shift with the season, calling us to move, cleanse, and expand.

Spring = Liver & Gallbladder season
These organs are responsible for keeping Qi (energy) and emotions moving smoothly. When in balance, we feel motivated, clear-minded, and energized.

But when Liver Qi becomes stagnant, you might notice:
Irritability or mood swings
Headaches or tension
Digestive issues
Sluggishness or fatigue

To align with Spring energy, try:
Gentle movement (yoga, stretching, daily walks)
Eating more leafy greens + seasonal produce
Decluttering your space to welcome new beginnings
Acupuncture & herbal medicine to harmonize Qi and support emotional wellbeing

Spring is the perfect time to release what no longer serves you and step into a lighter, more vibrant state of health—inside and out.

Are you ready to flow with the season?
