If Invasion Day fell on my clinic day, I wouldn’t see patients - Monday should be a national day of mourning and we should all be learning what we didn’t learn at school. I strongly encourage all businesses to take a stand and actually speak their values 🖤💛❤️

If things aren’t going well with your skin care routine, bring it all back to basics.

Morning is a quick cleanse, vitamin c, moisturiser, sunscreen.

Evening is a double cleanse, moisturiser, and maybe a retinol.

That’s it.

This is the minimal skincare routine that I get patients to go back to when they’ve been acting like mad scientists with their routines and now they can’t figure out what’s not working because they’ve suddenly got a 14 step routine.

Note that this ISN’T the basic routine I recommend when your skin totally loses it and becomes red, irritated, or reactive! That routine has no vitamin c and especially no retinol!

Why are painful periods better for drinking warm and hot water, instead of cold or iced water?

In Chinese Medicine, drinking warm and hot water is essential for a smooth flow and pain free menstrual cycles. This is because Qi and energy is already weakened during your menstrual cycle - you’re already losing blood and fatigue hits hard - so using energy from forcing your Spleen to warm up cold drinks causes everything to go even further askew.

When we keep our energy in check, we then have a smooth flow of Qi - and when there’s a smooth flow of Qi, we experience pain free periods 💕

Now, does this mean warm water is going to cure PCOS or endometriosis? Hell no. But hot water won’t make it worse, and it’ll improve it to some level. If it’s more typical dysmennorhea, your symptoms might disappear, and if you have a more serious cause of menstrual pain - it might just take the edge off, it’s still worth it!

Otherwise acupuncture can make you sometimes feel woozy, nauseas, and sometimes a little light headed 💕

In traditional Chinese Medicine, your Spleen and Stomach and digestion are like a small fire - and that fire needs gentle heat and warmth to break down food and turn it into energy that can be used by your body.

Conversely, drinking cold or icy water is like putting out that fire - it weakens the digestion process immediately, and can lead to bloating, tiredness, and feeling sluggish.

We want to keep the digestive fire burning steadily all day to help our bodies absorb nutrients better and support smooth circulation- that’s why this works so well for people who have constipation or diarrhoea or a mix of both.

While icy water is refreshing for a few second, in Chinese Medicine it’s seen an something that will slowly drain your energy over time.

DRINK HOT WATER says every Chinese Medicine Practitioner, every day, to every patient. Constipated? Drink hot water. Painful periods? Drink hot water. Feeling sluggish? Drink hot water. Bloating? Drink hot water. And I know it’s 42 degrees 🫠… so maybe skip today and start tomorrow when it cools down, but getting rid of iced and cold water is one of the easiest thing anyone can do to improve their health!

I’m back and it’s going to be the YEAR OF THE FIRE HORSE! Appointments are open again online, if you can’t see a time available feel free to dm me - I can sometimes juggle things around. Let’s tweak our skincare routines, let’s all use SPF50 daily, and let’s all use retinol at night- and let’s relax with cosmetic acupuncture and laser and ear seeds and guasha!

11/12/2025

Just closing for a few weeks! Next Thursday is my last session for the year - DM if you need an appointment, I have one available. And then I’ll see you all on Thursday 8th of January!

Unless you’re the only one home with a newborn baby- go ahead and wear ear plugs all damn day if you want to. Shopping? Ear plugs. Cooking with the exhaust fan on? Ear plugs. Kids between 5 and 7pm? Ear plugs. Menopause? EAR PLUGS!

I’m down with whatever you’re down for! If you want to go on HRT- sweet! If you want to try everything else - that’s also no issue at all; Chinese Medicine is amazing for managing menopause. I’m also ok if you want to mix it up and try alternatives first and then go on HRT later- it’s your body, you can do whatever you like, I’m just here to support you.

Shangxing or Du 23 is ‘Upper Star’. I often needle this point and thread the needle towards the hairline to also hit Du 24. When these points are used together, they’re a power house for unblocking that type of congestion that doesn’t budge no matter how much you blow your nose. Again, great for hayfever, anosmia, and sinusitis/blocked noses and congestion. 🤧💐🌸🍃

🌿🤧 Hayfever wrecking your days and night?✨
A large review of 30 clinical trials found that acupuncture can reduce nasal symptoms and even boost quality of life for adults with allergic rhinitis when compared to no treatment or sham acupuncture. 🙌💨
The evidence so far suggests acupuncture may work as well as common antihistamines like cetirizine or loratadine — but without the drowsy side effects. 😴❌
If you’re tired of itchy eyes, sneezing fits, and constant congestion, acupuncture could be the support your hayfever season needs. 🌸✨check the link in my profile to read the studies 📖
