Allie is now offering a new add on to your TCM & Acupuncture appointments!

Meet the MOXA LAMP! 🏮

A note from Allie: “The moxa lamp combines therapeutic far infrared heat with a round plate coated with 33 essential minerals to the human body. When activated by the built-in infrared heating element, the mineral plate emits a special band of electromagnetic waves ranging from 2 to 25 microns at an intensity that coincides with the wavelengths of the human body. These minerals are consequently absorbed deep into the body to encourage cellular healing.

Far infrared heat offers several health benefits, including pain relief, improved circulation, and detoxification. This heat penetrates deep into the body to speed up cellular repair and healing. Beneficial for acute muscle, joint, tendon and ligament injuries. May also help with Raynaud’s, menstrual cramps, fatigue, lower back pain, sleep disorders and more.”

Allie is now offering the infrared moxa lamp as an add on to treatments (no additional charges)!

A word from Dr. Tyler Phillipson, Active Balance Chiropractor!

Do you have a favourite pillow that’s been around for a few years? Have you ever been to a hotel and thought “this pillow isn’t my favourite”, or experienced varying degrees of sleep based on your pillow comfort? ☁️☁️

It’s important to know, your pillow matters for multiple reasons!

A good pillow helps to maintain spine alignment which can ease any tension of the muscles, helps distribute weight evenly decreasing pressure points, and improves your quality of sleep 💤💤💤

Book your appointment today to evaluate your spine health, whether or not your pillow supports you, and the options available for a positive change up!

What is Qi?

Qi, pronounced ‘chee’ is the vital force or energy that flows through all living beings and is believed to be essential for life and health in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

TCM explores the body as a network of channels through which Qi flows and disease arises when this flow is disrupted or imbalanced. Treatments like acupuncture, cupping, herbal remedies are used to address Qi imbalances and restore balance.

Do you struggle to know how to relax? Massage Therapy can help!

A massage promotes relaxation by triggering the relaxation response in the body which includes slowing the heart rate, lowering blood pressure, and reducing stress hormones.

Here are a few ways a massage can induce relaxation:
▫️Triggers the relaxation response
▫️Releases neurotransmitters
▫️Reduces muscle tension
▫️Improves circulation
▫️Stimulates the lymphatic system

Allie and Tristan offer relaxation massage therapy tailored to your needs!

Traditional Chinese Medicine 🌿

When you meet with our TCM Practitioner Allie, you may hear her introduce or reference terminology to explain occurrences within the body.

☯️ Yin and Yang: a harmonious balance between Yin (passive, dark, cool) and Yang (active, light, warm) is essential for good health. When these energies are imbalanced, it can lead to various illnesses.

☀️ Qi (Energy): Qi is the life force that flows through the body. When Qi is blocked or stagnant, it can cause imbalances and diseases.

🔹 Acupuncture: involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the flow of Qi and restore balance.

🌱 Herbal Remedies: a wide range of herbs used to treat specific conditions like colds and coughs.
