Your cough isn't random. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it's your body's way of clearing a blocked pathway. Whether yours is wet, dry, or full of yellow phlegm, each type points to a different internal imbalance. Learn what yours might mean in our latest blog post.

By Carrie Lee R.Ac, R.TCM.P In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), a cough is more than just a symptom; it is a "rebellion" of your body's internal energy. 1.

March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month—a perfect time to pause, reflect, and talk about health with the people we care about.

Colorectal cancer has been trending on social media lately, with stories and conversations shining a light on how it’s affecting younger adults more than ever. These posts are a powerful reminder: don’t wait until something feels wrong—check in, ask questions, and stay informed.

Being proactive is one of the simplest ways to protect your long-term health.

On World Kidney Day, it’s a good reminder that the kidneys are one of the body’s major emunctories—organs responsible for eliminating waste and maintaining internal balance.

In naturopathic medicine, the kidneys work alongside other elimination pathways: the liver, bowels, skin, and lungs. When toxic load increases or one pathway becomes sluggish, the others often have to compensate. Over time, this added burden can contribute to symptoms showing up elsewhere in the body.

Supporting kidney health therefore isn’t only about the kidneys themselves—it’s about maintaining healthy elimination across all of the body’s emunctories.

Hydration, digestion, liver support, and regular bowel function all play a role in keeping these systems working together effectively.
