Are you losing hair or confidence?

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, hair is deeply connected to the strength of the Kidneys and the nourishment of the Blood. When these become depleted, hair may thin, weaken, or fall.

One ancient remedy? Black Sesame Seeds.
Rich, nourishing, and used for centuries in TCM, black sesame seeds are believed to:

• Nourish the Kidney and Liver energy
• Support healthy hair growth and strength
• Help restore natural shine and vitality
• Promote healthy blood circulation to the scalp

How to enjoy them:

• Sprinkle 1–2 teaspoons over porridge, yoghurt, or salads
• Blend into smoothies
• Add to rice dishes or stir-fries
• Enjoy as black sesame paste or in warm herbal drinks

Small daily rituals can support your body from within.

✨ Nourish your hair. Restore your confidence.

Possible symptoms:
• irritability

• fatty foods or alcohol

Thick White Coating - Usually indicates Dampness or Phlegm.

💜 March is Endometriosis Awareness Month 💜

Endometriosis affects around 1 in 10 women and people assigned female at birth worldwide, yet it often takes years to diagnose and many suffer in silence.

Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the womb, which can lead to symptoms such as:

• Chronic pelvic pain
• Painful periods
• Fatigue
• Digestive discomfort
• Pain during intimacy
• Fertility challenges

While there is currently no cure, acupuncture can offer natural support to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.

✨ How acupuncture can help:

• Pain relief: Stimulates the release of endorphins (the body’s natural painkillers) to reduce pelvic pain and menstrual cramps.
• Reduce inflammation: Improves circulation and helps calm inflammation in the pelvic area.
• Hormonal balance: Supports regulation of the endocrine system and menstrual cycle.
• Stress and nervous system support: Encourages relaxation and may help reduce stress that can worsen symptoms.
Research has also shown acupuncture can significantly reduce pain intensity and improve quality of life in people with endometriosis.

At Ashi Therapies, we take a holistic approach to women’s health, supporting your body with personalised acupuncture treatments alongside conventional care.

💜 If you’re living with endometriosis, you are not alone.

Let’s continue to raise awareness, support one another, and explore options that help you feel your best.

🦋 H Y P O T H Y R O I D I S M 🦋

Feeling burnt out or exhausted?

Impaired thyroid functioning may be part of the problem.

A little gland located in the neck, shaped like a 🦋, the thyroid produces hormones that play a role in many major functions of the body including maintaining the body’s metabolic rate, growth, detoxification and immunity. An under-active thyroid can lead to hypothyroidism.

✨ Common symptoms of hypothyroidism include:

• Persistent fatigue
• Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
• Feeling cold easily
• Hair thinning or hair loss
• Dry skin
• Brain fog or poor concentration
• Low mood or depression
• Constipation

Your thyroid plays a key role in metabolism, energy levels, and hormonal balance, so when it’s underactive it can affect many systems in the body.

🌿 How acupuncture can help

Acupuncture works holistically to support the body’s natural balance ⚖️

• Regulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis, which controls thyroid hormone production
• Reduce inflammation and support immune regulation, which may be helpful in autoimmune thyroid conditions like Hashimoto’s
• Improve symptoms such as fatigue, hair loss and cold intolerance reported by patients receiving treatment

Many people use acupuncture alongside conventional care to support energy levels, stress reduction, and overall wellbeing.

💬 If you’re experiencing symptoms or want to support your thyroid health naturally, acupuncture may be a gentle complementary approach.

Do you ever notice a salty taste in your mouth even when you haven’t eaten anything salty? 👅🧂

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), each taste is linked to an organ system.

A persistent salty taste can sometimes indicate an imbalance in the Kidney system. The Kidneys in TCM are responsible for our body’s deep energy reserves, hydration balance, and overall vitality.

When Kidney energy becomes depleted or out of balance, you might experience signs such as:

🧂A salty taste in the mouth
🧂Lower back weakness or soreness
🧂Fatigue or low energy
🧂Feeling run down or burnt out
🧂Hormonal or reproductive imbalances

✨ How can acupuncture help? Acupuncture works by supporting the Kidney system, restoring balance to the body, and improving the flow of Qi (energy).

Many people find that regular treatments help improve energy, resilience, and overall wellbeing.

🥗 Foods that support the Kidney system in TCM:

✔️Black beans
✔️Walnuts
✔️Bone broth
✔️Dark leafy greens
✔️Sesame seeds

These nourishing foods are traditionally used to support the body’s deep reserves and help restore balance.

If you’ve been noticing unusual tastes in your mouth or other subtle changes in your body, it may be your body asking for support.

🌿 At Ashi Therapies, we take a holistic approach to help restore balance and support your natural healing.

Most people associate estrogen with fertility, but this powerful hormone supports your skin, bones, brain, heart, and immunity too.

When estrogen dips, the signs can show up in surprising ways across your body:

1. Urinary health – Low estrogen thins the urinary tract lining, making infections more frequent.

2. Eye comfort – Reduced tear production leads to dryness and irritation.

3. Joint mobility – Estrogen protects cartilage; less of it means stiffer, sore joints.

4. Hair & nails – Weak growth and brittleness often reflect hormone shifts.

5. Taste changes – Some notice metallic sensations or tingling in the mouth.

6. Healing ability – Estrogen aids tissue repair, so cuts and wounds may recover slower.

7. Skin hydration – Collagen and oil production drop, leaving skin drier.

8. Hearing – Hormonal changes may subtly affect auditory function.

9. Cognitive clarity – Estrogen supports neurotransmitters, and low levels can bring brain fog.

Acupuncture helps with low estrogen by stimulating the nervous system to balance hormones, promoting blood circulation and inducing the release of endorphins, effectively helping to reduce the symptoms of this condition.

✨ Struggling with PMS every month?

You’re not alone — up to 75% of women experience Pre-Menstrual Syndrome (PMS), which can start 1-2 weeks before your period. It’s not just in your head — PMS is a real sign of internal imbalance.

🌸 Common PMS symptoms include:

- Mood swings, irritability, anxiety
- Bloating, breast tenderness
- Fatigue, poor sleep
- Food cravings
- Cramps or back pain
- ⁠Headache

🧠 In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), PMS is a result of disharmony in the Liver, Spleen, and Kidney systems — organs responsible for regulating emotions, energy, and blood flow.

🔎 TCM syndromes linked to PMS:

🔹 Liver Qi stagnation / Liver Blood deficiency → mood swings, cramps, irritability
🔹 Spleen Qi deficiency → bloating, cravings, fatigue
🔹 Kidney deficiency → hormonal imbalance, lower back pain, anxiety

🌿 How TCM can help:

✔️ Acupuncture – Regulates Qi & Blood, calms emotions, eases pain
✔️ Diet & Lifestyle Tips – Warm cooked foods, reduce stress, rest during luteal phase

💆‍♀️ Ready to regulate your cycle naturally?

Let acupuncture support your hormones and bring your body back into balance ⚖️

Is everybody enjoying the start of this brighter, more pleasant, spring-like weather? 🌿☀️ It definitely feels like the season is starting to shift!

At Ashi Therapies, we love this time of year.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), spring is linked with the Wood element and the Liver system — a time of growth, movement and fresh beginnings.

Spending time outdoors during this seasonal change can:

🌱 Help Qi (energy) move more freely through the body

🌸 Support Liver health and emotional balance

🌤 Boost mood and reduce stress

🚶‍♀️ Encourage gentle movement, which promotes circulation

🌬 Allow you to take in fresh air, supporting Lung function

Even a short walk in nature, sitting in the sunshine, or practicing mindful breathing outside can help harmonise your body with the season.

How are you making the most of the lighter days? 💚

Your glow might not be missing—it might just be hiding behind stress 😣

Even with good sleep and skincare, your face can still look tired if blood flow isn’t reaching the surface.

When we’re under chronic stress, the body reroutes blood to protect vital organs. That means less oxygen and fewer nutrients get to the skin, especially through tiny facial vessels called micro-capillaries.These are small blood pathways just under the skin.

When stress tightens them, your glow can fade, and puffiness or dull tone shows up. Skincare can’t fix what stress has closed off ⛔️

Try this gentle 3-step sequence to wake up your skin from the inside:

💆‍♀️Tap lightly alongside your nose and across your cheekbones for 60 seconds. Like a soft drumbeat, not a rub.
💆‍♀️Inhale for 4, exhale for 8. The longer exhale helps calm your nervous system.
💆‍♀️Place both palms gently over your cheeks. Hold still for 30 seconds. Warmth and stillness help your skin feel safe again. 💆🏼‍♀️

This simple rhythm helps reopen those tiny vessels using the body’s own feedback systems—breath, touch, and calm 😌

Over time, you will notice less tension, brighter skin tone, and less puffiness especially if you give this a boost with booking in for facial acupuncture, cupping and gua sha.

If this sounds like something for you, then please DM or call 07500 116 394 and let’s get started on restoring oxygen flow, reduce puffiness, and bringing vibrancy back—naturally
