Happy Chinese New Year of the Water Rabbit 😊🎉 What does the Year of the Water Rabbit really mean for us? According to Chinese astrology, the Rabbit represents peaceful and patient energy. The Rabbit is a gentle creature known for thinking things through before acting. This energy will encourage us to approach challenges and opportunities calmly and rationally. In addition to the Rabbit's peaceful energy, the Water element brings intuition and inner peace.
Water is all about tapping into our inner wisdom and trusting our instincts. It encourages us to be more in tune with our emotions and sensitive to those around us.

Acupuncture relieves stress According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, when a person is stressed, their Qi stagnates. Qi, pronounced Chi, is the vital substance of life that energizes the body and its functions. When Qi stagnates, it causes tension and pain. This will then cause your body to create cortisol, the body’s natural stress hormone, which will increase your blood pressure and cause your immune system to become suppressed. Over time, symptoms can worsen and become insomnia, anxiety, fatigue, and digestive issues. Acupuncture treatments will energise the Qi and remove any blockages. This will relieve the pain and tension caused by stress and allow the body to relax. The amount of treatments needed to relieve stress varies based on the patient. Generally, I recommend one to two treatments per week. Treatments last around an hour. DM me to book your session now!

The Wu Xing, commonly known as the Five Elements of nature are phases of movement or change. The theory of Wu Xing is central to the practice of Chinese Medicine. They describe stages of the constantly moving cycle between Yin and Yang. The Five Elements include Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. Five Element theory arose from the ancient Chinese observation of nature around them.
