Low AMH can feel worrying — but in TCM, it’s not a diagnosis of “no hope.” Instead, it’s a pattern showing how the body’s energy, blood, and organ systems are functioning. 🌿✨
Qi & Blood Deficiency, Kidney Jing Deficiency, Liver Qi Stagnation, Dampness, and diet-related imbalance are all patterns that can impact ovarian vitality and follicle development. The good news? Each of these can be supported with the right herbs, acupuncture, warming diet, and lifestyle changes.
TCM focuses on restoring the internal environment so your follicles receive nourishment, circulation improves, and your natural reproductive capacity is supported. Your number is not your destiny — your body can be strengthened. 💛

Since everyone’s newly Chinese these days — yes, this is your sign to add red dates (aka jujube) to hot water.

Warmth over ice. Always. Chinese baddies know: it’s not just a drink, it’s a ritual. Gentle hydration, better digestion, and a very Chinese way of taking care of your body.

If you’re becoming Chinese lately, this might be your first Chinese drink. If you’re already on Chinese baddie TikTok — you know exactly why this hits. Comment if this is your first newly Chinese habit, or ask if you want more Chinese drink ideas.

Cold and flu season is officially here, and in Traditional Chinese Medicine, early intervention makes all the difference. 🌿✨
TCM practitioners reach first for formulas that release the exterior, clear heat, and support the body’s natural defence system. Yin Qiao San is often used at the very first sign of a sore throat or chills, while Gan Mao Qing Re Ke Li helps clear heat, ease congestion, and soothe flu-like symptoms.
Pairing these with an Immune Support formula helps strengthen Wei Qi — your body’s protective shield. Stay warm, rest deeply, and nourish your immunity the TCM way.

Since you’re Chinese now — here’s a 5-minute acupressure routine you can do at home, no tools needed.

This uses acupressure points in the hands to support:
• stress & anxiety relief
• digestion & constipation
• sleep quality
• liver balance
• circulation & energy

You don’t need an acupressure mat for feet, and you definitely don’t need acupressure sandals for this.

These are classic acupressure points for sleep, stress, and acupressure points for constipation — all accessible just by rubbing your hands.

This is part of Chinese medicine, often used alongside acupuncture — but this is the self-care version you can do daily.

If you’re curious about acupuncture benefits, or you’ve searched sleep pressure point, acupressure points for liver, or even cosmetic acupuncture — this is a gentle place to start.

No needles. No equipment. Just your hands.
Save this, try it daily, and welcome to your Chinese era.

Red Dates (Da Zao) are a true classic in Traditional Chinese Medicine — a gentle, nourishing herb used for centuries to tonify Qi and enrich Blood. ✨
Warm in nature and sweet in flavour, red dates enter the Spleen, Lung, and Liver channels, helping to strengthen digestion, calm the mind, and restore vitality. They’re often added to soups, teas, and tonics as a natural way to support energy, immunity, and hormonal balance.
Whether you’re replenishing after stress, boosting fertility, or simply warming the body, Da Zao is a beautiful everyday herb to include in your routine. 🌿

Estrogen is a beautiful, powerful hormone — but when it becomes out of balance, the body speaks. 🌿✨
Estrogen dominance can show up in subtle ways at first: low libido, mood swings, PMS, fatigue, anxiety, stubborn weight, irregular cycles, or hormonal acne. Over time, it may contribute to conditions like PCOS, fibroids, or fertility struggles.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, these signs often point to Liver Qi stagnation, poor detoxification, or an imbalance between Yin and Yang. The good news? With the right lifestyle shifts, herbal support, nutrition, and stress regulation, hormones can return to harmony.
Your symptoms are not random — they are communication. And balance is absolutely possible. 💛

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, a “Cold Uterus” refers to a pattern where the womb lacks warmth, circulation, and nourishing Qi and Blood. This cold can come from long-term exposure to cold foods, cold environments, stress, or constitutional imbalance. When warmth is missing, the uterus may feel energetically “frozen,” leading to menstrual discomfort, fertility challenges, fatigue, or emotional stagnation.
TCM views the body as a whole system. Liver stagnation, emotional tension, or insufficient warmth can all affect reproductive health — often showing up as moodiness, irritability, low mood, or physical symptoms like chest tightness and dizziness.
Understanding these signs helps women reconnect with their bodies and restore balance with warmth, nourishment, and mindful lifestyle support. 🌿💛

Sometimes the waiting period on a fertility journey can feel long — but it can also become one of the most empowering phases. 🌿✨
This is the perfect time to strengthen your body, regulate your hormones, and improve overall reproductive health. Acupuncture supports circulation, reduces stress, and balances Qi. Thoughtful diet and lifestyle changes nourish the Blood, warm the womb, and stabilise hormones. Gentle exercise boosts energy, mood, and metabolic balance.
Preparing your body before pregnancy is one of the most valuable gifts you can give your future self. Every small step taken now builds a stronger foundation for the months ahead. 💛

Rice, congee, lychee, goji — can you say the words on beat? 🥢🎶 We made a Chinese edition of the say the words on beat challenge and it got way too funny 😂 If you’re newly Chinese, being Chinese, or just vibing with the culture… try this and see if you can keep up! Expect chaos. Expect laughs. Expect someone to mess up “lychee” on beat every time 🍚😂

Winter often slows everything down — circulation, energy, even the glow of our skin. As the seasons shift, acupuncture becomes a powerful way to awaken the body again. 🌿✨
By reopening the meridian pathways and improving Qi and Blood flow, acupuncture naturally revitalises the skin from within. Better circulation means better nourishment to the face and tissues, supporting brightness, elasticity, and healing.
If your skin feels dull, dry, or sluggish after winter, gentle acupuncture can help restore vitality and bring back that natural glow. Reawaken your system. Rebuild your flow.
Spring starts from inside the body. 💛
