Rivers of Qi Acupuncture

Acupuncture is similar to skipping stones on a mellow river. Each needle creates a ripple effect that heals by balancing & harmonizing body systems+organs.

Acupuncture is the most natural medicine that has helped me, requires schooling of Eastern medicine paired alongside Western physiology, pathology, & medicine. I look forward to helping people with headaches, body aches, asthma, the common cold, infertility, menstruation, menopause, digestive problems, people currently in or post-chemotherapy, fatigue, insomnia, and many internal illnesses which Western medicine may be too harsh or possess high risks when treating.

Start the New Year with a splash of self care! We are still in winter and for a lot of people the holidays can take a lot of energy, so for January, a great practice is to focus on the self. Then in spring, it's time to move outward again!

We still have some slots open on New Years Day for those who aren't working and would enjoy an acupuncture treatment to kick start the year (or to wind down from the holidays)!
If you're the person who says "I haven't tried it cause I can't take off work to go", Rivers of Qi is open later than other clinics on weekdays and we remain open on some "bank holidays" too. Each year is different, and this year, New Years Day will be a day of energizing and healing ( and maybe detoxing ) to bring new energy for 2025!

Thank you to all who voted for me! It means so much to me to be able to practice where I grew up, serve my awesome community, and bring success to people around me! Acupuncture for pain or acupuncture for fertility, think of Rivers of Qi!

Fertility or "infertility" is a journey of ups and downs, which are much easier to navigate when you have a support system. Even if you're not ready to tell family or friends, creating a support system of people who know the types of things that happen on this journey and can be a sounding board for you is key.
Choose providers that you click with who can really support you. It is also helpful that acupuncture is very good at unblocking the body and calming the mind!

If you have books and other gently used school supplies that you don't need anymore, we can take them off your hands for a good cause! October 1st through October 30th, bring any school usable items for Elementary ages through High School. If they are used but in good condition, let's make sure they get reused!

Recently, I learned that a special form of clapping and Balinese bell ringing are ways to clear out the funk and stillness (or bad energy) in a space, replacing it with new refreshed energy. I have always loved meditation bowl sounds, which the bells were nothing like! Haha!
The bells were high pitched and in essence,broke up the stagnant energy, truly having a clearing effect rather than the grounding feeling I feel when I hear meditation bowls. It was a new experience, and the clinic feels fresh and ready!

In addition to acupuncture needling, many patients also get red light therapy (known by many other names including photobiomodulation, infrared therapy, & more). This stimulates the cells of our body to increase ATP production (the powerhouse of each cell). This helps to heal the area, reduce inflammation, and increase the health of that whole area. We use this for reproductive issues on both men and women, digestion issues, and skin issues. We've seen results with patients in both goal outcomes AND lab work!

Last Clinic Day of 2023!
Thank you to everyone who've been following along and engaging with me here. I love knowing that I can share information beyond my physical clinic and getting feedback that I've been able to help some of you! Here's to a great new year!

When the body is struggling to clear phlegm, feels run down, tired, and head feels full of pressure, it can be helpful to get a little cupping in addition to acupuncture. Cupping helped this person to move the phlegm and fluids when their body was struggling to do this on its own.
If she had come in sooner, we would've repeated treatments to reduce the length of her discomfort, but in this case, her body had kicked out the initial illness and was stuck. Acupuncture is helpful to boost the immune system and detoxification process.

So many of us are living the city life, packing our days with to-do's, and not feeling like we can take a deep breath. but we can BUILD IN a day for deep breaths! Start with monthly and mark a *rest day* on your calendar. If you don't schedule it, that day will get filled up like any other day. So mark it and treat it as unchangeable like every other event in your calendar because it IS just as important as every other event in your calendar!
When the day comes, rest in whichever way you enjoy. It doesn't have to be "do nothing". Instead, think of it as a day to do anything!

If you could go back and tell your younger self 1 positive thing, what would it be? Would it be a specific move you've taken that has led you to how far you've come? Would it be that everything works out for you even if the path doesn't look like what you thought it would?

Many of us think a lot about where we want to be in the future and sometimes the path is daunting, worrisome, or stressful. It is super helpful to spend time occasionally thinking about where you are now and the positives in this moment, whether or not it is where you wanted to be, there are likely things we overlook that are actually pretty good as well. Being in this moment is a skill many of us have drilled out of our minds. If this sounds like you, try this mind exercise today.

One of the best moments in clinic is when a patient forgets what they initially came in for because it's no longer a problem! The funny thing is, sometimes people don't think they are getting better, because we're always talking about what currently ails them. In this case, during week 3 we talked about the person's other current ailments, so in week 4, she just realized that she hadn't been experiencing her initial back pain for more than a week!
**This is NOT the typical speed at which pain will be completely gone. This case was fast, but yes, you can expect to experience relief from the very first week of treatments!
