Let’s call it the ❄️ Dry Skin Survival Kit!

If your skin is drier because of colder temps and indoor heating, think about adding some of these to your routine:

🪮Dry Skin Brush
This is a natural bristle brush you can use before showering to gently exfoliate, slough off dead skin cells, and stimulate lymphatic flow. 

🧽 Loofah
Using a loofah with soap and water in the shower is another way to gently exfoliate the skin. Careful not to overdo it because too much exfoliation can irritate the skin. 

💧Humidifier
This can help with dry bedroom air. 

🧴 Body Moisturizer
Look for a moisturizer that is free from parabens and fragrances. 

🫧 Face Oil
Oils are what naturally moisturize our skin. 

💋Lip Balm
Try a natural lip balm made with beeswax, shea butter, or coconut butter. 

🥤Water Bottle
Staying hydrated is just as important for the skin in the winter as it is in the summer!

One last thing:

Eating nourishing foods with healthy fats and antioxidants can also help to keep your skin more naturally moisturized and protected from the elements.

Transform Your Sleep with Simple, Everyday Habits 🌙✨

Struggling with restless nights? 🛌 It’s time to build a bedtime routine that works for you! From fine-tuning your meal and exercise timing to creating a calming sleep space, small changes can make a big difference. 🌟

Learn how to limit stimulants, listen to your body’s natural cues, and address pain for restorative sleep that leaves you refreshed and ready to take on the day. 🌅💤

Ready to prioritize your sleep and create a routine for a healthier, happier you? Check out our latest blog for tips to transform your nights and reclaim your mornings! 🌿✨ https://bit.ly/SSA_sleep

For clear and healthy skin, read this (don’t skip #3)!

1️⃣ Skin health is a reflection of gut health.
Breakouts, rashes, irritations, and redness are outward signs of inflammation, which often stems from the gut.

Tip: Support your gut AND skin with fiber, probiotics, and healthy fats!

2️⃣ Sugar accelerates skin aging.
Excess sugar triggers a process called glycation, where sugar binds to collagen proteins in the skin, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and aging skin.

Tip: Limit sweets to occasional treats! 🍭

3️⃣ Diet can minimize sun damage.
Although not as strong as sunscreen, certain nutrients like beta-carotene and lycopene are stored in layers of the skin, where they help protect against UV damage.

Tip: Eat the rainbow! 🌈

4️⃣ Sleep is needed for glowing skin.
During sleep, the body releases growth hormone and produces collagen to strengthen the skin, reduce fine lines, and minimize sagging or puffy skin.

Tip: It’s true that we all need our beauty sleep! 💤

5️⃣ Chemicals in skincare products can seep into your bloodstream.
Chemicals that persist in the environment and in our bodies (meaning they never go away!) are called forever chemicals. Many of these are ingredients in skincare products from sunscreens to lipsticks.

Tip: Read labels and choose non-toxic products! 💅

Okay, I know that’s a lot of information, but the point is:

Chasing skin health with nothing more than expensive topical products is not doing anybody any good. Skin health is truly a reflection of whole-body health.

October is Pregnancy, Infant, and Child Loss Awareness Month, and I know this time can bring up a lot of emotions for those walking this path. But grief and healing aren’t tied to one month on the calendar, and I want you to know I’m here to support you in every season, through every step of your fertility journey.

If you’ve experienced loss, you’re not alone, and you don’t need to hide what you’re feeling in my care. I’m here to listen, hold space, and offer encouragement as you navigate the highs and lows.

With acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, we focus on the whole person—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Whether it’s October or any other time of year, I’m here to help you find healing, balance, and support. 💜

World Mental Health Day: Take a Moment for You 🌿🧠

Today is all about mental health awareness and making your well-being a priority. 💚 Feeling overwhelmed by stress or anxiety? Acupuncture might be the natural reset you need. By stimulating endorphins and balancing stress hormones, acupuncture promotes relaxation, emotional balance, and calm.

On World Mental Health Day, let’s focus on nurturing our minds as much as our bodies. Acupuncture offers a holistic approach to mental health, helping you feel more grounded and resilient in the face of life’s challenges. ✨

💥Female hormones start with estrogen & progesterone BUT ⬇️⬇️

They don’t end there.

If you’re dealing with period problems, PMS, mood swings, painful breasts, no libido, hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog, or anything else you suspect *might* be your hormones, this post is for you!

Yes, it might be your hormones.

AND ALSO your hormones might be out of whack because of one of these 6 contributing causes I see most often in my practice:

1️⃣ Detoxification (estrogen is metabolized in the liver)
2️⃣ Gut Health (estrogen metabolites are eliminated in everyday healthy 💩)
3️⃣ Stress (stress causes the body to favor cortisol production over progesterone)
4️⃣ Blood Sugar (spikes in blood sugar and insulin lower the levels of SHBG, increasing free estrogen and testosterone)
5️⃣ Nutrient Depletion (magnesium and B6 are especially important for hormone metabolism)
6️⃣ Xenoestrogens (everyday chemicals can mimic our hormones)

Don’t worry. It’s not your job to make sense of all this.

That’s my job.

If you want to stay informed and empowered in your health and prefer a root-cause approach, you’re in the right place. Message me for next steps on how we can help you optimize your hormone health.

Hello + Welcome! I think it’s time for a reintroduction!

This past year has been a whirlwind adventure of growth and learning as I’ve nurtured this dream of opening a reality. Balancing mom life and solopreneur life has been a journey like no other, and I’ve missed out on not only sharing the blood, sweat, tears and ugly crying going on behind the scenes, but also missed sharing the beautiful moments with my family who have been so supportive in helping to bring to life.

I’m going to do better with that, I’m excited to share a little more about our life behind the scenes. The fun, the crazy, the love, and the why behind it all.

I’m feeling nostalgic looking back on this past year. This February I celebrated one year since opening in Beverly, and I just celebrated my BUSIEST month yet! It’s been a whirlwind, but I want to be able to look back one year from now, and actually be able to REMEMBER the growing pains, since 2023 was such a blur of stress and chaos.

Thanks to all my patients and clients who have made this year possible, to the ladies of Church103, and to the Beverly community for being so incredibly supportive! I can’t wait to see what year 2 brings!
