“Why do people love cupping?”

It is one of the fastest ways to get stagnant energy and tension moving.

During your acupuncture session, cupping creates gentle suction that lifts the tissue, increases circulation, and encourages your body to release what it’s been holding onto.

People choose cupping when they’re feeling:
✨ tight shoulders + neck tension
✨ back pain or stiffness
✨ stress stored in the body
✨ sluggish circulation
✨ fatigue or heaviness

The best part? When you get off the table, most patients say they feel lighter, looser, and deeply relaxed — like their body can finally exhale. Muscles soften. Breathing opens. Movement feels easier.

Those temporary marks are simply a sign of circulation coming back to areas that needed attention. They fade quickly — the relief tends to last longer.

If your body has been asking for a reset, cupping is a beautiful place to start.

“How often should you get acupuncture?”

The honest answer: it depends on what you’re dealing with.

Acute issues → 2-3x/week initially
Chronic conditions → Weekly, then space out
Maintenance care → Every 2-4 weeks
Wellness → Monthly tune-ups

Think of it like this: the more active the problem, the more frequent the care. As your body heals, we adjust.

Your winter self-care checklist, according to 3,000 years of Traditional Chinese Medicine wisdom: ❄️

☐ Warm water (never cold!)
☐ Cooked, warming foods
☐ Keep your kidneys & feet warm
☐ Sleep more (nature does!)
☐ Move gently, not intensely
☐ Bone broth, ginger, warming spices

How many of these are you practicing? Truthfully.
How can you add a gentle self care practice to your routine for the season?

Winter isn’t the season to push through exhaustion. It’s the season to RESTORE.
In TCM, winter governs the Kidney system—your deepest energy reserves. This is the time to conserve, replenish, and go inward.

Your body isn’t asking you to be lazy. It’s asking you to be WISE. 🌙

(And if you need extra support this winter? Acupuncture is incredible for building Kidney energy and helping you move through the season with ease.)

Going, going, almost gone…get your vitamin d now! Load up!! Soon the window for getting vitamin d in Denver will be closed for the next several months. If you don’t have the D-Minder App, check it out. It can help you learn how to be in better relationship with the sun. Vitamin d is a major player in your health. Get your level checked now with blood work, to see how well you stored what you received over the summer. This will give you an idea if you have enough for the long winter and if you need to supplement. Try to get your levels up to at least up to 50 by the end of the summer. Fall is a great to time to get checked! ✔️

Why I Got a DexaFit Scan + VO₂ Test …

You know that feeling when you’re doing all the right things—eating well, moving your body, getting better sleep—but you still wonder, “Is this actually working for me?”
That’s exactly why I booked a DexaFit scan and a VO₂ test.

The DexaFit scan gave me the full inside look: How much lean muscle I’ve built How strong my bones are How much visceral fat (the kind that sits around your organs) I’m carrying Whether my muscles are balanced from side to side

Then there’s the VO₂ test—my personal favorite. It measures how efficiently your body uses oxygen during exercise, which is actually the single best marker of your overall health. Why? Because it shows how well your heart, lungs, and muscles work together, which predicts everything from endurance and fitness to longevity. In other words, it’s a real window into your body’s ability to thrive.

For me, these tests aren’t about chasing perfect numbers—they’re about understanding my body. When you know where you’re starting, you can train smarter, make better choices, and feel stronger, healthier, and more confident in your own skin.

If you’ve ever wondered what’s really going on inside your body—not just what you see in the mirror—these tests are worth it. You can get tested at .denver!

Happy spring equinox! What is everyone doing today? I’m celebrating the spring equinox a little late since I was at work on Wednesday. Today I am off work, so I have time during the ‘D window’ to take in some quality vitamin D from the sunshine. I’m rebooting!No sunscreen and no glasses, just my D-minder app, set to tell me how long I can stay out without getting sunburned. Currently at the latitude of Denver, our D window lasts from 9:49 am to 4:25 pm. It seemed like a long few winter months without having the D window. Do you have knowledge of or practices of circadian biology training? Do you get your D levels checked? If you live above 37 latitude you do not get vitamin D from the sun for a few months in the winter. You can focus on restoring and building your levels now.

For the last year I’ve been studying ketosis. My body and mind likes using fat as energy instead of glucose. I have felt better on so many levels. My brain, hormones, sleep, and energy levels have vastly improved. Getting into Ketosis is not easy! Be conscious of going too fast and experiencing the ‘keto flu’. The above results come from fasting for 3 days. Fasting like this has incredible benefits. While fasting, I drink electrolytes, water, salts, and teas. I also exercise. And I sleep 8+hrs a night. Although the exercise part may be harder for the majority, I think you will notice how well you sleep.
***Always consult a healthcare professional for help before entering Deep Ketosis.
Why do it?
In deep Ketosis Your body produces a large quantity of ketones, primarily coming from the breakdown of fat. During which time, the body uses fat instead of glucose for energy.
Benefits may include:
+reducing inflammation
+blood sugar control
+improved cognitive function
+weight loss
It’s extremely important to hydrate and add in salt and electrolytes while entering deep Ketosis and fasting is not the only way. I also suggest using a keto meter like the one above to monitor your ketone levels. If you get healthy you set the example for everyone in your sphere. It’s so important, especially these days.
Just popping in to share my personal journey this past year, of ways to get healthy and stay healthy! Ask me more!

People rarely ask why my practice is called Sitting Moon. Maybe they think it is poetic...
Sitting Moon or 'sitting the moon' is the precious time period of rest and recovery after giving birth. Unfortunately, the American culture has no cultural framework for this. Those in healthcare, who provide support during pregnancy and postpartum, here in the USA, do our best to help educate birthing mothers about this. I loved listening to this clip from a family in Taiwan. It's perspective. www.sittingmoonfamilyacupuncture.com

Hi everyone! Just wanted to send a gentle reminder as holiday season is now upon us…stay hydrated, get outside and keep getting sunshine daily, prioritize sleep and exercise, stay away from sugar and alcohol, avoid cravings by eating an adequate amount of protein and healthy fat. This is the minimum! What else would you add to this list?
