Spring is neck and shoulders season–WHY? Because it’s the windiest season! The
wind outside can cause your neck and shoulder muscles to stiffen up and cause a literal pain in the neck. PLUS-Stress can put a vice grip on your shoulders and cause headaches, irritability, and affect the whole back side of the body.
We can usually get you in fairly quickly for acute neck and shoulder pain, often with pain relief in your first visit.
We’ve seen a bunch of stiff necks in clinic this week, so keep a scarf on when it's windy out to prevent neck pain!
Quick tips for a stiff neck: HEAT is your friend! Use the blowdryer on low blow and high heat for some instant help, or use a heating pad. Take a hot epson salt bath. And, stop by the clinic to pick up some of the fantastical topical pain relief products we have on hand.
No need to lose a few days to a stiff neck and jammed up shoulders! We’ve got you
covered.

This weather is an exercise in patience! It's WARM, it's cold, it's windy, it's sunny, it's
gray, it's SNOWING?!? It's a transition season, and that involves a lot of back and forth.
Which has the potential to bring some irritability with the unpredictability. With that
scenario in mind, I want to discuss SYSTEMS in our bodies, and how they flow. Our
bodies want regularity--regular sleep, regulated energy, regulated emotional states,
regulated blood sugar, regular menstrual cycles, regular bowel movements. When those systems get thrown off, it throws us off!

If your system isn’t functioning regularly, in terms of:
a. Your menstrual cycle (long, short, missing periods)
b. Your bowel movements (constipation, diarrhea, a little of both)
c. Your digestion (nausea, bloating, lack of appetite, specific cravings)
d. Your breathing (asthma, allergies, sinus pain/pressure)
e. Your mood (anger, frustration, depression, anxiety, sadness, lack of motivation, worry)
f. Your urination (too much, can’t hold it, painful, cloudy, burning)
g. Your ovulation (PCOS, Premature Ovarian Failure, painful ovulation)
h. Your nerves (neuropathy, pain, neurological issues)
i. Your mobility (pain, fatigue)

Let’s talk! Getting you regular is one of our favorite things to do. Why? Because when you are regular, you don’t even think about it. Not thinking about your body is a symptom of a healthy system. It just…runs efficiently. No problems. No complaints.

As the 5th sign of the Chinese zodiac, the dragon is associated with the month of April. April is a time of transformation between spring and summer. Going through the month of the dragon in the year of the dragon will be a powerful time to let go of childish things of the past that doesn't serve us. Make sure to ground yourself during this time of change.

Acupuncture is shown to reduce stress and flood the system with endorphins. If you're overwhelmed at work, get moved to the basement, or someone takes your red stapler, I highly recommend booking an acupuncture treatment.

I always look at my new patient's tongues. I even look at my own tongue if I need to know which herbs to take. Our tongues hold a lot of information.

Same, Catherine. Same.

Acupuncture needles aren't scary. Each one is only about the diameter of a human hair. Roughly 30 acupuncture needles can fit inside the barrel of a hypodermic needle.

These are some key nourishing activities for you to implement as you foster your evolution this year:

🔴 Let go of past, old drama and pain. Shaking qi gong is really helpful for this. I’m happy to show you an exercise at your next appointment.

🔴 Get at least 30 minutes of exercise several times per week. Most of us will want to keep this on the gentler side with yoga, qi gong, or a nice walk outside. Don’t overdo it.

🔴 Keep a routine with sleeping and eating.

🔴 Make your breakfast a substantial meal that you eat between 7:00 and 9:00 am.

🔴 Eat greens, black beans, sour, and fermented food.

🔴 Add apple cider vinegar to veggies or warm water.

🔴 Monitor what you are digesting through media and ideas.

🔴 Increase your social gatherings, playfulness, and hugs.

All of this is great for digestion, the eyes, tendons, immune system, and headaches.

Lunar new year is almost here!

"A spiritual cleansing of the old — a 'good riddance' to the bad luck and negative attitudes of the past — leaves one with a bright and optimistic approach to whatever lies ahead."
