I recently had the pleasure of training with the master of my acupuncture style, Kiiko Matsumoto. It’s always an honor to be in the presence of a living master—someone who not only carries decades of knowledge, but embodies it so fully in their hands.

The highlight of the training was when I volunteered to be treated.

Patients often say they can’t believe how a single point can instantly relieve a painful, tender area. I hear this all the time in clinic—and even after practicing this style for over 12 years, feeling these reflexes and responses on thousands of patients, I still find myself amazed.

But experiencing it firsthand again was something else entirely.

Kiiko found three vertebrae in my back that were so tender, I honestly think my chiropractor would have had difficulty adjusting them. The sensitivity was sharp, deep, and radiated. A few points in my leg reduced it some, but that didn’t satisfy her. Then she located a single point on my scalp and needled it.

… Immediately… the pain was gone.

Bringing a baby into the world is extraordinary. It is powerful, emotional, and life-changing. But once the birth is over, many parents are surprised by how quickly the focus shifts away from their own recovery.

The postpartum period — often called the fourth trimester — is a time of deep healing. Your body is rebuilding. Hormones are shifting. Sleep is limited. Emotions can feel close to the surface. This season asks a lot of you physically, mentally, and spiritually.

You deserve care during this time, too.

At Many Lives Chinese Medicine, we offer gentle, holistic postpartum care to help your body recover, restore energy, and find balance after birth.

The New Year often carries a sense of momentum, even while we are still firmly in winter. In Chinese medicine, this is a meaningful threshold — a time to continue inward support while gently preparing the body for the movement ahead.

We are transitioning from the Year of the Wood Snake — a period of deep processing, rooting, and internal growth — into the Year of the Fire Horse, which will eventually ask for more expression, warmth, and forward motion. This shift from Snake to Horse marks a change in pace, but not an invitation to rush.

Before that Fire energy fully rises, the nervous system benefits from steadiness, warmth, and regulation.

Simple ways to support your nervous system this season:

✓ Prioritize rest and consistent sleep times by keeping a gentle evening routine, dimming lights, enjoying a warm bath or tea, and keeping your bedroom cool and restful — even when productivity feels tempting.
✓ Eat warm, nourishing meals to support digestion and grounding. Think stews, soups, root vegetables, warming spices like ginger and cinnamon, and whole grains that help the body feel stable and energized.
✓ Allow space between commitments so your body and nervous system can integrate the day’s experiences and recover. This might look like taking a short pause between meetings, stepping outside for a few minutes of fresh air, or sitting quietly with a warm drink to reset before moving on to the next task.
✓ Consider a customized herbal formula. At Many Lives, we offer personalized Chinese herbal blends designed to support digestion, sleep, circulation, and overall system regulation. These formulas are available to existing patients — you can book your consultation online - https://manylives.janeapp.com.
✓ CBD massage therapy. Our massage therapies, including options with CBD oil, help relax tense muscles, ease inflammation, and support nervous system balance. CBD works with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which regulates stress, pain, and inflammation, making it a perfect complement to acupuncture. You can schedule a massage session online - https://manylives.janeapp.com.

Acupuncture, combined with these supportive therapies, helps the body move out of survival mode, restore balance, and create the conditions for sustainable change — not through force, but through gentle support.

Rather than rushing into resolutions, we invite you to set an intention for regulation this winter. Supporting your nervous system now creates a steadier foundation for the energy and movement that will naturally build as the year unfolds.

We look forward to welcoming you into the clinic and supporting you in this next chapter of care. Wishing you a happy, healthy, and balanced New Year!

"I've been seeing Dr Davina for both acupuncture and Tui Na for multiple medical conditions since around August 2024. The acupuncture has helped me get the sleep I was lacking, relieve stress and improve appetite. I receive Tui Na for abdominal adhesions caused by multiple surgeries which also helps relieve stress. I love the heated pads on the treatment table."
