Acupuncture for Thoracic (Mid-Back) Pain

Thoracic pain is extremely common—even though most people call it “upper back pain.” This area holds tension from long hours sitting, emotional stress, shallow breathing, and rib-cage restriction.

✨ How Acupuncture Helps:
• Releases tight trapezius, rhomboids, paraspinals, and intercostal muscles
• Improves blood flow to reduce inflammation and stiffness
• Calms irritated nerves that cause burning or radiating pain
• Opens the chest and rib cage to improve posture and breathing
• Reduces stress, which often increases mid-back tension

✨ Common Causes Acupuncture Addresses:
• Desk posture / computer work
• Lifting injuries
• Rib dysfunction or intercostal strain
• Stress + anxiety tightening the upper back
• Shallow breathing patterns
• Scoliosis or structural imbalance

Acupuncture restores movement, reduces pain, and helps your body return to a state of ease.
If your mid-back feels tight, locked, or burning, this treatment can change everything.

Acupuncture for Calf Tightness & Pain: How It Works & Why It Helps

Calf tightness can come from many sources—overuse from walking or running, standing long hours at work, compensation from hip or low-back issues, dehydration, or stress. When the calf muscles stay tight, circulation slows, inflammation builds, and the tension can radiate upward into the knees, hips, and lower back.

Acupuncture provides a targeted, restorative approach.
By using specific points along the Bladder, Kidney, and Gallbladder meridians, acupuncture helps:

• Release muscle knots and tension
• Improve blood flow and oxygenation to the lower legs
• Reduce inflammation and swelling
• Calm nerve irritation that contributes to cramping
• Restore mobility and flexibility
• Support the tendons and fascia that wrap around the calf and ankle

Many patients feel a sense of lightness, reduced pressure, and increased range of motion even after the first session. For chronic or repetitive strain, a series of treatments builds long-term stability and circulation.

Acupuncture is a safe, natural, and effective therapy for:
✔ Running or gym-related tightness
✔ Jobs that require standing all day
✔ Calf cramps at night
✔ Chronic leg fatigue
✔ Post-injury stiffness
✔ Poor circulation in the lower legs

Your body is designed to move with ease. If your calves feel heavy, tight, or painful, acupuncture can help restore freedom and flow to your steps.

✨ Golfer’s Elbow Relief with Acupuncture ✨

Golfer’s elbow is a painful irritation of the tendons on the inside of the elbow, and despite the name, you don’t have to play golf to develop it. Repetitive gripping, lifting, carrying, typing, or wrist-flexing movements can strain the flexor muscles of the forearm and lead to inflammation and sharp discomfort.

You may notice:
⚡ Pain on the inside of the elbow
⚡ Tension or tightness down the forearm
⚡ Weak grip strength
⚡ Pain when lifting, carrying grocery bags, or holding objects
⚡ Discomfort during workouts or daily tasks

Acupuncture is a highly effective, non-drug treatment that supports healing from the inside out. By working with local points, channel pathways, and electroacupuncture, we help to:
✨ Reduce inflammation around the medial epicondyle
✨ Relax tight forearm flexors
✨ Improve circulation to the injured tendon
✨ Stimulate collagen repair
✨ Restore healthy movement and strength

This condition is common in golfers, weightlifters, cleaners, hairstylists, nurses, manual workers, athletes, and anyone whose daily routine requires repetitive gripping.

At Abril Acupuncture Wellness, we also incorporate gua sha, cupping, and moxibustion (based on your unique pattern) to loosen fascia, soften tension, increase blood flow, and speed recovery for long-term relief.

If elbow pain is limiting your workouts, your job, or your everyday activities—acupuncture can help you get back to moving with ease.

❤️ The Heart in TCM | The Emperor of All Organs

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Heart is the ruler of the body — guiding our spirit (Shen), emotional clarity, sleep, speech, and overall harmony.
Emotionally, the Heart is associated with joy, connection, love, but also agitation, restlessness, and emotional overwhelm.
When the Heart becomes imbalanced, both the mind and spirit can feel unsettled.

When Heart Qi, Heart Yin, or Heart Blood are out of balance, you may notice:
• Anxiety, palpitations, or feeling easily startled
• Insomnia or restless sleep
• Racing thoughts or difficulty calming the mind
• Forgetfulness or poor concentration
• Mood swings or feeling emotionally fragile
• Heat signs: red face, irritability, mouth sores
• Speech issues — talking too much or too little

The Heart teaches us connection, presence, and inner peace.
A calm Heart allows the mind to settle, emotions to soften, and spirit to shine clearly.

Foods that nourish and harmonize the Heart:
🍒 Red foods for Heart Blood: cherries, strawberries, goji berries, beets
🌰 Walnuts, lotus seeds, red dates
🍵 Chrysanthemum tea, rose tea, lavender tea for calming the Shen
🥣 Warm soups, bone broth, and gentle cooked meals
🐟 Omega-rich fish to nourish Blood
🥄 Small amounts of bitter foods (arugula, kale, cacao) to clear Heart heat
🚫 Avoid excessive caffeine, alcohol, spicy foods, or constant overstimulation — they disturb the Heart Shen

When the Heart is supported, sleep deepens, anxiety softens, focus returns, and emotional warmth flows naturally.

💛 The Stomach in TCM | Where We Receive, Process & Transform

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Stomach works hand-in-hand with the Spleen to digest not only food, but also life experiences.
Emotionally, the Stomach is affected by worry, pensiveness, overthinking, and stress around control or responsibility.
When the Stomach is out of balance, both the gut and mind can feel unsettled.

When Stomach Qi is disrupted, you may notice:
• Acid reflux, nausea, or a “knot” in the stomach
• Bloating or distention after meals
• Bad breath or a bitter taste
• Cravings for sweets or overeating when stressed
• Anxiety that sits in the gut
• Tiredness, heaviness, or feeling ungrounded
• Tendency to worry, over-plan, or feel mentally stuck

The Stomach teaches us how to absorb, process, and move forward.
Balanced Stomach Qi gives us emotional stability, strong digestion, and the ability to “stomach” life’s challenges with clarity.

Foods that support and harmonize the Stomach:
🍲 Warm cooked foods: soups, congee, roasted veggies
🥕 Carrots, squash, sweet potatoes, pumpkin
🍚 Rice, millet, oatmeal—gentle on digestion
🍵 Ginger tea, mint tea to soothe and warm the gut
🍋 A little lemon water in the morning to awaken Stomach Qi
🌿 Bitter greens to clear heat (dandelion, arugula)
🚫 Avoid too much cold/raw food, iced drinks, greasy meals, or late-night eating

When the Stomach is supported, digestion becomes smoother, energy rises, and the mind finds a steady, centered rhythm.

💛 Emotions Stored in the Spleen | Traditional Chinese Medicine

In TCM, the Spleen governs digestion, transformation, and mental focus.
Emotionally, it is linked to worry, overthinking, rumination, and feeling mentally burdened.
When Spleen Qi becomes weak or damp accumulates, both the mind and body can feel heavy, stuck, or depleted.

When Spleen energy is out of balance, you may notice:
• Bloating, loose stools, or sluggish digestion
• Sugar cravings or emotional eating
• Brain fog, overthinking, or trouble concentrating
• Feeling tired after meals
• Puffy face, heaviness in the limbs, or fluid retention
• Weak muscles or easy bruising
• Anxiety rooted in worry rather than fear

The Spleen teaches us balance, nourishment, and grounded thinking.
Supporting this organ helps calm mental chatter, improve digestion, and restore steady, centered energy.

Foods that nourish and strengthen the Spleen:
🍠 Warm, cooked foods: soups, stews, oatmeal, congee
🍯 Sweet potatoes, squash, carrots, chickpeas
🍚 Rice, quinoa, millet (gentle grains that support Qi)
🌰 Dates, yams, pumpkin seeds
🍵 Ginger, cinnamon, cardamom (warming spices to support digestion)
🚫 Avoid excess cold/raw foods, iced drinks, and sugar — they weaken Spleen Qi

When the Spleen is supported, the mind becomes clearer, energy steadier, and the body feels nourished from the inside out.

🖤Emotions Stored in the Kidneys | Traditional Chinese Medicine

In TCM, the Kidneys are the root of life — our source of vitality, willpower, and ancestral energy. Emotionally, they are connected to fear, insecurity, burnout, and deep exhaustion.
When Kidney Qi or Kidney Yin/Yang are weakened, it can affect both physical strength and emotional resilience.

When Kidney energy is out of balance, you may notice:
• Lower back pain or knee weakness
• Fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
• Hair thinning or premature graying
• Cold hands/feet or feeling easily chilled
• Anxiety, fearfulness, or feeling overwhelmed
• Low libido or hormonal imbalances
• Frequent urination or nighttime waking

The Kidneys teach us about grounding, inner strength, and trust — feeling safe in our own bodies, supported by our internal reserves, and capable of facing life’s challenges.

Foods that nourish and strengthen the Kidneys:
🫐 Black foods (TCM Kidney tonics): black beans, black sesame seeds, black rice
🍲 Bone broth, miso soup, seaweed, walnuts
🥚 Eggs, sardines, small fish rich in minerals
🥔 Root vegetables: sweet potato, yam
🌿 Kidney-warming spices: cinnamon, ginger, clove
💧 Warm, cooked foods to protect Kidney Yang (avoid excessive iced drinks)

Supporting the Kidneys helps rebuild energy, calm the mind, balance hormones, and restore deep inner stability.

🌿 Emotions Stored in the Liver | Traditional Chinese Medicine

In TCM, the Liver governs the smooth flow of Qi and is deeply connected to anger, frustration, irritability, and emotional stagnation.
When life feels stuck or overwhelming, Liver Qi can become constrained — affecting our mood, digestion, sleep, and even menstrual cycles.

When Liver energy is out of balance, you may notice:
• Irritability, mood swings, or feeling easily frustrated
• PMS, menstrual cramps, or irregular cycles
• Digestive discomfort or bloating
• Tension headaches or migraines
• Muscle tightness, especially neck/shoulders
• Eye fatigue, dry eyes, or blurry vision

The Liver teaches us about flow, flexibility, and direction.
When we support the Liver, we soften emotional tension, release stored anger, and restore harmony to the body’s natural rhythms.

Foods that nourish and soothe the Liver:
🥗 Leafy greens (kale, spinach, arugula), broccoli, beets, carrots
🍋 Lemon water to gently move Qi
🥦 Bitter greens like dandelion or mustard greens
🫘 Mung beans, artichokes, and lightly cooked veggies
🌿 Herbs like mint, chamomile, chrysanthemum to cool and calm Liver heat

Supporting the Liver helps free the emotions, clear the mind, and bring your whole system back into balance.
