Today’s herbal theme—cyst expression.

2 patients came in wanting assistance expressing chronic sebaceous cysts. Each of them received a custom topical formula to use as a warm compress, 2-3 times a day.

Here is one of them:

jie geng, bai zhu - acrid to dispel pus
dang gui, xuan shen- target the blood to invigorate and promote circulation
zhe bei mu - transform phlegm
mu li - salty to soften hardness

We complemented it with a custom internal formula to help balance their constitution.

Chinese herbs are versatile and effective for a wide range of conditions. DM me to see if they can help you!

Media isn’t passive entertainment for me; it’s a tool. I use it to:

1. Curate laughter, delight, and joy
2. Sharpen systems-thinking and remain intellectually interdisciplinary
3. Hone my lexicon to expand my capacity for original thought
4. Stay culturally and politically literate
5. Cultivate empathy and understanding for multiple perspectives while preserving the capacity to critically analyse them
6. Expand my professional expertise on functional and holistic health and longevity
7. Enrich my connection to others and the world through story, philosophy, and spirituality

By setting boundaries on both the duration and nature of my consumption, I am able to sustain a healthy relationship with a media landscape that is constantly at my fingertips.

🌿 Case Highlight: Herbal Medicine for Chronic Cystic Acne (Damp-Heat Pattern) 🌿

A new patient came to me after a decade of battling deep cystic acne. At our first follow-up, I started them on a customized herbal formula based on the Chinese medicine classic, Lian Po Yin.

Why this blend?

In Chinese medicine, stubborn, inflamed, deep-seated breakouts are often rooted in damp-heat—an internal environment marked by excess heat, swelling, congestion, and fluid stagnation.

✨ Key herbs in this formula:

• Huang Lian (coptis rhizome) & Zhi Zi (gardenia fruit): Strong heat and toxin clearers—cool down redness, swelling, and that “hot,” angry feeling.

• Hou Po (magnolia bark) & Jiang Ban Xia (ginger-prepped pinellia): Transform phlegm, drain damp, break up the heavy, deep cysts.

• Chi Shao (red peony): Subbed in for Dan Dou Chi (fermented soybeans) to clear extra heat and cool the blood.

• Lu Gen (reed rhizome): Cools lungs and stomach, supports moving out “thick damp,” while promoting clear skin by supporting the lung pathway.

• Shi Chang Pu: Opens the orifices and moves stagnation—helpful if congestion or stress are triggers.

My Process:

For all new patients, I batch just one week of herbs at a time. Why? Your body shifts fast in the beginning, and we want the formula to match those changes—not fall behind. Week-by-week tracking lets us fine-tune in real time. By weeks 4–6, most patients have a fully personalized monthly formula that fits them exactly.

Do you have breakouts that flare up with heat, humidity, dairy, sugar, or stress? Your “root” may be damp-heat. This is our target.

Ever wondered what it's like to water fast??

A few weeks ago, I completed a 7-day fast in the tropics — timed with the solstice for maximum yang energy.

Spend some time with the new TENET blog to find:

✨ a personal account on the fasting experience.
✨ guidance on how to fast safely and intentionally.
✨ what I was able to heal in my own body and spirit through the process.

This wasn’t just a fast. It was a realignment.

I share the full journey (with rare Chinese medical insights I translated myself) in the latest blog post.

🌿💕 The Legend of Dāng Guī (當歸) ✨

Everyone knows dāng guī is THE herb for women's health. It regulates menstruation, alleviates pain, and nourishes the blood. And, yes, we have it in the clinic in its most potent, raw form as one of the 160 organic, lab-tested herbs in our dispensary. But did you know its name encompasses an entire legend?

The story of dāng guī is one of love, resilience, and healing. Long ago, a husband left his wife to venture into the mountains to gather medicinal herbs. Three years passed, and his wife, believing him lost, remarried.

Shortly after, her husband finally returned, leaving them both heartbroken. As a symbol of deep regret, he gifted her all of the herbs he had collected. Stricken with grief, the woman fell desperately ill. Believing a large dose of herbs would end her suffering, she took all of them—but instead of escape, she found relief. The herbs restored her health and vitality, regulating her cycle and becoming a legend in themselves.

This herb was fittingly named dāng guī (當歸), meaning "time to return." Its name carries the significance of its story, symbolizing reunion, healing, and connection. 千里姻緣一線牽 – even over a thousand miles, a single thread connects fated love. ✨

🌿 Want to see how dāng guī could benefit your health? Visit our blog at the link in our bio to learn all about the medicinal properties of this powerhouse of an herb!

If you see me in clinic, you know I emphasize the importance of drinking at least 80-100 oz. of water per day.

Staying hydrated is one of the least expensive and most impactful actions we can take to positively influence our health. And this is even more important during the hot summer months.

Keep in mind that, although convenient, water bottled in plastic contains 3x more estrogenic activity than water from the tap or bottles in glass. Endocrine disruptors and other toxins that leach into water from plastic are no joke - prioritize your health by staying safely hydrated this summer! 💧

Did you get sunshine in your eyes this morning?? ☀️

A 5-30 minute daily dose of morning sunshine is absolutely essential for metabolic, mental, and hormonal health. It also regulates your circadian rhythm and sleep cycles!

I like to go on a walk, bike ride, or run every morning just to get that morning sunshine. 🚲🏃

And don’t forget to come see us for some acupuncture, massage, and chiropractic care today! Sliding scale $0-60 👌🏻
