🛑 Stop fixing the hinge if you aren’t going to oil the joint.
Body: Ever notice how you feel great immediately after a treatment (massage, chiro, or acupuncture), but 3 days later the stiffness creeps back in?
It’s not that the treatment didn’t work. It’s that your body couldn’t hold the correction.
Think of your body like a car engine: 🔧 Acupuncture is the Mechanic: It fixes the alignment, releases the pressure, and unblocks stuck gears. 🛢️ Herbs are the Oil: If your engine is running dry, it doesn’t matter how perfectly aligned the parts are—it’s going to overheat and seize up again.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), chronic tension, cramps, and stiffness often mean your tissues are “thirsty.” They lack the internal nourishment needed to stay pliable and soft.
We use acupuncture to reset your structure. We use herbal medicine to rebuild your substance.
You need both to truly heal.
