Modern wellness isn’t always healthy — from a TCM perspective 👀

❌ Juice fasts & extreme detoxes
→ weaken digestion, cause fatigue & bloating

❌ Ice baths & cold plunges
→ drain energy, disrupt hormones, worsen pain

❌ Raw vegan 24/7
→ too cold for digestion → weakness & imbalance

❌ Skipping meals & hard fasting
→ weakens Qi (breakfast = key in TCM)

❌ Too many supplements
→ overloads the Liver, creates imbalance

❌ Overtraining when tired
→ burns Qi & Yin → injuries, insomnia

❌ Cold drinks & smoothie culture
→ kills digestive fire

❌ Coffee + stimulants = “biohacking”
→ short-term energy, long-term burnout

❌ Extreme keto / zero carbs
→ weak Spleen, mood & hormone issues

❌ Late nights
→ Liver can’t restore → PMS, skin, irritability

TCM truth:
Healing isn’t extreme.
It’s warm, rhythmic, balanced, and personalized.

✨ Support your Qi — don’t punish it.

I’m often told:
“You do such great work… if only you accepted insurance, it would be absolutely perfect!”

But no one ever says the other thing:
“Thank you for treating us not according to insurance company requirements,
but according to what I truly need.
For not spending your time on endless reports, codes, and authorizations,
and instead giving that time to us — real people.”

I don’t accept insurance not because “it’s more convenient.”
But because in my practice:
— treatment is not adjusted to limits
— appointments are not cut down to 15 minutes
— decisions are made by me, the doctor, not by an insurance company algorithm

I am free from insurance rules — and that means more attention, more responsibility, and more real medicine.
And if you value this, please know: for me, this is the most meaningful gratitude.

Below in the photo is the “worthy” compensation an insurance company pays for our work.
