📚 Back to School Season = Stress + Germs + Big Transitions.
⠀
New schedules, earlier mornings, emotional ups and downs — and let’s be real: the wave of sniffles and coughs is already starting.
⠀
This time of year is a lot — for kids, parents, teachers, and anyone whose routine is shifting.
⠀
In Chinese medicine, this seasonal transition (late summer into fall) is when we’re most vulnerable to stress, low immunity, and getting knocked off balance.
⠀
Here’s how we help:

✔️ Acupuncture to regulate the nervous system, support better sleep, reduce overwhelm
✔️ Moxibustion to strengthen immunity and warm the body’s defenses
✔️ Herbal formulas tailored to your body — to boost resilience or support early symptoms
⠀
Whether you’re feeling run down already or want to stay ahead of the curve, now is the time to take care of your system before the season really kicks in.
⠀
🧡 Stay grounded, supported, and well — for you and your family.

📅 Booking for this week & next — link in bio.

🌿 Weight Loss: There’s More Than One Way

GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy are everywhere right now—and for some, they’re a helpful tool. But for others, the side effects, long-term dependency, and root-cause questions leave them looking for a more natural, sustainable path.

That’s where Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture come in.

In TCM, weight gain isn’t just about calories—it’s about balance. We look at things like:

🔹 Spleen Qi deficiency (affects digestion + metabolism)
🔹 Dampness accumulation (think bloating, heaviness, stubborn fat)
🔹 Liver Qi stagnation (stress eating, hormonal imbalances)
🔹 Emotional health (because let’s be real—this matters too)

Acupuncture helps by:
💆‍♀️ Regulating appetite + cravings
🔥 Supporting healthy digestion + metabolism
😌 Reducing stress + emotional eating
💤 Improving sleep + energy so your body can reset

At Golden Point Acupuncture, we work with your body—not against it. It’s not a quick fix. It’s a gradual return to balance, where weight loss becomes a natural byproduct of feeling better overall.

Curious if it’s right for you? Let’s talk. DM us or book a consultation—we’ll meet you where you’re at. 🧡

🌸 Thriving in Menopause: The Chinese Medicine Concept of Second Spring

✨ By Christina Ververka, L.Ac. | Golden Point Acupuncture .lac

There’s a powerful shift happening: more open, honest conversations about every phase of a woman’s life — including perimenopause and menopause. This transformation isn’t just cultural; it’s deeply personal. As a practitioner and woman walking this path alongside so many others, I want to share a timeless perspective from Chinese Medicine that reimagines this transition not as an ending — but a beginning.

In Chinese Medicine, “Second Spring” is the term for what we in the West call perimenopause and menopause. While the “First Spring” (around age 14) begins our reproductive journey, the Second Spring marks a beautiful new phase — when creative energy turns inward, intuition sharpens, and wisdom blossoms.

🔁 The Bao Mai, a vital channel connecting Heart and Uterus, shifts direction — from nurturing others to nurturing self. This inner rebirth is an invitation to live more aligned with our truth, to give from a place of fullness, and to rediscover purpose beyond roles and productivity.

Symptoms like hot flashes, fatigue, sleep issues, or mood swings can be disruptive — but you don’t have to go it alone. Chinese Medicine has supported women through these transitions for centuries.

💆‍♀️ Acupuncture helps:
✔ Regulate hormones
✔ Reduce hot flashes and night sweats
✔ Improve sleep, mood, and focus
✔ Boost vitality and emotional balance

🔥 Moxibustion (warming mugwort therapy) supports:
✔ Kidney and hormonal strength
✔ Joint pain and cold sensitivity relief
✔ Immunity and digestive health

Together, these gentle therapies offer a deeply individualized, holistic way to feel empowered — not diminished — by this phase of life.

🌿 Ready to thrive in your Second Spring? Book an appointment with one of our incredible Japanese-trained Licensed Acupuncturists at Golden Point Acupuncture. We’re here to walk this path with you — honoring your body, your story, and your innate wisdom.

🌞 Summer Glow Up Starts Within 🌞

As summer approaches, we naturally start stepping into a more social, radiant version of ourselves. But the true glow-up? It begins within. 😌✨

Facial acupuncture is more than just skin-deep—it’s a reflection of your internal harmony. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the face is considered a mirror of the Heart, the organ that governs joy, connection, and vitality. And right now, we’re in Heart season (May–June), making it the perfect time to tend the heart through the face. 🫀💆🏻‍♀️

💖 When your Heart is balanced, you radiate. Your eyes shine, your skin glows, and your presence lights up a room.

Let’s align your inner and outer worlds—because real beauty starts with balance.

📅 Book your acupuncture session now and give your summer the vibrant start it deserves.

🧠 May is Mental Health Month 🌿

At Golden Point Acupuncture, we believe that your mental health is just as important as your physical health. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re highlighting how acupuncture can support emotional well-being and balance from the inside out.

🔬 The Science Behind the Needles:

✨ Recent studies show that acupuncture can help regulate key neurotransmitters like:

Serotonin – often called the “feel-good” chemical, associated with mood, sleep, and emotional balance

Dopamine – connected to motivation, pleasure, and cognitive focus

A 2024 study published in Frontiers in Neuroscience found that electroacupuncture significantly increased serotonin and dopamine levels in animal models of depression—showing promising results for improving mood naturally. 🧪💡

🌱 Make Your Mental Health a Priority

You deserve to feel balanced—mind, body, and spirit. Small daily habits, along with acupuncture, can make a big difference:

✅ Practice 10 minutes of deep breathing or meditation
✅ Get outside for some sun and movement
✅ Create a consistent sleep routine
✅ Limit screen time and information overload
✅ Nourish your body with whole, grounding foods
✅ Journal your thoughts to release stress and gain clarity
✅ Connect with loved ones and lean into your community—you’re not alone

✨ We’re here to support your journey. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, or burnout, acupuncture can help realign your energy and restore calm.

📍 Book your next session at Golden Point Acupuncture and prioritize your peace. Your mind matters.

🌕✨ Embrace the Change & Find Balance ✨🌕

As we transition into Daylight Saving Time this week, our bodies may feel a bit off balance. The shift in time can disrupt our circadian rhythms and leave us feeling more fatigued or even more stressed. 🌿💤

This week’s Full Blood Moon and Total Lunar Eclipse from last night are powerful cosmic events, representing a time of transformation and letting go. 🌑💫 A perfect opportunity to reflect, release what no longer serves you, and invite in new energy for growth and healing.

✨ Tips to stay balanced during this time:

🌿 Prioritize rest – your body needs time to adjust to the time change.
🌟 Take a moment for reflection – the Full Moon is the perfect time for releasing old energy.
🧘‍♀️ Focus on self-care – acupuncture can help restore balance and help you feel rejuvenated.
At Golden Point Acupuncture, we’re here to help you navigate the physical and energetic shifts with personalized treatments that support your well-being during this cosmic transition.

🌸 Come in and let’s work together to restore your energy!

🌿✨ Preparing for Spring! Embrace the Season of Renewal at Golden Point Acupuncture ✨🌿

Spring is a season of renewal, growth, and fresh beginnings—a potent time for cleansing and starting new projects. 🌱 Just as nature awakens from its winter slumber, it’s the perfect time for our minds, bodies, and spirits to align with the energy of transformation and rebirth.

🌞 As the days grow longer, nature is in perfect balance, just like we should strive to be. Spring marks a perfect balance between day and night, reminding us to find harmony in our lives—between work and rest, action and reflection, giving and receiving. This is a time to ease into new endeavors, not push too hard.

🌿 Spring also brings mental clarity, focus, and natural mood boosts. The increase in sunlight helps our brains produce serotonin and dopamine, improving motivation, mood, and mental sharpness. 🌞 With the fresh air, blooming flowers, and warmer temperatures, it’s easier than ever to find joy and reduce stress. It’s the perfect season to spark creativity and explore new passions! 🎨💡

🌱 Spring is also a time of detoxification and renewal. Just as nature clears away the remnants of winter, our bodies naturally crave lighter, cleansing foods. Eating fresh greens, fruits, and hydrating foods can support digestion, boost energy levels, and help you feel balanced. 🥗🍏

This season offers a chance to embrace a fresh, vibrant version of yourself. Whether through acupuncture, a simple walk outdoors, or setting new intentions, Spring provides the perfect energy to nurture your well-being. 🌸

How will you embrace the renewal of Spring? 🌱✨
