Wrap up this week Great Southern Folk!! 🌬🧣🧤🧥💨

In traditional Chinese medicine, Wind is considered as the ‘chief’ cause of many diseases.

Harsh environmental wind can easily invade the body.

Protect your head, neck & shoulders from exposure to excessive wind.

“Wind is the origin of the one hundred diseases”
~ Huang Di, The Yellow Emperor 🎋

Have you heard about Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa?

Often referred to simply as Nin Jiom, this delicious sticky black cough syrup has been produced in Hong Kong since 1946, and dates back to the early years of China’s Qing dynasty (1644-1912).⁠

Nin Jiom is an all-natural herbal remedy for your unwanted dry cough and sore throat.
Made with a variety of traditional herbs & honey, it helps to soothe your raspy throat and nourish your lungs and respiratory system.

A must-have in every household for this current dryness associated Autumn season and approaching colder winter months.

Ohh, and if you’re a singer or use your voice a lot, this might well be your new best friend...

Wanna know what an Acupuncturists favourite friend in the treatment room is beside their needles??

Then say hello to Zheng Gu Shui

Whether you’re dealing with soft tissue bruising, muscle tension or soreness - Zheng Gu Shui is your go-to all natural superstar solution for fast relief and rapid recovery.

Zheng Gu Shui is a traditional Chinese liniment which has been used for many years as an external analgesic.

From bruises to post-exercise recovery, Zheng Gu Shui has got your back!

Thought to have been developed by Shaolin Monks, it’s believed to relieve Qi & Blood stagnation, move Blood-Stasis and promote healing.

It is also often traditionally referred to as Evil Bone Water, Bone-Setting Liquid or Bone Bruise Water just to name a few…

Commonly used to treat arthritis, sports injuries, strains, sprains, rheumatic aches & pains, muscle cramps, bruised or even broken bones, it contains:
Himalayan Ginseng 25%
Croton Seed 18%
Cinnamon Bark 13%
Angelica Root 13%
Gentiana 12%
Inula Flower 12%
Menthol Crystal 3%
Camphor Crystal 2%.


ZGS has remarkable pain-relieving and inflammation minimising properties, which can support various ailments such as bone bruising/fractures, dislocated joints, sprains and discomfort to muscles prior to or following sports and various physical activity.


Step 1: Apply the liquid sparingly to the affected area. You don’t need much and I prefer to use a spray-bottle for ease and accuracy.

Step 2: Massage it in for a soothing, warm yet cooling sensation that penetrates deep into the muscles, joints and ligaments.

Step 3: Feel the tension and discomfort ease away, leaving you with a sense of feeling freedom and relief

According to TCM, Autumn is when our bodies Lung & Large Intestine systems are at their most vulnerable from the environment around us, and can be easily invaded by ‘external pathogenetic factors’ (evil Qi) such as wind, milder weather and dryness.

As the weather starts to cool it is important to keep our defensive Qi (Wei Qi) healthy & robust to protect ourselves from natures external pathogens by wearing appropriate layered & warm clothing and eating nourishing & tonifying foods.

One of the best foods to help ward off these indications and enhance the Lung system and defensive Qi is Pumpkin.
⁠
Pumpkin is considered energetically warm in temperature and is thought to tonify Yin, Qi and helps to promote and encourage blood circulation, expel cold from the system and reduce dampness & phlegm.
⁠
So explore your local farmers markets and start making some delicious pumpkin soup, oven roasties or wedges, warm-salads or simply bake a yummy pie – all seasonally balancing foods to help keep you nourished & nurtured this autumn.

Autumn has arrived in Albany 🍃🍂

And with it, the outward, expansive energy of summer begins to turn inward. Leaves fall, days shorten, the ocean turns crisper and our bodies naturally prepare for the quieter months ahead.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it’s the perfect time to slow down, nourish ourselves, stay warm and prioritise Qi restoration both physically and emotionally for our body & mind.
