Love this sneaky acupoint for any type of neck or shoulder pain.

❄️ SI3 (Small Intestine 3) – A Powerful Point for Frozen Shoulder

Struggling with shoulder pain, stiffness, or difficulty lifting your arm?

✨ SI3 is commonly used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to help improve shoulder mobility, reduce stiffness, and support natural pain relief. It is also known for benefiting the neck and upper back.

👉 Apply firm, comfortable pressure on both hands for 1–2 minutes, 2–3 times a day.

⚠️ Results vary depending on the underlying cause, and this point should be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan—not as a replacement for medical care.

Save this post for future reference and share it with someone dealing with frozen shoulder.

🫖 🍵 ☕️

In TCM, different teas have different temperatures, actions, and effects on the body. Some cool excess Heat 🔥, some warm Yang ☀️, and others help digestion, circulation, or mental clarity.

Here are some of my favorites 👇

🍃 Green Tea
Cooling and refreshing.
Great for clearing Heat, supporting digestion, and soothing Liver Qi.
Perfect for people who run hot, feel irritable, or tend toward inflammation.

🔥 Black Tea
More warming in nature.
Supports Yang, warms the Stomach, and can feel grounding and comforting, especially in colder weather or for people with cold digestion.

🍂 Oolong Tea
One of the best teas for moving stagnant Qi and resolving Dampness.
Traditionally used to support digestion after heavy or greasy meals.

🌱 Pu-erh Tea
Aged and earthy.
Excellent in TCM for strengthening the Spleen, transforming Dampness, and helping with that heavy, foggy feeling after overeating.

💚 Matcha
More concentrated than regular green tea.
Clears Heat while also helping focus and concentration.
Amazing for mental clarity without the crash of coffee.

🌾 Genmaicha
A gentle Japanese tea made with green tea and roasted rice.
Very grounding and easier on the Stomach than regular green tea.
Lovely for Spleen Qi deficiency and weak digestion.

🍋 Ginger & Lemon Tea
One of my FAVORITES.
Warms the middle burner, dispels cold, improves circulation, and supports digestion.
Wonderful during cold weather, early colds, cramps, or sluggish digestion.

✨ One thing I love about TCM is that we don’t just ask:
“Is this healthy?”

We ask:
👉 Is it warming or cooling?
👉 Does this person have excess or deficiency?
👉 Is digestion weak or strong?
👉 Is there Dampness, Heat, or Cold?

Because even healthy foods and teas may not be right for everyone at every time.
Your body constitution matters 💜

🍵 What's is your favourite tea?
