Huge things are happening in the sphere of acupuncture research. There are several mechanisms of action that have been explored and show promising evidence. The latest of these is interstitium - the connective tissue webbing of space and fluids that runs under the skin. The research poses a tantalizing new direction of study into how acupuncture works.

Click the link in my bio to access a google doc linking all of the primary articles referenced in the recent NYT article about the interstitium! (The bottom link on my linktree)

And visit my website for testimonials from real clients about how acupuncture serves them.

Ever tried cupping?
Did you know there are several styles of cupping depending on the treatment goals?
πŸ™ Stationary cupping results in those circular bruises we've all seen on Michael Phelps. It is used to move stasis, clear pathogenic cold, and stop pain in muscle tissue
🀲 Sliding cupping is used to release stasis but is gentler on the body's resources so it is used when someone is fatigued and hurting. We also use it to clear pathogenic wind and heat.
🫧 Popping cupping is used to wake up a muscle group when it is not firing well. I use this often for folks with musculoskeletal pains, especially on either side of the spine. I may do stationary cupping on one side of the spine and popping cupping on the other, for example, when muscular imbalances are contributing to spinal misalignment. (And I often refer these patients to .chiro for adjustments, too!)

✨ 🩸Blood building salad!🩸✨
In Chinese medicine, blood serves many important roles that go beyond "the wet red stuff" and include more energetic phenomena. Blood deficiency signs depend on the affected channel system and could include:

πŸ‘€ Insomnia (especially difficulty falling asleep)
πŸ’ͺ Muscle cramps and being prone to overuse injury
😨 Anxiety
🏜️ Dry skin and nails
πŸ“œ Sallow complexion
πŸ˜• Trouble concentrating
πŸ₯Ά Cold, pale extremities
🩸 Light or absent periods
πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« Lightheadedness

This meal has tons of lovely blood-building foods!
Dark leafy greens, red beets, red beans, red fruit, seeds, nuts, eggs...
Eating foods like this plus getting plenty of fluids can help!

These symptoms plus marked fatigue could indicate early signs of what allopathic medicine would diagnose anemia. Regular annual blood work and wellness checks are important and acupuncture and diet are not a substitute for but rather a supplement to regular medical care.

Funny things I get up to... I took my silicone ear to an acupuncture demo at my kid's school cause her class is studying Asia this month. So now I've had to give the ear a bath πŸ˜…
I've had this little guy for 9 years, since I started learning to needle. And I think this might be his first bath? Idk he just didn't pick up lint before.
