I was just explaining this to a patient the other day.
Muscle and tendon = contractile tissue, can regain original elasticity after damage
Ligament = non contractile tissue, will not regain original elasticity after injury.
This is why people who have ligament damage from say a
Badly sprained ankle report weak ankles that are much more prone to collapse.

Tendon Vs Ligament ✅

🦴 TENDON

→ Connects muscle to bone
→ Made of dense, parallel collagen fibers (very strong, low elasticity)
→ Transfers force generated by muscle contraction to bone
→ Enables movement at joints
→ Poor blood supply → heals slowly when injured
→ Examples: Achilles tendon, biceps tendon

🦴 LIGAMENT

→ Connects bone to bone
→ Made of collagen fibers with slight elasticity
→ Provides joint stability and alignment
→ Prevents excessive or abnormal joint movement
→ More elastic than tendons, but still strong
→ Examples: ACL, PCL, medial collateral ligament

⭐ KEY DIFFERENCE TO REMEMBER

→ Tendon = Movement (muscle pulls bone)
→ Ligament = Stability (bone holds bone)

How many of my patients can recognise the mechanisms described in this article?
Every day in clinic I explain the effects of the constrictive nature of cold and the expansive nature of warmth or heat and the various effects on our body.
Ranging from the effects on pain, digestion and uterine health ( reproduction, menstrual pain and other symptoms)
Really, I’m like a broken record sometimes ☺️

🌿 Men’s Health Matters in Fertility 🌿

When it comes to conception, the focus often falls on women — but men’s health plays an equally vital role in creating a healthy pregnancy. 💫

Around 40–50% of fertility challenges involve male factors such as s***m quality, motility, or overall wellbeing. Lifestyle, stress, diet, sleep, and environmental factors can all impact s***m health and hormonal balance.

The good news? Supporting male fertility is absolutely possible. Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine can help by improving circulation, reducing stress, balancing hormones, and enhancing s***m quality naturally. 🌱

Fertility is a shared journey — one that thrives when both partners nurture their health, energy, and emotional wellbeing. When men prioritise their wellness, it strengthens not only the chances of conception but also the foundation for a healthy pregnancy and family. 💕

🌸 Supporting Fertility Naturally with Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine 🌸

For many women trying to conceive (TTC), the journey can feel overwhelming — filled with both hope and heartache. Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) offer a gentle, holistic approach to support your body and mind through this deeply personal process. 💕

Acupuncture helps to balance hormones, regulate menstrual cycles, improve blood flow to the uterus and ovaries, and reduce stress — all key factors for healthy conception. Chinese herbal medicine works alongside acupuncture to nourish the body, support ovulation, and strengthen overall reproductive health. 🌿

Beyond the physical benefits, acupuncture provides a moment of calm — a chance to breathe, reconnect, and restore emotional balance.

Every woman’s path to motherhood is unique. TCM honours that individuality, offering care that meets you where you are — with compassion, balance, and hope. ✨
