Yin-yang symbol spotted in the wild in Downtown Moncton! The four properties of yin and yang are that they are opposite, interdependent, balanced, and, since they are two aspects of the same thing, can transform into each other. https://www.monctonacupuncture.ca/index.php/about-acupuncture/key-concepts/yin-and-yang

Thank you so much! I just received notification that I have been nominated for the category of Acupuncture. Though I have been practicing since 2007, I've only been up and running in Moncton since July, 2025, so this really means a lot to me! ❤️

The Small Intestine channel starts at the pinky, runs up the arm, zigzags over the shoulder blade, up the neck, and enters the ear. This point is used to treat conditions on the opposite side of the channel like shoulder and neck pain. Since it enters the ear, it treats deafness and tinnitus. It also clears heat, making it good for malaria, night sweats, and fevers.

Happy Spring to you! Today is the equinox, a special day that only happens twice a year, a time of equal day and night, equal yin and yang. We are still getting a little snow, but the days are getting longer, and the first flowering bulbs are just beginning to surface!

Located on the inner wrist, this is one of only 9 points on the Heart channel. This point has a strong calming effect on the emotions, making it a good choice for anxiety, sadness, and depression. It also directly affects the heart, treating palpitations by regulating its rhythm. In Chinese medicine five element theory, the sensory organ associated with the heart is the tongue. Because of this connection, this point is used for loss of voice, stuttering, and post-stroke speech disorders.

Focusing on improving sleep, diet and exercise may work together to add more years to life, according to a new study.
