How does acupuncture help babies? 🔎

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, babies are considered to be very active and have sensitive systems. Because of this, small imbalances can show quickly. Thankfully, babies also tend to respond quickly to treatment.

Digestive issues are very common in babies and acupuncture can help regulate the immature digestive system, which typically shows as gas, constipation, poor appetite, or difficulty feeding.

FYI this little lady enjoys the acupuncture, almost as much as she enjoys the Welcoming Team (Charlie & Oscar) 🩷🐾

Eileen here! Last week I did a reel about skincare bad habits to break. Today, let’s talk about a couple of habits you’ll definitely want to include in your routine for better skin ✨

1️⃣ Wash your Makeup Brushes Regularly 🫧 How often? Minimum once a month, and if you’re using more of a paste than a powder, every 2 weeks.

2️⃣ Sleep on Silk 🛌 Silk creates less friction, reducing “sleep wrinkles” and diminishing the look of fine lines. Silk pillowcases are less absorbent, meaning they won’t dehydrate skin as much as other fabrics and are less likely to harbour build-up. Silk pillowcases are also hypoallergenic, reducing allergies, irritation and inflammation.

Eileen here! Let’s talk about a couple of bad skin habits that you need to break.

1️⃣ Hot Showers ❌ Hot water dries your skin out, stripping it of vital natural oils and moisture.

What to Do Instead ✅ Aim for tepid water, gently pat your skin dry, and immediately apply moisturizer.

2️⃣ Talking with your Phone Against your Face ❌ Your phone can have 25,127 bacteria per sq.in. 😱 That’s more than a public toilet seat! Not to mention all of the dirt and grime. And every time you touch it to your face to take a call, you transfer some of it to your skin. EW!

What to Do Instead ✅ Go hands-free for calls and avoid touching your phone to your face.

Stay tuned! More bad habits to come…

NEW special 🌟 Look Younger Without Injectables! ✨

Acupuncture Facelift, aka Anti-Aging Facial Acupuncture, can reduce your forehead wrinkles, soften fine lines, firm up jowls, and improve skin tone, all helping you look younger! 

🏷️ SPECIAL: $220 per session

➡️ What we will do for you:

Each session will include Facial Acupuncture & Advanced Skin Care 

1️⃣ We will conduct an in-depth Traditional Chinese Medicine assessment.

2️⃣ You’ll receive an acupuncture treatment using the best and most expensive Seirin needles from Japan. Fine needles are used to treat the entire face, including the chin line, neck and décolleté. The stimulation from the needles increases collagen and elastin production, so fine lines disappear, deeper lines will soften, pores tighten, and lines in the neck will soften dramatically, creating an overall younger and smoother-looking appearance.

You’ll also get  additional needles in the body to further enhance your complexion. As many body meridians run through the face, receiving facial acupuncture treatment is actually a health treatment for the entire body. Other health concerns (e.g., back pain, digestive issues, menstrual issues, etc.) are also addressed. 

3️⃣ The treatment includes a spa-level facial. It begins with relaxing warm towel therapy and facial gua sha to stimulate muscle tone. At the end of the acupuncture treatment, you will enjoy an uplifting exfoliation mask followed by nourishing serums to firm up the skin. 

This may be the natural alternative to injectables you’ve been looking for.

These vegan & gluten-free black bean burgers are so good, even meat-eating men enjoy them! 😋

🍔 Black Bean Burger Recipe 🫘 modified from minimalistbaker.com

➡️ Ingredients
• Half a large onion, finely diced
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 3/4 cup peeled & boiled sweet potato
• 1 pinch each salt & pepper
• One 15-ounce can black beans (rinsed and drained)
• 1 cup cooked quinoa (or cooked gluten-free rice)
• 1 cup grated raw beet
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp chili powder (or sub extra cumin)
• 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp coconut aminos (optional)
• 1/2 cup almond meal/almond flour
• 1/4 cup gluten-free oats

➡️ Directions
1️⃣ In a small skillet over medium heat add 1 tbsp olive oil. Once hot, add the onion and sauté, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until onions are slightly browned – about 3 more minutes.
2️⃣ Remove from heat and add black beans, cooked sweet potato and mash together, leaving some texture.
3️⃣ Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl and add the quinoa, beets, spices and stir together. Add a dash of coconut aminos (optional).
4️⃣ Lastly, add the almond meal and oats to the mixture and mix until firm enough to form into patties, adding more if needed. Set in the fridge to chill while your oven preheats to 350F (325F for convection ovens).
5️⃣ On parchment paper, arrange burgers on a baking sheet and brush the tops with olive oil. Bake 35-45 minutes, gently flipping at the halfway mark
6️⃣ Serve on small buns or atop mixed greens with desired toppings.
