Wendy Leung, Registered Acupuncturist

Wendy Leung, Registered Acupuncturist As a Registered Acupuncturist and holistic healthcare practitioner, I help people prioritize and take charge of their health so they can feel and be better!

I work to find the root cause of ailments so that we can bring mind and body back to balance. As a Registered Acupuncturist and holistic healthcare practitioner, I help people understand and resolve their healthcare issues so they can feel and be better. In the past I had a career that was creative, challenging and collaborative but it never resonated with who I was at the core. I’d always felt driven to help people on a more personal level and I knew that something else out there would be the right fit. But change and transition can be a struggle and the stress of feeling “stuck” can manifest physical pain. Having grown up with healthcare that included Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), I went to see an acupuncturist to help manage my stress pain and those sessions ended up changing my life. Not only did my pain resolve but the more I learned about acupuncture the more I wanted to know and it wasn’t long before I realized that this was what I was truly meant to be doing. As TCM practitioners we are able to treat many common conditions that people often just accept and live with because they haven’t found an effective solution. Conditions like migraine headaches, menstrual cramps, chronic anxiety and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) can be debilitating and disruptive but they’re resolvable with the right treatment approach. I love my work and it’s very rewarding to be able to share my knowledge and empower people so they can take charge of their own health and improve their quality of life. I strongly believe that healthcare is a partnership between practitioner and client. I’m committed to working with you to provide relief and as well as to establish the root cause of your imbalance in order to foster long-term change and healing. I work primarily with acupuncture needles, supported by a variety of other TCM modalities including cupping, tuina massage, moxibustion, and take home therapies like auricular seed therapy, nutritional and lifestyle counseling. Every person is unique and the body’s needs shift from day to day, so treatments can vary from visit to visit.

This is Lek: the beautiful soul and Thai Medicinal massage therapist who took care of me during our stay on Koh Samui, alongside Dr Manta (TCMP). Like me, Lek’s a nerd when it comes to her medicine and I got to experience a few of the modalities she uses to treat her clients.

This extra long needle is used to perform Sak Ya — or Herbal Tattoo — a traditional Thai medicine practice that Lek explains originated from the Muslim communities in South Thailand.

The needle is disinfected and dipped in a multi-herb oil before being “tattooed” onto the skin in areas where there’s pain or stagnation.

It isn’t particularly a comfortable sensation. Reminds me of our traditional Chinese “combing needle” technique, or our plum blossom needle (though it doesn’t draw blood or leave an imprint).

If you ever find yourself in Koh Samui, I highly recommend visiting Lek at . She’ll take care of you and you’ll learn so many cool things too!

Loving learning about ancient medicines around the world!

These are tools for Tok Sen (ตอกเส้น) — a Northern Thai massage technique that literally means “tapping the energy lines,” using sound vibrations from wooden tools to clear stagnation and restore flow to the body.

So familiar, yet Thai Medicine’s energy lines aren’t the same as Chinese Medicine’s acupuncture meridians.

You might be apprehensive of hammering the body the same way you could be wary of acupuncture needles. But like acu, I found tok sen super relaxing, gentle and meditative.

It’s that time again…Your Chinese Grandma/Acupuncturist is wagging her finger because your otherwise fashionable ‘fit is missing a scarf.

Look at all those Wind-name acupuncture points in the upper back and neck! Not only do we use them to treat Wind conditions but they’re also prone to letting Wind in the body, stirring up said conditions (dizziness, stiff neck, etc).

So as we adjust to dropping evenings temps and blustery days, swap those sandals for sneakers and crew socks and bring a jacket/scarf. Your health will thank you.

I LOVE fruit.

In summer our fridge has multiple baskets of whatever’s in season (right now, cherries).

Aside from being great hydrators, fresh fruit also has healing properties from a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective:

Cherries nourish Blood
Watermelon, pear and grapes cool and nourish Yin fluids
Peaches, apricots and nectarines move Qi and Blood and nourish Yin fluids
Blueberries boost your brain and kidneys and drain Damp.

Lady Meridian wants to remind you: Room temperature fruits best support your digestive system. Nothing cold or icy, even in hot temps!

Go on and fruit up your summer 🙌🏼💖

Happy Lunar New Year – 新年快樂 !

The past few years Lady Meridian and I have shared classic new year’s greetings (written in Traditional Chinese characters and transliterated from Cantonese).

This year’s aren’t ones I’ve grown up saying so I’ve learned something new too!

一帆風順 (Yut Fan Foong Suhn) - May you have smooth sailing in all your endeavours

和氣生財 (Woh Hay Sung Choi) - May harmony cultivate you wealth

合家幸福 (Hup Ga Hung F**k) - May your family be happy and blessed

May this year of the Yin Wood Snake bring wisdom, transformation and creativity to you and your loved ones 💖🐍🎊

Happy new year! Lady Meridian wishes you a 2025 that is peaceful, intentioned and open. 💖🌸

P.S. In Cantonese, the two characters that form the word “happy” are 開心: 開 (open) + 心(heart).

P.P.S. Coco and Mango also wish you a year filled with cute cats 😻😻

There’s a Traditional Chinese Medicine phrase: “Wind is the carrier of a hundred diseases,” meaning blowing air usher pathogens into exposed or weak areas of the body.

From a Western perspective this speaks to airborne diseases entering through our nose/mouth, and from a TCM perspective it also refers to exposed neck, low back and ankles where blowing wind can push cold into the body.

Cold constricts blood vessels, ligaments, tendons, and muscles so in transitional fall weather it can cause stiff neck, back pain, seizing muscles in legs/feet, and headache, dizziness and vertigo if we’re not properly prepared.

So friendly PSA from your neighbourhood Chinese acupuncturist/personal stylist: Time for scarves, trench coats, and tall socks or boots!

And if any of those things already happened to you 👆🏼, book an acu session and we’ll warm you back up! Link’s in my bio.

This is my favourite photo with my Grandpa Danny Leung Chi Kong. I loved when I could make him smile and laugh like this – his whole face lit up.

Grandpa lived 92 strong and healthy years, then gratefully was able to choose his “byebye” time tonight, just shy of his 93rd birthday. The last photo is from this past May, with grandma too.

I hope we all are as fortunate to enjoy a long and healthy life (with amazing posture) the way he did.

Rest in peace, 爺爺. 💔💖
