Today, we take a moment to reflect and remember the many brave women and men who have served — those who dedicated years of their lives, and those who made the ultimate sacrifice — to protect our safety, peace, and freedom.

Lest we forget. 🌺

🎃🕸️ Happy Spooky Season from your friendly neighbourhood Acupuncturist! 🕷️💀

🌿💊 A Short History of Chinese Patent Herbal Formulas

Before there were tidy little herbal pills, there were potions.
For thousands of years, TCM practitioners prescribed raw herbs — leaves, roots, bark, and flowers — to be boiled into decoctions (tāng 汤). These aromatic brews were powerful… but also time-consuming, messy, and sometimes, let’s be honest, pretty stinky. 😅

In the late Qing Dynasty (late 1800s), Chinese herbalists and pharmacists began experimenting with ways to make herbal medicine more portable, consistent, and accessible. Inspired by Western pill-making and traditional honeyed pastes (gao 膏), they created the first “patent medicines” (成药 chéng yào) — pre-prepared herbal formulas pressed into small pills or tablets.

✨ These “patent” formulas weren’t literally patented in the Western legal sense — the name just meant they were standardized and could be mass-produced under a trusted brand.

By the early 20th century, companies like Tong Ren Tang (founded in 1669, later modernized) in Beijing became famous for producing classic formulas like:
Liu Wei Di Huang Wan – nourishing yin for menopause
Yu Ping Feng San (in tablet form) – supporting immunity
Bao He Wan – aiding digestion
Xiao Yao San – anti-anxiety
Suan Zao Ren Tang – for sleep

These formulas allowed patients to take TCM herbs conveniently without needing to cook daily decoctions.

Today, modern patent herbal formulas are made under strict GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards — combining ancient wisdom with pharmaceutical precision. They preserve the essence of traditional herbal medicine, but make it easier for modern life — no cauldrons required.

👻 Stay balanced, stay spooky, and keep your Qi flowing smoothly!

This spooky season, while the chills are in the air and the treats are tempting, acupuncture can help keep your body balanced and your spirits high. 🕸️✨

🍂 Happy Thanksgiving 🍁

As I reflect on this season of gratitude, my heart is full. I am so thankful for my incredible patients who trust me to support them on their healing journeys — and for the power of Traditional Chinese Medicine that allows me to do so in such meaningful ways.

This year, I’m especially grateful for:
✨ The beautiful fertility journeys — from infertility and miscarriage to pregnancy, labour preparation, and the joyful baby photos that follow.
✨ Cosmetic acupuncture patients who radiate confidence and natural beauty, embracing treatments that enhance rather than freeze their expressions.
✨ Oncology patients finding relief from chemo-induced neuropathy and regaining comfort and vitality.
✨ Those navigating mental and emotional challenges — grief, loss, divorce, unemployment — who find calm, grounding, and renewed strength through acupuncture.
✨ Everyone improving digestion, sleep, pain, and menopausal transitions through holistic care.

Every story, every session, every smile reminds me why I do what I do. 💛
Thank you for allowing me to walk alongside you in your healing and wellness.

Wishing you all a peaceful and nourishing Thanksgiving filled with warmth, gratitude, and balance.

Today is World Mental Health Day
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the mind and body are never separate — every emotion flows through the body, influencing our organs, energy, and overall wellbeing.
TCM teaches that many physical issues can have emotional roots — stress that affects digestion, grief that tightens the chest, worry that clouds the mind. By restoring balance through acupuncture, we help both body and mind find harmony again.
🔬 What research shows:
Clinical studies and meta-analyses have found that acupuncture can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, support better sleep, and complement other treatments like therapy or medication.
Scientists believe these effects come from acupuncture’s ability to regulate stress hormones, balance neurotransmitters like serotonin and GABA, and reduce inflammation in the body.
When used alongside traditional mental health care, acupuncture may enhance overall well-being and resilience.
✨ Today, take a moment to pause, breathe, and offer yourself kindness.
