Today I step into my third trimester with deep gratitudeā€”for this pregnancy, for my body, and for the wisdom that surrounds me.

After a lot of contemplation, Iā€™ve chosen to plan a home birth again. My first home birth was intense and painful, and also deeply magical, empowering, and profoundly natural. Welcoming my daughter into the world at home shaped me in ways I still carry.

As I prepare to meet my son, it feels aligned to offer him that same gentle beginningā€”entering this world in the space that is already homeā€”if that is what is destined to unfold.

Iā€™m especially grateful to walk this pregnancy as a Doctor of Chinese medicine, rooted in the understanding of gentle, preventative, and supportive care. To know the value of subtle medicine, nourishment, and listening deeply to the body has been an anchor for me throughout this journey.

Iā€™m thankful to be held by a community of like-minded midwives and health professionalsā€”people who guide, support, and walk alongside me with shared values and trust in the natural process of birth.

Walking forward with intention in a Fire Horse yearā€”honoring the movement of Fire, and the importance of steady, grounded support as we approach the final trimester.

When Dr. Ilana began offering facial acupuncture, we knew we wanted a high-quality, clean, botanical skincare line to truly enhance the benefits of each treatment. We were thrilled to discover .co, an AAPI women-founded and women-led brand created by two TCM practitioners based in the Bay Area.

YINA embodies personalized, modern wellness rituals rooted in traditional wisdom and inspired by Chinese Medicine. Their products are used in Dr. Ilanaā€™s facial acupuncture treatments and are also available for purchase at the clinic. Swipe through to see some of their deluxe offerings āœØ

Congratulations to Dr. Ilana, who recently got engaged!!

Dr. Ilana is out of town for the next two weeks but will be back on February 17th. When she returns she will be offering 10% off all facial treatments for the remainder of February. The face is so often overlooked in self-care, yet itā€™s one of the most expressive and energetically sensitive parts of the body. Facial acupuncture is a unique way to give your face and neck intentional love, restore glow, and reconnect with yourself.

Did you know you can use Chinese herbs for facial steaming to help with sinus congestion?

After nearly three weeks of a stubborn head cold, alongside acupuncture and herbal formulas, my practitioner reminded me of something simple and deeply familiar: steaming.

Instant childhood flashback.
When I was congested as a kid, my mom would boil linden and mint, place the bowl on the floor, and have me lean over it with a towel draped over my head. Old-school. Effective. Comforting.

Coming back to this practice now felt groundingā€”like my body remembered before my mind did. And Iā€™m happy to say Iā€™m almost through the last bits of congestion .

Meanwhile, my Western doctor recommended antibioticsā€¦ without even seeing me.
This experience was a gentle reminder that thereā€™s wisdom in traditional practices, especially when they support the body instead of overriding it.

Today a patient surprised me with a hand-sewn maternity dress !

26 weeks pregnant, feeling deeply grateful to walk a path of service and love ā€” and to know that energy is held and felt by my little one.
