✨ New year, new routines — and your body deserves support as you step into fresh goals. Whether you’re moving more, stretching deeper, or simply trying to feel better day‑to‑day, Wan Hua Oil is a great option.

In TCM, this herbal liniment is known for moving qi and blood, easing stagnation, and soothing sore or overworked muscles — perfect for those early‑January resolution moments. A little goes a long way in helping your body stay open, warm, and ready for the habits you’re building this year.

Ask us about it next time you’re in the clinic and grab a bottle for yourself — we love helping you support your resolutions from the inside out 🌿✨

✨ One week into 2026 — how are you feeling? Whether you’re crushing your goals or easing into the year, we’re here to help you keep the momentum going and feel good along the way!

So many of us want more movement this year — walking more steps, training for a marathon, or simply getting outside more often. To support your body as you build those habits, today we’re using BL60 (Kunlun) with the different edges of our copper Gua Sha tool — the gift we’re giving with treatments this month.

BL60 is known in TCM for easing tight calves, ankle tension, low‑back discomfort, and overall mobility, making it a perfect point for anyone upping their movement in the new year. A few mindful strokes can help your legs feel lighter, more open, and ready for whatever goals you’re stepping into.

Let’s keep moving, keep feeling good, and keep supporting your body with intention this year ✨🌿
