🌀 Emotions are reflections — not random.

In Chinese medicine, emotions aren’t separate from the body.
They’re mirrors of our organ health.

When the liver is inflamed — anger rises easily.
When the liver is congested — low mood, fatigue, and depression follow.

You’re not “too emotional.”
Your body is just speaking through your feelings.

🌿 Heal the liver → calm the mind → restore flow.
When the body finds balance, the emotions follow.

💢 Headaches — it’s not just in your head.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the liver is in charge of keeping energy and blood flowing freely throughout the body.
When that flow slows down or gets congested — from stress, tension, or emotional buildup — it’s like your system becomes a pressure cooker.
The result?
Headaches. Tight temples. That pulsing behind your eyes.
🌿 The fix isn’t just pain relief — it’s flow.
When we release the liver congestion through acupuncture and herbs, blood and Qi start moving again. The pressure drops, and the pain disappears naturally.
Balance the liver → free the flow → clear the head.

🌿 In Chinese medicine, the liver does more than detox.

It’s in charge of moving Qi and blood — especially through the female reproductive system.
So when blood flow slows down, it shows up everywhere:
💢 Painful periods
😤 PMS + mood swings
🩸 Irregular or heavy menstruation

In TCM, emotions and organs are inseparable.
Your emotions don’t just “happen” — they’re reflections of the organs’ state.
So to balance mood, you treat the liver.

How to activate and soothe the liver:
✨ Move — dance, stretch, walk in nature
🌱 Eat greens and fresh foods that support circulation
🌿 Use herbs + acupuncture to move Qi and calm stagnation

When the liver flows smoothly, so do your emotions — and your body.

✋ The most accurate TCM diagnosis starts at your wrist.

In Chinese medicine, we read the radial pulse on both wrists —
three positions, two depths, each with its own qualities.

What it reveals:

🩸 Blood flow quality to specific regions

🫀 Organ system health (how each is functioning in real time)

🧠 Emotional patterns tied to circulation and organ balance

It’s nuanced and precise, which is why most people haven’t experienced it — true pulse diagnosis takes years of apprenticeship with a master.

At Soul Acupuncture & Herbal, both of our herbal practitioners trained directly under a master pulse diagnostician. That lineage matters. It helps us see why symptoms are happening and tailor formulas that match your exact pattern — not a one-size-fits-all blend.

Your wrist is a map.
When we read it well, your body’s story becomes clear.

Tired of hearing acupuncture is just "woo-woo"? Let’s set the record straight! This ancient practice has been helping people for thousands of years—and now modern science is catching up. A 2025 study (PMID: 22741255) showed electroacupuncture significantly improved ankle stability in athletes, outperforming standard physiotherapy with p-values < 0.05 for key metrics like joint position sense. That’s right—acupuncture isn’t just vibes; it’s evidence-based healing! So next time someone calls it pseudoscience, tell them to check the research. Who’s ready to try it?
