Balancing emotions is one of acupuncture’s superpowers and, one of Gabriel’s superpowers. Even if you come to see Gabriel for a physical condition, he will secretly/not secretly also take care of any related/underlying emotions.

Why? Because it’s impossible to be a human being and not have emotions. When we’re out of balance, it means somehow our emotions are out of balance too. By addressing the emotional dimension, we increase the chance for complete healing.

If you’re looking for support with your emotional balance and emotional health, call us at 212-473-3750.

Broccoli lovers unite! It’s winter time and a great time for broccoli. Before you get too excited, some broccoli do’s and don’ts. DO steam, lightly sauté or enjoy in a soup. DON’T eat it raw. Raw means cold (even if you’re saying Gabriel, what about room temp?) and it’s already cold outside. Arctic cold. That’s way too much cold for your digestion. Help your body out, don’t eat your broccoli raw.

Chinese Medicine functions:

1. Clears Heat & Toxins
• Helps reduce Liver Heat, toxic heat, and inflammatory conditions
• Useful for acne, skin rashes, irritability, and heat-related digestive issues

2. Supports Liver Qi Movement
• Mildly regulates Liver Qi, helping with stress, frustration, and emotional stagnation
• Beneficial when digestive symptoms (bloating, reflux) are stress-related

3. Strengthens the Spleen (in moderation)
• When lightly cooked, broccoli supports Spleen Qi and digestion
• Best for mild dampness and sluggish digestion

4. Resolves Phlegm & Dampness
• Helps reduce Phlegm-Heat and Damp accumulation
• Useful for metabolic imbalance, breast nodules, or GI stagnation patterns
