Qi is the source of all movement in the body: fluids, energy, and matter ascending, descending, entering, and leaving.
It circulates throughout the body following prescribed pathways, called channels or meridians.
Qi protects the body against external and internal pathogenic factors. When qi is insufficient or stagnant, the body declines and disease can develop.
The goal of Chinese medicine is to ensure that qi is able to move freely, that it is moving in the correct direction, and that there is an abundance of it in the body.
We acquire qi through the food, liquids, and air that we consume. Certain herbs can stimulate it as well. We can manipulate qi flow in the body through acupuncture, which stimulates points on the meridians. Chinese medicine and acupuncture are tools that we apply to change a person’s body Feng Shui and we don’t treat the problem necessarily. We treat the person.

Plants, trees and even inanimate​ objects such as gemstones can exhibit an aura. Your aura is a ​body of energy​ generated around you and from Chinese medicine, we called that the Defensive Qi.
In a book by
Deborah Craydon, C.F.E.P.
And Warren Bellows, LIC.AC, a new hypothesis, proposed in 2004
by Dr. Shui Yin Lo (The Biophysics Basis for Acupuncture and Health) mentioned that meridians
as well as their acupuncture points are made up of a polarized medium that Dr. Lo says is
likely to be water clusters.
The term water cluster
is defined as approximately 100 million water molecules combining to form a “cluster" that is a
dipole, i.e., negatively charged on one end and positively charged on the other. When these clusters (aligned end to end) are stimulated by an
acupuncture needle, heat, or electromagnetic waves, electric fields, and/or sound waves are generated.
These waves travel through the meridians to various organs that resonate with similar water clusters in that organ that connect to the
"underground
waterways" of the meridians that send
streams of life force to new regions of the body. He says that the resonance frequency of stable water clusters is
between 0.1 Hz and 100 Hz. This is the same range
required for electroacupuncture
(stimulation of the meridian with a minute electrical impulse).
Clinical tests have shown that biochemical reactions occur within the body when electroacupuncture, which only moves electrons and ions, is used.
As we shift our consciousness from the Newtonian realm of molecules to the field of
electrons and ions (which is the realm of quantum physics, where particles
are smaller than 10 to the power of -33 and move faster than the speed of light), Chinese acupuncture is beginning to gain validation through Western concepts of science.

Chinese medicine, joy and laughing is connect with the Heart-Fire Element. The effect of laughing, playfulness, and joyfulness in improving the Energy of the Fire Element cannot be underestimated.
According to Charles A. Moss M.D from his book , comedies
help us to
"stoke the fire." Simply smiling can enhance the immune response. The medicine of laughter increases oxygen utilization, improves
circulation, relaxes the facial muscles afterward, and can be as aerobically useful as other cardiovascular exercises.
Laughter can lessen pain
perception, enhance immunity, and improve stress adaptation. In a
study of college students, those who listened to a humorous tape response a stressful situation with lower blood pressure than did those
who listened to a stress reduction tape.
The average adult laughs fewer than thirty times a day. Stanford
School of Medicine psychiatrist William Fry estimates that people with
a healthy response to stress can laugh up to four hundred times a day.
According to the same author and book, he suggests for those who do not laugh easily and often it is important to actively stimulate this activity such as talk to friends who make them laugh and to
rent humorous movies or read books of jokes. They need to let themselves act in a silly fashion, recall how they were as a children, to collect things that make them laugh and look at them once a
week. Most importantly, they should see if they can gently laugh at
themselves and not take themselves so seriously.
This reminds me a word “biohack” I read from a book. It talks about we can upgrade our minds and bodies and fully control our own biology.
I start to apply that idea to my practice almost a year ago by using acupuncture or some herbal remedies as tools to interfere patients chronic problems such as irregular me**es, insomnia and headaches. I found out patients’ complications follow a up and down flow and show up at a remarkable time. Many patients successfully break that cycle of “feeling bad”. Begin with actively 😊 today!

Great news from a current fertility patient. She’s only on some supplements and Chinese herbs. 4 acupuncture sessions so far since last month. She’s effectively good on taking her daily temperature, doing exercises and cooking for herself. 👩🏻‍🍳Impressively she gets 7 follicles naturally just in a month. We might end up having more after stimulating injections. 🥰Wish we a good luck this time 🍀

Another patient is ready to “graduating”. She’s been coming once a month for a full body maintenance. From the first picture to the last, we see the changes.
The first picture was her nearest visit and last one was her first visit. Her trapezius muscles are full with energy ✨
She was suffering intense menstrual cramps. She had to take many pain medications in order to function on her first two to three days. Now she notices she’s able to stop taking her meds and haven’t have a bad cramp for 5 months.
Does acupuncture help for skin quality? Weight lose? Facial rejuvenation? Yes too all of these questions. Acupuncture is returning you back to your self. Many patients start to practice Taiji, Qigong, Reiki and Exercise. I said to them, we might become coworkers in the future. 🫣
Don’t let anybody rule your body. Listen to yourself.

My amazing fertility patient is coming weekly for IVF support. She will possibly start a cycle as soon as she gets her period. I ask her to record her body temperature everyday and send me a message. Her temperature post-ovulation were not rising as we wanted.
In Chinese medicine language, I see her Body temperature is Kidney Yang Deficiency. I offer her You Gui Wan, a Chinese herbal formula that focusing on Kidney Yang deficiency type of fertility and recently I give this herb to a patient who’s experiencing light headed (Kidney Yang deficiency type).
This patient is doing acupuncture once a week and the same time goes to see a fertility specialist. She told me the medical assistant didn’t want to release her hormonal test result because that person believes she won’t able to understand the test. Please Don’t assume patients knowing nothing, they are the masters and experts of their own body. 😡
I did Chong Mai acupuncture treatment yesterday and strong moxa stimulating on Du Mai (my both hands smell like ci******es afterward).
Human body is so amazing! She texts me today and show me her body temperature rises to 37 Celsius degree. 🥳
Hopefully we will get a good news this time!

3 weeks transitioning, patient wasn’t able to eat and experience tons of body aches and she is nauseated whenever she’s eating. Three weeks, she’s been able to eat a small amount and starts to gain some weights.
Still remember when she came to see me the first a few times, she was in tremendous pain and acupuncture rarely helped at first and she had to go urgent care every month. Until her 8th acupuncture visit, her pain was SUDDENLY decreased.
I see many people are concerning if they need to do acupuncture forever. Once they have 3-4 sessions and they stop coming and a few weeks later, they are feeling horrible and don’t know why. Most of them honestly are not ready to self-discharging. Their bodies are tense and their minds are busy and stressed. They ask us, “how you know I am ready or not? “ Because we are treat and observe different human beings everyday.
We frequent get a haircut to maintain our appearance and get new outfits to please our sensory organs and brain but mean to our body. Sometimes sleep helps? When the brain is not fully controlling our behaviors then body can fix itself. How come body stop fixing it own problems, people are not doing anything to satisfy their body, body is overwhelmed. What’s the next? Body attacks itself and we start to see autoimmune disorders and moreover, cancer.
I see people have amazing recovering abilities. They are very calm and not have many complaints. I call them “alkaline people”. They get better
almost immediately after one session. 🤩 I normally say to them, “you don’t need many treatments. You are doing great. Maybe do acupuncture once every a few months for a tuneup.” Almost all of them are physically active and good with their diet. They already pay extra attention to their own body and mental health before come to visit us.
Yesterday I saw a patient and that was her 3rd visit. I questioned her, do you see yourself happier than before? Because I see you are. She said, her therapist mentioned her the same. She finds herself let things go quickly now.
We are not just live in 2022 and expire 2023. Be kind to your body.
