Exercise is ESSENTIAL to being healthy! It is non-negotiable, no movement will lead to problems. On the other hand, too much exercise has its own list of consequences. At the end of the day it is about BALANCE!
-

-
The quantity and quality of exercise varies from person to person. It is based on your age, body-type, and baseline of health. But EVERYONE has to move in some form. From gentle movements like yoga or qigong, to high-intensity exercise, the style should be appropriate for you.
-
—
-
Too sedentary of a lifestyle can result in a vicious cycle of fatigue, weakness, and weight gain that makes it hard to start exercising. Acupuncture helps break this cycle by increasing energy, metabolic rate, and well-being so that you are inclined to exercise. You gain momentum and get in the habit, and next thing you know you have leveled up!
-
—
-
Over-exercising can also be detrimental to your health. Especially when we consistently use energy drinks and pre-workout products. With these, we can easily run our bodies down unconsciously. The result of this habit is depleted adrenal reserves, i.e. severe fatigue, as well as a propensity for injury. It can take a LONG time to recover from this kind of long-term habit, and recovery is not fun. Acupuncture can quicken recovery, and treat the mentioned complications in the infographic.

Watch out for the signs of imbalance with respect to movement, and catch it before it gets bad!

Diet in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a unique perspective. The characteristics of food are based on how they affect our body. Learning about food in this way allows us to be informed on how to life in balance with the environment, the seasons, and with our unique physiology.
-
—
-
Directionality is the parts of the body food influences. For example, eating pears are good for the throat, which are related to the lung system in TCM. All food and drink we consume goes to a specific part of our bodies.
-
—
-
Temperature is not the literal temperature of the food, but the energetics of the food. The effect of eating a certain food has on our bodies. Pear, for example is cooling, and may benefit someone with a heat condition in the throat (sore throat, loss of voice, etc.)
-
—
-
Flavor of the food describes the manner it affects our bodies. For instance, bitter flavors have a downward effect. Think about how if you drink black coffee, it commonly prompts a visit to the bathroom.
-
—
-
Watermelon is a fruit that is in-season in the Summer, and happens to treat heat conditions effectively. It is common in the Summer to get illnesses involving heat because the environment is hot. Eating watermelon keeps us hydrated, promotes urination, and cools the heart, bladder, and stomach systems according to TCM. Not to mention it is refreshing and delicious.
-
—
-
Looking at food through an alternate lens can help us when making decisions about what we should eat, and how it might affect our bodies.. For better or for worse..
-

Living in harmony with nature is the best way to stay healthy and thrive! So go get some watermelon today!

The lifestyle aspect of our lives is usually where most of our health problems stem; making it one of the most important factors to improving health outcomes. Lifestyle changes can be, and most often IS the key in treating disease.
-
—
-
The goal is to have and maintain a balanced lifestyle that allows us to be healthy and enjoy life. It’s not about being perfect, but the sum of all of our habits equals the future version of ourselves. Meaning, if continuing things the way that they are now, what would the condition of your life be in 3 months? 1 year? 5 years?
-

-
The purpose of this content is to get you thinking about where you land in the several different aspects of “lifestyle” and maybe illuminate what’s out of balance.

Introducing the start of my 5-part content series about the basics of good baseline health.
-
—
-
The main takeaway from this series is that . For better or for worse, the choices we make and the things we do dictate how healthy we are. In this day and age, it comes down to educating ourselves and making educated decisions on what will be good or bad for our health.
-
—
-
I've come up with five aspects of human life that lay the foundations for good overall health. Balance between sleep, lifestyle, mental health, diet, and exercise/movement habits give our bodies the best chance to thrive. Imbalance leads to health challenges and struggle.
-
—
-
Many people aren't aware that the medicine I practice is very much preventative. In this context, I have found that what I do reliably helps people find better balance between these foundations of health. By bringing awareness around these aspects of life in my consultations and educating the patient on how their body works through my lens, people are empowered to improve their health by their own means and with the help of acupuncture and its associated treatments.
-

-
Which foundations of health could you improve on in your life?? I will be going into detail for each aspect to get us all re-thinking the basics!

Finding an acupuncturist that you like can be a challenge. I know that I’m selective on who I chose to work on me. When your preferred acu doc isn’t available anymore or you’re starting out, it’s can be a bit of an obstacle.
-
—
-
The good AND bad thing about my profession is that there are so many ways to accomplish the same goal. Meaning, out of ten acupuncturists, there could be ten different styles of practice. It is a healing art and like art, everyone has their own unique approach that they have synthesized over their career. That being said, it doesn’t make choosing a new practitioner any easier.
-
—
-
The way I practice is based in “Japanese Meridian Therapy” which is generally known as a more gentle/subtle approach. I incorporate more direct methods when necessary, but for the most part, it’s less invasive than most other techniques.
-
—
-
If you have ever experienced my style, you know that it is relatively painless and effective. My best treatments include lots of moxibustion, gua sha, cupping, and manual therapy. These other modalities are generally underrated in my opinion and are just as important as the acupuncture.

If you’re in need of an acu doc, and curious if we would be a good fit, check out my testimonial highlights on my page to get a better picture. Or, let’s chat on the phone. Book a free consultation on my booking page at your convenience (link in bio).

It's important to me as a healthcare practitioner to make my services accessible. Here at Source Acupuncture in Pacific Beach, I am able to provide low-cost treatments. I am also taking insurances under American Specialty Health Network (ASH) which is one of the most common providers in California.
-
--
-
Community acupuncture is a special way to provide care at a lower cost. Treatments are done in one large healing space with several other patients in cozy recliner chairs. This way, you and your friends or family can get treated at the same time, and you can share the healing vibe with the others in the room.
-
--
-
I encourage anyone who has health insurance benefits that cover acupuncture under ASH to see if they can be utilized here! This network provider covers most muscular-skeletal pain, nausea, and abdominal pain. Plans do vary so make sure to verify with our staff before making an appointment.
-
--
-
I work here Monday and Wednesday evenings from 3pm to 8pm (last appointment is 7pm). Visit www.source.family for more information or to book an appointment. I would love to share this offering with you!
