The essence of acupuncture and East Asian Medicine is Yin and Yang. Reaching and movement, followed by resting and restoring, hopefully in equal measure ☯️

Honestly, I haven’t been achieving that balance lately. As many of you know, I’m a one-woman show at Chee Dynamic, and that takes a whole lot of Yang energy. I manage the clinic, treat patients, handle my own billing, deal with insurance companies, and somehow still show up with a semi-professional presence on social media… even though I don’t actually like it here and I’m pretty sure it’s not great for any of us, but I digress 🫠

Don't get me wrong, I I really enjoy the work. But it’s a lot of outward energy. A lot of reaching and movement. A lot of Yang.

So for the rest of the year, I'm going to restore the balance. I'm taking a dose of my own medicine with a lot of intentional resting and restoring. A lot of Yin 🌙✨

I hope that you all find some time to lean into the Yin moments this season. Take care of yourselves and slow down when you can. I'll see you in the New Year!

Sharing this lovely patient review that completely made my day ⭐

“I’ve been seeing Dr. Karin for weekly acupuncture sessions for 4 months, and it’s made such a difference for my stress and anxiety. She has such a calm and grounding presence, really listens, and takes time to explain everything in as much detail as I want. I always leave feeling more balanced and relaxed. Highly recommend.”

Holding space for people in this way is truly the heart of my work. Thank you to everyone who trusts me with your care. It is an honor to work with you 💕

What if your first acupuncture session in the New Year was at work? 📍

As everyone starts planning for next year, it’s a good time to think about what workplace wellness could actually look like in 2026. Real support. Real care. Something your team can feel immediately.

That’s why I offer Workplace Wellness Acupuncture. I come to your office and set up a relaxing mini-clinic so your team can get stress relief, pain support, and a moment to breathe in the middle of the workday. It’s simple, it’s restorative, and it makes a noticeable difference in how people feel.

Most teams tell me the same thing: “I didn’t realize how much I needed that.”

If your company is starting to plan for next year’s wellness offerings, this is a great time to reach out. January fills quickly, and I’d love to support your team in feeling calmer, clearer, and more grounded in 2026 💓

Send me a message if you’d like more details or want to get something on the calendar.

🌊 Nourish Your Kidney Qi 🌊

In East Asian medicine, winter is associated with the Water element and is governed by the Kidneys. Kidney Qi is the foundation of life—it governs your resilience, longevity, and your ability to adapt to challenges. Water symbolizes flow, wisdom, and stillness. Like water adapts to the shape of its container, winter invites us to slow down, preserve our energy, and align with the natural rhythm of rest and reflection.

This is a time to nourish your Kidney Qi and align yourself with the restorative qualities of the season.

🌊 How to Nourish Your Kidney Qi 🌊

-Slow Down: Prioritize rest and mindfulness to replenish your reserves.
-Stay Warm: Protect your lower back and feet from the cold to support Kidney health.
-Eat Kidney-Nourishing Foods: Include black beans, seaweed, walnuts, sesame seeds, miso, and warming spices like ginger.
-Come in for an acupuncture appointment! I take extra care to tonify the Kidney Qi with acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine this time of year. With each session, I choose points that will prepare your body, mind, and spirit this season.

The clinic will be closed and I’ll be out of the office December 17 through January 2.

Acupressure for Digestion! Thanksgiving is tomorrow, and let's be real—many of us will indulge in rich foods and maybe a bit too much wine. Honestly, same! 🙋‍♀️

If you find yourself feeling bloated or dealing with an uncomfortable tummy post-feast, try this simple acupressure point to support digestion and relieve gas and bloating!

👉 Find Stomach 36 (ST36):
-Locate the middle of your kneecap.
-Measure one hand-width (about four fingers) below it.
-Move slightly to the outside (lateral) edge of your upper shin.
-The point will feel a little tender—that's how you know you've found it!

🌀How to use it:
-Apply firm but gentle pressure with your thumb.
-Massage in a circular motion for 1-2 minutes on each leg.
-Breathe deeply as you massage to help your body relax.

This point is known for its powerful ability to support the stomach and spleen, boost digestion, and ease discomfort. Give it a try and enjoy your meal with a little less worry! Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍁

Feel free to share this tip with anyone who could use some extra digestive support tomorrow :) And if you need some more in depth care, schedule an appointment at the link in my bio!

If you live in the PNW, you probably know the struggle: year-round allergies, sinus pressure that won’t quit, and now that we’re entering heater season… dry, blocked nasal passages. Yeah. It’s a whole thing 🤧

Acupuncture works wonders for this. I often use a point directly beside the nose called Ying Xiang, which translates to “Welcome Fragrance.” Doesn’t that sound lovely? I can breathe easier just saying the point name 👃🌺

By reducing inflammation, opening the sinuses, and calming the pathways that make everything feel tight and congested, most people feel relief during the session — sometimes within minutes.

If you’re dealing with seasonal allergies that never seem to end, chronic sinus pressure, or that classic damp PNW congestion, acupuncture can help you breathe easier and feel clearer fast. Your nose knows you could use a little extra love ❤️

Acupressure Point for Digestive Issues & Menstrual Disorders: This is one of my favorite acupressure points. It is on the spleen meridian, but it also intersects with the liver and kidney meridians, making it super duper powerful and a 3-for-1 deal.

Point name: SPLEEN 6⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📍Location: on the inside of the lower leg, four finger widths up from the highest point of the ankle bone, in the depression behind the shin bone. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Routine: gently massage or hold this point with direct pressure for 1-3 minutes. Take deep breaths while you press on this point and notice a calm energy wash over your body. You can do this routine one side at a time, or you can try to hold both sides at the same time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨This point treats: abdominal pain and bloating, all digestive disorders, nausea/vomiting, water retention, fatigue, all menstrual disorders, prolonged labor, dizziness, insomnia, night sweats, infertility, and urinary disorders/frequent UTIs.

**Caution: don’t use this acupressure point if you are pregnant.

Hi, it’s me 👋 and today is my birthday!

For the occasion, please enjoy this very silly photo of me biking around Ireland. Truly the kind of glamour one expects on their special day.

I’ve been in Seattle for over ten years now, and this city has become home in a way I never could have predicted. It’s where I built my life, my career, and this acupuncture practice that somehow grew into a whole community. I’m so grateful for every patient who has trusted me, every neighbor who’s cheered me on, and every person who has helped shape Chee Dynamic into what it is today.

My first acupuncture treatment all those years ago changed the trajectory of my life, and building Chee Dynamic in the heart of Belltown is one of my proudest accomplishments. Serving this community feels like the most meaningful way I could spend my days.

Here’s to another year of learning, growing, and helping my neighbors feel better in their bodies. Thanks for being part of my Seattle story. 💚

When I ask to see your tongue during an acupuncture visit, sometimes I accidentally stick my tongue out to show you what I mean. I can’t help it. You probably don’t want to see my tongue as much as I want to see yours 👅

Your tongue is basically a microcosm of your body. Different areas reflect your Heart, Lungs, Spleen/Stomach, Liver, and Kidneys, which means I can get quick insight into what’s happening internally.

Here’s what I’m looking at:
👅 The areas of the tongue that correspond to each organ system
👅 The color, shape, and moisture that show your body’s internal “weather”
👅 The coating, which tells me how digestion and inflammation are doing

It’s quick and surprisingly accurate. So yes… stick out your tongue at me, and I’ll try to keep mine inside my mouth. No promises tho 😆
