We had a nice dry and warm summer this year! As we are heading into the fall, day light will start to shorten and days will cool off bringing more dampness. For those with kid
s returning to school, schedule will increase and get busier. These change will all contribute to challenge our immune system especially if we had a busy summer and haven’t properly refuel and taken the time to nourish ourselves.
Like we do for our cars, it is always good to give your body a tune up to make sure things are balanced and aligned and that everything is running smoothly to avoid more serious issues in the future. Your general practitioner does regular blood work and examination to monitor the condition of your health.
In Chinese Medicine, we do the same by looking at sign and symptoms and observing your tongue and taking your pulse. In addition, we consider the natural cycle of nature (seasons, light cycle, time of day, etc) when assessing a person’s overall health.
How many of us have headaches with change in atmospheric pressure, or achy joints in cold damp weather? Others suffer seasonal allergies or get more frequent cold and flues. The weeks leading up to a change in season is the best time to come in for a seasonal tune up for acupuncture treatment to strengthen your body so that it can better adjust and adapt to change, whether it be change in schedules, season, or life in general. Maintenance and prevention helps to void off break downs and extensive repair that may be too far down the line to reverse.
You can change your car but not your body!
* Fall is the season of the Metal elements which pertains to the lungs and large intestine organ.
