Simple winter hacks to incorporate into your day.
Location
Cupping marks ~ often mistaken as bruises, the marks from cupping are actually quite different (and not as painful!). ⠀
⠀
Cupping helps to encourage the flow of fresh, oxygenated blood to the muscles and tissue. ⠀
⠀
Not everyone marks strongly after cupping, and those who do tend to find the intensity reduces with regular treatment! .

Yin & Pins 💫⠀
⠀
More than just a catchy name! 😜 ⠀
Yin Yoga is derived from the same theories and principals of Chinese Medicine. ⠀
The practice endeavours to address stagnation, tension and blockages in the channels through dedicated poses that support specific channels/meridians along the body.⠀
⠀
Some yoga teachers practice through a range of meridians in a class, and some focus on just a few ~ all dependant on their overall intention for that practice. ⠀
⠀
At the end of the class, during a Savasana, the pins are inserted at points that complement the practice and you float off in to a deep, deep relaxation... 😌♥️⠀
⠀
Movement and stillness ~ yoga and acupuncture ~ a match made in heaven really!⠀

Mind & Body 💆🏻♀️⠀
⠀
Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine takes huge consideration of this beautiful connection that we are still learning so much about.⠀
In fact, in Chinese Medicine, we often consider emotion as major factor of disease and illness. ⠀
⠀
Heart ➖ Joy⠀
Spleen ➖ Worry/pensiveness⠀
Lung ➖ Grief ⠀
Kidneys ➖ Fear⠀
Liver ➖ Anger ⠀
⠀
I always encourage my patients to ‘feel the feels’...don’t ever apologise for feeling upset, or angry, or overjoyed (yes, it happens!). Allowing ourselves to feel these emotions is an integral part of helping our body both physically and mentally process them. ...and of being human! ⠀
⠀
‘Mind-body connection’....have you checked in with yours? ⠀

Definitely feel like this little guy is getting a good run for his money at the moment! 😅 ⠀
⠀
During your treatment I may use a variety of different herbal liniments that help support the overall treatment objective. This may include;⠀
⠀
~ promoting circulation ⠀
~ warming or cooling of the area⠀
~ reducing inflammation⠀
~ pain management ⠀
⠀
So many of my patients comment on the beautiful smell of the liniments, most commonly including herbs such as cinnamon and peppermint 👃🏼⠀
⠀
Hands up if you’re a liniment lover! 🙋🏼♀️🙋🏽♂️⠀
