Why Fall Matters in TCM
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), seasonal transitions are considered an important time to restore balance and prepare for the months ahead.
Fall is traditionally associated with the Lung system and themes of respiratory wellness, vitality, emotional balance, and letting go.
As cooler weather approaches, it can be a wonderful time to slow down, nourish yourself and support your overall well-being.
Your “Soul Talk Time”
Wondering why your acupuncturist leaves the room after the needles are placed?
Once you’re comfortable, I’ll step out and give you quiet time to rest while the needles are retained. I like to call this your “Soul Talk Time.”
It’s your opportunity to relax, breathe, meditate, reflect, sleep-or simply do absolutely nothing for a little while.
I remain nearby and available if you need anything.
Sometimes one of the nicest parts of acupuncture is simply having permission to be still.
Want to Add Cupping?
Cupping can complement acupuncture and may help with upper-back, shoulder and ribcage tension, while promoting relaxation and local circulation.
If you’d like cupping included, please book a longer appointment to allow enough time for both treatments.
Eat With the Season
As autumn approaches, TCM traditionally encourages shifting toward warm, cooked and nourishing foods.
Think:
Pears & apples
Squash, pumpkin & root vegetables
Oats, rice & warm porridges
Soups, stews & broths
Ginger, garlic & green onion
Mushrooms
Walnuts & sesame seeds
One Last Fall Tip…
Grab a scarf!
In TCM, the neck and upper back are traditionally considered particularly vulnerable to wind and cold.
As temperatures drop, keeping your neck and shoulders warm and protected is a simple traditional seasonal wellness practice.
Stay cozy and enjoy the transition into fall!
