"…there have been many studies investigating the role of stress on immune system function. These studies have shown that stress mediators can pass through the blood-brain barrier and exert their effects on the immune system. Thus, the effect of stress on the immune system is now an accepted relationship or association."
Curious how research plays out? The article is here:

We have all heard that toxic thoughts hurt the thinker more than the subject of those thoughts but the effects on your health are real. There’s more to floating above it than foolishness. It may be life saving.

Sounds far fetched but there's a connection. Water is@the material by which blood pressure is regulated by the kidney and adrenal gland. If you're not drinking enough water and you have anxiety or panic attacks, you might need to be drinking more. Water quality matters and clean, clear filtered water is best.

But there's more to it. Being in nature and being near water has a calming effect on the nervous system. Floating in water (if you are capable and safe), can transform you. If you know and love any surfers, you know that they need water to feel happy and whole. Swimming can feel pretty devine when you do it regularly and any water sports you enjoy can be just as good.

And finally - there's the connection between water and the subconscious. Water is the symbol of psychological transformation. In water, as in our minds, we can both seek and hide. Spending time in and around water can really change your perspective.

If you're feeling under water or overwhelmed, acupuncture can help. Get started feeling better today.

Are you sick of the work week already? You might not be alone. The world seems to be over working from home and teaching from home, and doing everything from home after which we have screen time - at home. Are you seeing a theme here?

You need a vacation. Sadly I think most people do. You might not be able to go to the beach, but good news - you can still get some quality relaxation from Acupuncture. Taking you to your sleepy place is one of Acupuncture's superpowers, and rest is half of the famous duo of rest and digest. Currently, Acupuncturists are deemed essential and can continue to practice, as we are a regulated health profession in Ontario,. That's even though it seems like nothing good is still open.

If you're considering trying Acupuncture, take advantage of the free consultation option or take the plunge and make an appointment. We can bill your insurance directly if you have that, so there's one less thing to worry about. Book now and get some self care which you definitely deserve!

Maybe if we could figure out the Acupuncture meridians on tulips we could keep them alive longer as well. But seriously, Acupuncture is legendary at both restoring the body's natural balance and putting you into a relaxed 'rest and digest' state. If you've been living from stressful moment to stressful moment all day long, you probably forgot what that's like. Here are some helpful ways to increase the 'rest and digest' portion of your day to 40%.
1 - eating hygiene. Cook all your meals at home and make a ritual out of meal time whenever possible. Cooking for yourself and family is excellent self care time. Smell the food as it's cooking and give the body a chance to prepare for all of its deliciousness. Keep all screens off and out of reach at mealtime (extra credit for leaving them on silent).
2 - sleep hygiene. Shut everything down two hours before bed including phones and screens, bright lights, and maybe even the wifi? Read a book that's paper. Talk with your family or call friends you miss and have been thinking about. Sleep in complete blackout darkness with no phones in the bedroom. Tell your friends you go 'off line at 9'. Then do it!
3 - take breaks even when you don't think you need them. A walk at lunchtime or gentle stretching of those tired sitting muscles remind your body that you know it has needs and you are listening to what it is messaging to you.
4 - ask for help! When you're feeling bad, sick, lonely, tired, stressed, sleepless, or just not yourself, get some help! Acupuncture is amazing but of course do what feels right for you at that moment. Meditation, yoga, pranayama, deep breathing, prayer, and gentle movement like qigong and taichi are all helpful but only you know what works for you. Create your coping strategy and don't hesitate to use it.

Client after client is coming to clinic due to unrelenting anxiety, insomnia, and feeling stressed. This group of symptoms is often a product of the environment we find ourselves trying to navigate. If my clients are new to acupuncture, they are often pleasantly surprised to start feeling better after they have acupuncture.

Systemic inflammation is responsible for many symptoms in autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, M/S, lupus, and IBS. Inflammation is actually the body's response to what it perceives as non-native cells. This study from the Harvard Medical School shows effective relief from bacterial induced inflammation after subjects received acupuncture treatments.

“Our findings represent an important step in ongoing efforts not only to understand the neuroanatomy of acupuncture but to identify ways to incorporate it into the treatment arsenal of inflammatory diseases, including sepsis”

Open wide and say lasagne! While mask wearing regulations make it kinda difficult to observe your tongue's story, it's still a cornerstone of TCM diagnosis. Whether its at the beginning or end of the conversation, it helps us gain insight into the condition of your Zangfu or major organ systems. It can tell is if you've been overindulging in sugar or not getting a good night's sleep. So don't be shy - show us your tongues!
