I am taking Wu Zi Yan Zong WAN currently and seems to be working. Can I take Bu Zhong YI Qi Wan together ?  Is there any precautions to be taken?

Herbs like turmeric, ginger, and rosemary are known for their natural anti-inflammatory properties, which can provide relief for joint pain. These herbs have been shown to reduce inflammation and ease discomfort, making them valuable additions to a holistic approach to joint health. I read one arti…

Your son will get the best responses from treatment by working directly with an acupuncturist who also practices Chinese Medicine.  The herbs you chose for him seem to be mostly unrelated, in my mind at least, to the issues you are describing.  Si Jun Zi Tang is more for deep qi deficiency which he…

It's very possible - trying to decipher things from just forum posts is difficult at best.  I hope you get a good practitioner and I'm sure they can help you.  That said, my caution from my clinical experiences remains, the fact that the herbs helped doesn't mean they are correct for your situation…

Thanks for getting back. I think I gave you wrong impression of being overworked from playing games or sexual activities.  I will consult a practisioner soon. However  wu-zi-yang-zong-wan definitely made a huge difference and hope will get to a more tailored recipe.

Chinese Medicine, which encompasses acupuncture, is a broad and complex system of medicine.  At face value this is neither a good or a bad thing, but the complexity of the diagnostic systems and treatment methods can limit broad usage due to limited numbers of well trained practitioners. Acupressur…

by Abby Stewart, LMT, MLD/C Long covid syndrome shares many striking similarities with chronic fatigue syndrome (myalgic encephalitis), including fatigue, unrestful sleep, post-exertional malaise, brain fog, headache, and nonspecific pain. In fact, up to 75% of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) cases …

“No not that bloodletting” is a phrase I use within many articles that discuss this commonly used acupuncture technique.  The technique involves pricking an acupuncture point to draw out a few drops of blood.  A moderately detailed discussion can be found on our bloodletting section.  But suffice i…

There are entire books on the range of uses for cupping, along with when it shouldn't be used, etc.  So providing all of that in a single comment would be difficult.  Most of the general rules can be found in our Japanese acupuncture cupping section.   If there is anything lacking or that needs mor…

I ask those with experience and specialists to explain how cupping works in each of the different types (by explaining the theories) and what the therapist should avoid in some cases and some points. Thank you, we always use you.

It depends.  Generally speaking in areas with disrupted circulation (heavy bruising, open sores, edema, etc.) you want to avoid the area as there is a (albeit small in most cases) risk of infection.  In this particular study they needled only the affected side.  Whether or not this is appropriate w…
