Spring

For so many, spring brings the promise of new beginnings, growth and expansion. We typically increase our physical activity and enjoy more time outside. The trees are budding, flowers are blooming, bees are buzzing and seasonal allergy sufferers are sneezing.

 Whether or not you are one of these individuals, we are all affected by the shifting in weather patterns. Winter has had us inside, consolidating yin and storing energy for this time when we can once again emerge from dormancy and reach for the sun. As we expose our skin to changing weather patterns, inhale the pollen grains that are on the wind and ready ourselves for increased physical activity, it is important to tune our bodies to the elements. 

 Acupuncture is a great way to do exactly that. By listening to the inner patterns of the physical body, Chinese medicine can offer subtle shifts that eliminate blockages, open airways and transform phlegm. All of these things are specific to your individual make-up and can assist in making this your best spring yet!
