Fall crisp

With the sudden change of weather there is a chill in the air to match. As the nights begin earlier our bodies natural rhythm is to be inside and rest more. It's a great time for rejuvenating acupuncture. This does not mean that acupuncture will bring instant energy and immunity. It means it will support your body's natural rhythms of the season to help you sleep when your body wants to sleep to have energy for the shorter days.

Energetically the qi is not as surface as it was even a week ago. I tend to needle deeper and use heat lamps and warming techniques to treat patients. 

Time to eat more cooked food and use delicious warming spices to aid in digestion and seasonal health.
-ginger
-garlic/onion
-cinnamon
-nutmeg
-pepper

Are great additions this time.
