While it can be difficult to address the constellation of clinical manifestations as well as multiple organ systems involved in post-Covid sequelae, as holistic health practitioners, acupuncture and natural medicine can be a missing link for managing chronic manifestations of Covid. Many of the symptoms of long-Covid, such as fatigue, brain fog, irregular menstruation, body aches, headaches, etc. are already things we often treat successfully with acupuncture and herbs in the clinic!
Chinese people around the world will soon be celebrating both the Spring Festival and the New Year on the same day. This year we welcome the Year of the Dragon, a time of transformation, integration, and creativity. It’s a great time to get things done but also a time to be sure not to let your ambitions get away from you.
Most of us know the Winter Solstice as the darkest day of the year, the moment when the northern hemisphere of the earth is tilted farthest away from the sun—it happens around 7:30 pm this Thursday, December 21. The meaning, however, carries a much deeper significance. It’s the time when the substantial, contracting qualities of Yin—along with the cold and darkness—hand off the baton to the rising, expanding qualities of Yang, which include warmth and lightness.

The season of fall is associated with the Lungs and the Metal element in Chinese Medicine. It’s a time to start turning within, to clarify what you most value, and to get back into healthy nourishing self-care routines. Fall is a great time to get back into your acupuncture routine, especially if you suffer from colds, pneumonia, asthma, depression, fatigue, arthritis, or any condition that worsens in the winter months.
One of our Acupuncturists, Rachel Hinnen, was recently featured in Bon Appetit Magazine for her ethical and sustainable meat production business Vorfreude Dairy Beef. In additional to Acupuncture and healing, Rachel has had a life long passion to have a cattle ranch which has lead her to raise, care for and process retired dairy cows for high-quality grass-fed beef. In this blog, Rachel explores the intersection of her two passions, acupuncture and cows.
