Learn a set of acupressure points to relieve stress and anxiety. The points this video are the same ones we teach our acupuncture patients to use between acupuncture treatments at our Edina MN clinic.

By alleviating the symptoms, patients suffer less but the condition does not necessarily resolve. Symptoms of coughing, sneezing and runny nose are the body’s natural way of expelling pathogens.

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Winter season is associated with the Water element. The corresponding organs are kidneys, bladder and adrenal glands. This is a time when these organs are their most vulnerable. So the theme of this season is rest and revitalization. Chinese medicine teaches that the kidneys are deep storage batteries of energy. But their energy is finite. This precise energy can be depleted by inadequate sleep, stress, and poor diet. So Winter is bes ..read more

4 out of 10 people in the US are on anti-depressants. Most studies show they work only 1 or 2% better than placebo. That’s not very good. Being not depressed does not mean you don’t have some depressing days. Being not depressed means you have something bad happen in your life, you have an appropriate reaction and you move on. Being depressed is when something happens and days and days and weeks and weeks and you ruminate and it’s horrible. That’s depression. 7 out of 10 Americans report high levels of stress.

The ancient Chinese understood that vital air (oxygen) absorbed into the blood supply via the lungs was necessary to activate nutrients and defensive substances (immune system). This makes perfect sense when reading the following: “Recent evidence shows that nitric oxide (NO) level is elevated in the acupoints/meridians and is associated with an enhanced expression of NO synthase endowed with transient receptor potential vanilloid type-1. There is growing evid ..read more
