    Let’s talk about a condition we see all the time in clinic — Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

    • Effective acupuncture methods using Balance Method pairings, local points, and auricular support
    • How to combine cupping, moxa, herbs, and supplements for lasting relief

  • #96 - Postpartum Healing with Chinese Medicine with Emily Montague
    Nov 5 2025

    💌 Sign up for my FREE weekly newsletter where I share exclusive content I don't share anywhere else!

    What if everything we’ve been told about postpartum recovery in Western culture is fundamentally flawed?

    After facing her own health struggles postpartum after her first pregnancy, Emily Montague leaned into her background of living in Hong Kong and her fluency in both Mandarin and Cantonese.

    She fully immersed herself in the transformative wisdom of “The Sitting Month”—a traditional Chinese approach to postpartum care that prioritizes rest, nourishment, and long-term healing. Now, after having 5 children herself(!) Emily is helping mothers everywhere reclaim this powerful practice.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • The ancient practice of “The Sitting Month” and why dedicated rest transforms postpartum recovery
    • Key dietary principles and warming foods that rebuild blood and support healing
    • The contrast between Western “bounce back” culture and Eastern approaches to maternal care
    • How acupuncture and community support play vital roles in long-term wellbeing

  • #95 - Your Go-To Protocol For Frozen Shoulder During Menopause
    Oct 29 2025

    💌 Sign up for my FREE weekly newsletter where I share exclusive content I don't share anywhere else!

    In this episode, we’re connecting the dots between Frozen Shoulder and Menopause.

    Both are incredibly common—especially in women around their 40s and 50s—and TCM offers powerful tools to support recovery and balance.

    I’ll walk you through the TCM perspective on frozen shoulder, exploring patterns like Qi and Blood stagnation, Kidney and Liver Blood deficiencies, and how these connect to hormonal shifts and the decline of estrogen from a Western medical lens.

    Here’s what you’ll learn:

    • The TCM patterns behind frozen shoulder and how they link to menopause
    • Key acupuncture points and techniques that target both local and systemic causes
    • How to combine treatments for faster, more lasting results
    • Lifestyle tips to support healing between sessions
