Fall is in the air. Crisp mornings and fresh apples.It’s harvest time and there are lots of local vegetables to be had. Sometimes it is hard to find the time to prepare it!
Here’s a tip or two: Prep your vegetables when you get home from the farm or market so they will be ready for a quick stir-fry or salad.Make a habit of preparing the next day’s lunch while making dinner.
Cold and Flu Season – From the Chinese perspective, colds and influenzas are caused by external pathogens invading the exterior of the body. To treat, we use herbs that release the superficial layer of the body which gets the pathogen out before it goes deeper. It is important that the herbs are taken several times a day at the initial onset of symptoms until it the pathogen has been expelled. I recommend keeping one of these formulas in your medicine cabinet. I always keep a stock of the most effective formulas at my office – let me know if you need one.
Warmly,

I will be offering Saturday balancing sessions for the last time this fall.
Special Saturday Autumn Balancing Treatments
acupuncture and zero balancing
October 18 and November 1
(last time!!!)
These treatments are aimed at balancing and flowing your energy in order to improve your overall health. I am offering acupuncture tune-ups and 30-minute zero balancing sessions for $45. Both leave you feeling relaxed and tuned-up!
Acupuncture focuses on unblocking the Qi in your meridians. I will be emphasizing a gentle yet powerful Japanese non-insertion style of acupuncture this time.
Zero balancing is a simple yet profoundly powerful hands-on body/mind system that promotes greater health by aligning your energy body with your physical structure (i.e. bones and ligaments).
This is a great opportunity to introduce new people to acupuncture and zero balancing, so feel free to tell your friends and family. Call or email for an appointment.
