It’s not in your head when you don’t feel well!
Ever feel like when you are under chronic stress, digesting food is harder than it used to be? Do you have indigestion, gas, bloating, nausea, diarrhea or constipation? That isn’t in your head! There is actual science behind it, taught in physiology classes in acupuncture and nursing school. Here we explain exactly what is happening when you are under chronic stress.
Solving Knee Pain
Not all knee pain comes from the knee! Here’s an example of a treatment protocol I use when pain in the knee originates from trigger points in 2 of the hamstring muscles; semi-membranosus and semi-tendinosus. These two muscles attach to the inside of the knee and when the muscle is super tight, it will pull on the knee creating “knee pain”. Something a little acupuncture and cupping can fix and easily!
