In case you missed it! After years of advocation, In case you missed it! After years of advocation, surveys and discussion PCOS has been renamed PMOS — from Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome to Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome.

While this name change won’t change how we treat irregular cycle, metabolic dysfunction or hormonal imbalance from a Chinese Medicine perspective, hopefully it is a step in the right direction towards  a more accurate and compassionate understanding of menstrual health as a whole.

Loving this magical weather or just feeling heavy, Loving this magical weather or just feeling heavy, off and over it? Welcome to Late summer, Chinese medicines fifth season. 

These golden afternoons, fresh mornings and unusually warm evenings are thought of as a season all of their own in Chinese Medicine. 
Late summer is the transition time between summer and autumn. It is ruled by the Earth element and resonates with our Spleen Qi/digestive function. 

This is a time that is all about returning to our center, grounding and digesting the activities of summer (food, thoughts, life).

If you are struggling right now it’s likely that your Spleen Qi is struggling to process what it’s been given. 

You might notice:
Bloating or loose stools
Low appetite or food cravings
Brain fog / heavy head
Low energy, especially in the afternoon
Overthinking or worry creeping in

Now is the perfect window to energetically strengthen your digestive function with acupuncture and herbal medicine, restoring clarity, energy and peace of mind.

Buddha’s Triangle is our favourite point selection on the wrist  used to calm the nervous system, ease anxiety, and support deep, restorative sleep.

❤️ HT7 / Spirit Gate - Strengthens the Heart and grounds the spirit to ease anxiety and helps sleep. 

❤️ PC6 / Inner pass - Regulates the Heart and softens through the chest to ease overwhelm and emotional tension. 

❤️ LU9 / Great Abyss - Supports breath and releases grief helping you let go and drop in. 

Together, they create a “triangle” that anchors the mind back into the body, shifting you out of fight-or-flight and into rest-and-digest.

Apply gentle pressure to each point for 30–60 seconds, slow your breath, and feel the shift.
