Pain is usually: physical (chronic or acute trauma), psychosomatic, referral, or undefined. Undefined pain needs a long discourse of its own. But separately there are two categories, Du (toxin) and Gu (parasite syndrome) which are under-diagnosed everywhere. Du is like rust on your truck. It crawls underneath the paint and spreads, getting everywhere. It is […]

Without circulation, really nothing works. So yin and yang have to rotate. This might be blood and venous return+lymph, it might be thyroid and parathyroid hormone, it might be the left and right hemispheres of the brain, etc. The point is that if you’re seeing pallor, varicosities, having energy issues, constipation, difficult urination, whatever is […]
Getting old sucks. Physically at least. The jing-essence runs short, healing slows, and everything aches. This is, however, normal. We now know that aside from the marrow and hormones weakening, we have free radical damage, telomere degradation, bad epigenes turned on, and of course “pre-existing conditions.” Of course, this just relates back to sitting too […]
As you could guess people call us a lot about low back pain. Half the time people call it “sciatica.” But real sciatica starts in the buttocks region then erupts in the calf and down the leg. What you probably have is lumbago, or sacroilliacitis, or a spasmodic QL or iliopsoas (a hip pain). Chances […]
There are many types of knee pain. I want to talk about one insidious kind: peroneal nerve offset. What happens is that either we sleep in a position, or work out a certain way, or an energy wave comes through usually at night or during a season change, and GB34 locks up. What makes this […]
Anytime you are: under major stress or overstressed, there is a seasonal transition (including wet-dry), going in and out of hot and cold environments, consuming too much sugar and caffeine, allergy season, or consuming too many meds, alcohol, or drugs… there is the potential for the Liver Qi to severely block the lungs. If that […]
When anxiety happens, most of the time there is some form of heart heat involved. Heat vexing the heart can be due to liver, stomach, or small intestinal fire; it can be from infection or affliction, stress or distress; it can also be trauma, PTSD, bad memories, or other external factors; it can be genetic […]
We are passing the darker period of time and the Light Giving power is on the increase. This means two things. First, have hope, that 2021 will be better and things will continue to improve. Many of you have come for extremely difficult things, and of course pain, and we empathize with you fully. Have […]
A tension headache is related to muscle tension, yes, but primarily it is a nerve + fascia issue. Often it is complicated by disc, facet, and other spinal deformities, but at the heart of it is the nerve conduction rate due either to a pensive/stressed mind, or or a repeated behavior under stress causing bodily […]
