19.01.2022 What does cupping actually do other than make you look like an octopus and leave huge bruises on your back for a week? - How does it work? Traditional Chinese Medicine cupping is applied onto the skin with glass or bamboo cups: a fire is put into the cup which draws out the oxygen, so it acts as a vacuum when applied to the skin. -... The benefits: fascial release promotes lymphatic drainage and clears excess fluids supports the immune system by clearing pathogens & cold promotes healthy blood flow to the local tissues by clearing unwanted stagnant substances such as lactic acid calms the shen by stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system activates healthy blood circulation to the abdominal cavity (organs) and lowers blood pressure - #traditionalcupping #chinesemedicine #firecupping #chinesemedicine See more

04.01.2022 An ‘anovulatory cycle’ refers to a menstrual cycle with the absence of ovulation. - This means that there is no juicy egg (follicle) released from the ovaries, but you still get a period. - Most women will experience anovulatory cycles throughout their lifetime: depending on factors like prolonged stress, environmental factors, during peri-menopause and in early adolescence (when you first get your period).... - Another example of an anovulatory cycle is on the contraceptive pill. - However, anovulatory cycles are common in PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). - Causes of an AC is a deficiency in E2 (Estradiol) and an absence of sufficient progesterone. In Chinese Medicine we relate this to a deficiency in Kidney yin, yang and Spleen Xue. - When digestion is not working well, there is low intake of nutrients occurring, there are changes in circadian rhythm, emotional stressors, excessive exercise & low OR excessive body fat, can suppress optimal ovulation. - How to tell if you had an anovulatory cycle? * If you are bleeding on the contraception pill * Nil or lacking fertile cervical mucus * Irregular or delayed period timing * Light bleeding * No temp spike in your BBT - #hormones #anovulation #periodfacts #period #womenshealth #chinesemedicine See more
