Because social distancing and self-isolation due to COVID-19 has been a couple of weeks already and is likely to last much longer, I know that many of you are wondering what you can do to manage your ongoing or acute health issues on your own at home.
In this video, I demonstrate and discuss a few Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) tools and techniques you can use at home.
Cupping can be used for:
- the stimulation of acupuncture points
- increasing blood circulation and relaxing tight muscles
- relieving pain and discomfort
Ear seeds/ear crystal seeds can be used for:
- stimulation of the ear acupuncture points
- calming the nervous system (this is one of the main reasons I recommend/use this modality)
- managing addictions (drug, smoking, food, etc.)
- treatment of a wide variety of health conditions, as your whole body is represented in this model
Press needles can be used for:
- gentle stimulation of acupuncture points
- treatment of a wide variety of health conditions
- lasting and place it and leave it (for up to a week) treatment
Moxa heat packs can be used for:
- pain and tension that is relieved by heat
- muscle cramps and spasms
- poor circulation
If you need any of these tools and live in Canada, ask me for help and I can either ship out (from my limited inventory) or get them drop-shipped directly to you from my distributor(s).
If you have specific health questions and want guidance, I’m happy to answer what I can easily answer via email or you can book in a consultation for a phone or video chat at activetcm.janeapp.com . Note that I’ve reduced my consultation fees by HALF to make this as accessible as possible. There is also an option for a consultation with personalized kit to be mailed to you.
