Spring News and Updates
Dear Community,
I hope your spring is productive and full of growth! The primary themes of spring in Chinese Medicine are: cleansing, exercise and personal growth.
Not all cleanses are beneficial for all people so it’s best not to go it alone. Reach out for support and schedule a consultation or reach out to another trusted practitioner. Make sure exercise is regular throughout your spring season and that you are actively working on your personal growth. My book recommendation for spring: “Your Best Year Ever” by Michael Hyatt. It’s a good book to help you create a practical plan for achieving your most important goals.
In my business, Johanna’s Acupuncture, I also have a few new offerings, including a new online supplement dispensary with Wellevate where I give a 10% discount on all products. Use it for yourself and feel free to invite friends to use my dispensary with Wellevate!
If you know someone suffering from seasonal allergies, check out my research update and consider suggesting that Chinese medicine can help.
I also have a new series of greeting cards that I painted on rice paper with traditional Chinese inks that are now available to purchase. Lastly my new website is up that includes the link to my online schedule.

Research Update
Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs are an effective way to treat seasonal allergies.
Clinical studies from 2002, 2003, 2004, 2008 and 2012 about allergic rhinitis (allergies with a runny nose), found that acupuncture (and in some studies Chinese herbs) significantly reduced allergy symptoms both in adults and in Children. These studies confirm my experience with patients. Below are links you can click on to learn more:
