Thinking of Doing a Cleanse?

We all may need a little spring cleaning; inside and out!

Why Detox
One of the main ways that the body rids itself of toxins is through the liver. In fact, the liver is one of the hardest working organs in the body. From environmental pollutants, additives, medications, chemicals in cosmetics to an abundance in alcohol, drugs and coffee our liver has to process it all.  Add in stress and emotional factors and sometimes this organ extraordinaire simply cannot keep up. You may need to take a step back and minimize these stressors on your body.

When to Detox
Based on the ancient Traditional Chinese Medical (TCM) theory of The Five Elements of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water, a certain element corresponds with a particular season, organ or gland, and even emotion.

In this Chinese system Spring is linked to the element of wood, connected to the liver and gall bladder organs. Planning your cleanse around the cycle of nature such as Spring encourages change and regrowth.
When in harmony our Liver energy or “qi” can encourage us to try new things, set a new course and commit to action.
When in disharmony you may experience excess stress, irritability, change in menstrual cycle or digestive disrupt.

Finding Balance
I like to encourage a healthy balance in my client’s lifestyle. I guide my clients with an easy to follow Spring Into Cleanse protocol. In addition to a selection of temporary dietary eliminations, I prescribe a blend of Western and Eastern herbs (tincture and pill form) while providing treatment sessions focused on an acupuncture protocol while introducing Chinese cupping for cleansing and recharging the system naturally through lymph drainage.

Even when following guidelines, treatments are always modified to suit the patient’s health needs and their diagnosis.
