My interest in traditional Chinese medicine lead me to my final stop on my wellness themed birthday, Mindful Spirit Acupuncture.
General wellness, insomnia, digestion, back and joint pain management, headaches, immune support, nervous system regulation, respiratory issues, and stress/anxiety are just a few things acupuncture addresses.
Becky, the owner and practitioner is incredible. I was blown away by her scoop of education and information about the human body.
She creates a space where you feel safe, seen, and cared for. The appointment is tailored to your wants, needs, and comfort level.
My intention for this treatment was releasing heat from the body, a traditional chinese medicine concept. The body can have excessive or deficient amounts of yin or yang heatiness.
I am so lucky to live my life pain free and rarely feel any issues or limitations. My joints feel amazing. My knees are awesome, my hips feel great, and I never have back pain. If I feel something is off, I move my body for two days and I’m back to normal. As hard as I am on my body, I truly feel like I’m 18.
So my experience was far more emotionally focused.
After 75 needles, a mind explosion of information about my body, and much appreciated relaxation time, my treatment was done.
Based on how my body felt with each needle placement, Becky began to draw a better road map for our next appointment. Some areas brought up no discomfort, in fact I couldn’t even feel them going in. While other areas were a little more interesting. Muscles felt tight, muscles felt exhausted, and the needles going in were noticeable. Some places made me cry, not from the needle pain, but from my emotional pain. This was all information for us.
She’s efficient in her healing so our next treatment will be targeted towards the areas of discomfort.
I can’t wait to see her again in January. She’s a very special unicorn human. You know the types, the ones you can feel are angels here on earth.
