Pregnancy can have a multitude of effects on a woman’s body. Obviously, there are the physical changes, but there can also be changes you might not directly see, like depression or anxiety. The good news is, these things can be naturally and successfully treated through Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Using modalities like acupuncture and nutrition, tailored to her specific, individual needs, we can gently rebalance her system. When a pregnant mom receives acupuncture, her body’s parasympathetic nervous system allows her body to recover cortisol levels, as well as rejuvenating seratonin and dopamine levels. #tcm #traditionalchinesemedicine #acupuncture #herbalmedicine #naturalwellness #holistichealth #acupunctureforpregnancy #depression #anxiety #acupunctureduringpregnancy #growingfamilies #ancientmedicine #modernhealth #faithbasedpractice #trinityoakwellness

Per the Traditional Chinese calendar, we’ve just entered the official start of winter, called Lì Döng. It is the 19th of 24 solar terms of the year. It signifies the end of the harvest season and the beginning of the cold, dormant period of nature. It brings colder temperatures, shorter days, and plant and animals enter a period of rest to prepare for colder months. It marks an important seasonal shift, one in which people adjust their lifestyles to focus on warmth, nutrition, and balance. The Yin now dominates as Yang waits to be reborn again. During this term, continue to keep the body warm, feed the body with warm foods, nourish the lungs, and adapt practices to prevent dryness in the form is dry throat, cough, thirst, chapped lips and dry skin. #tcm #traditionalchinesemedicine #chinesecalendar #seasons #winter #lidong #beginningofwinter #seasonofyin #warmth #hibernation #integrativemedicine #ancientmedicine #acupuncture #modernhealth #trinityoakwellnessandacupuncture

This beautiful, healthy baby is the 4th daughter born to her family! Her mom knew she wanted another baby, but was having a few issues conceiving. She proactively worked on her fertility by getting her menstrual health and hormones balanced prior to getting pregnant. She had been having irregular periods before she came in for acupuncture treatments. There are numerous methods and modalities that may be used to help optimize fertility. For this mom, in addition to acupuncture treatments, I recommended two TCM herbal formulas she took at different times of her cycle, tart cherry juice, and vitamin D. Each of these elements promote and support optimal fertility. For instance, proper Vitamin D levels can help with the implantation of an embryo. Schedule your appointment for a consultation with Emily. We can discuss your health needs and determine an individualized plan for you! #acupuncture #herbalmedicine #acupunctureforfertility #acupunctureduringpregnancy #ancientmedicine #modernhealth #integrativemedicine #holistichealth #hormonehealth #optimizingfertility #womenswellness #vitamind #growingfamilies #trinityoakwellnessandacupuncture

EMF radiation is a natural phenomenon and are present all around us. But the proliferation of electronic devices are increasingly raising concerns about the potential the health risk of prolonged exposure. The higher frequency EMFs include x-rays and gamma rays, which are ionizing radiation and can directly damage DNA and cells. Common, everyday devices that emit lower frequency EMFs include power lines, electrical wiring, cell phones, tablets, laptops, smart watches, Bluetooth devices (like AirPods), wi-fi routers, tanning beds, laser devices, microwaves, electric blankets, various household appliances, even hairdryers! With so many devices that can cause EMF waves to have negative effects on our bodies, we need to not only be aware of them, we need to know and practice ways to limit our exposure. EMF waves disrupt our bodies harmonious flow of qi (vital energy) and blood. Some people report rapid heart beat, irregular heart beat and even sleep disturbances, particularly when wearing these devices on our bodies. I recommend wearing EMF protectors such as @emf.harmony . Turning devices off when not in use, or turning them on airplane mode, especially while sleeping. You might also consider turning off your wi-fi router and/or keeping devices in separate rooms during the night. #womenshealth #modernworld #ancientmedicine #modernhealth #emfs #emfawareness #holistichealth #integrativemedicine #tcm #naturalhealth #harmony #trinityoakwellnessandacupuncture

Acupuncture can be a huge factor in the success of either IVF or FET. This patient has dealt with 4 years of unexplained infertility. She came to see me after 3 failed IVF cycles and while going through a fourth IVF cycle. In her search for the right protocol for successful conception, she had been referred to numerous doctors, including one as far away as Tennessee, who specializes in further testing. She became a patient of mine at TOA and conceived while she was going through my program of receiving acupuncture weekly prior to egg retrieval and before embryo transfer. Why is acupuncture important if you are going through FET or IVF? Acupuncture improves uterine receptivity, improves blood flow, and increases live birth rate! As you can see, it has been successful for this patient—she is experiencing a happy and healthy pregnancy! #acupunctureworks #acupunctureforfertility #fet #ivf #ttc #fertilitywarriors #healthymom #healthypregnancy #healthybaby #tcm #ancientmedicine #modernhealth #holistichealth #integrativemedicine #overcominginfertility #fertilityspecialist #faithbasedpractice #growingfamilies #trinityoakwellness #trinityoakacupuncture

This baby’s mom was having issues conceiving her 2nd child and was seeing a reproductive endocrinologist who recommended IUI. In the meantime, she did acupuncture with me and she was able to conceive on her own! We nourished her kidney yin and liver blood by using herbal medicine and diet therapy. She is now in her 2nd trimester and doing great!

Sleep is one of the most important components to not only maintaining overall health, but specifically hormone health. Imbalances in our hormones requires lifestyle changes, including potentially unhealthy sleeping habits. Are you sleeping enough? I encourage all my patients to be in bed and asleep before midnight. It is ideal to be asleep by 10PM-11PM so that your kidney qi, much like the adrenal glands, thyroid gland, and hormones can begin to rejuvenate. This helps regulate cortisol levels, which helps your body manage stress, regulate blood sugar and pressure, and reduce inflammation. #healthyhabit #healthyhabitsforhormones #hormonehealth #holistichealth #integrativemedicine #womenswellness #sleep #sleephealth #itsallconnected #gotosleep #sleepinheavenlypeace #ancientmedicine #modernhealth #healthycortisol #trinityoakwellnessandacupuncture

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a complete medical system that has been used to diagnose, treat, and prevent illnesses for more than 2,000 years. TCM sees health holistically, meaning the mind (emotions), body, and spirit are completely and intricately connected. All three dependent on each other, communicating via the nervous system. Our bodies respond to cycles of the seasons, respond to circadian rhythms, thoughts, the environment around you, and emotions. #tcm #traditionalchinesemedicine #balance #energy #yinyang #qi #ancientmedicine #modernhealth #holistichealth #acupuncture #herbalmedicine #moxibustion #bodymindsoul #itsallconnected #seasons #circadianrhythm #womenshealth #womensreproductivelife #menopause #faithbasedpractice #trinityoakacupuncture
It is no secret that women, especially those of moving into perimenopause and menopausal stages, are an underserved demographic in the U.S. healthcare system. As an integrative medicine practitioner, focused on women’s health and wellness, I would like to help fill in the information gap. I hear from so many patients who are so surprised and confused about things happening with their bodies—things we were never taught, never warned about—trust me, it can be overwhelming! Here at TOA, our focus is navigating each cycle of a woman’s reproductive life through a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) lens, integrated with functional, and some Western, methods. Follow along with us here as we share insights, facts, tips, etc. And as always, comment with any questions—let’s learn together as a community! #womenswellness #womenshealth #reproductivelifecycle #integrativemedicine #functionalmedicine #holistichealth #tcm #ancientmedicine #modernhealth #acupuncture #fertilityjourney #menopause #perimenopause #trinityoakwellnessandacupuncture

I have heavy periods… I have painful periods… I have irregular periods… I have PMS… Is birth control my only option? The answer is a resounding no. The pill is not your only answer. Regulating your cycle with acupuncture may also be another very helpful method at addressing your frustrations with your menstrual cycle. As a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine for over 20 years, I have helped many women get their cycles back on track. I’ve restarted and regulated cycles that were non existent, decreased excruciating cramps, and decreased not only the heavy flow that can interfere with daily activities, but reduced and eliminated PMS. Have you ever considered acupuncture? It may be a great time to start! #acupuncture #acupunctureworks #acupunctureforwomenshealth #womenswellness #menstrualhealth #regularcycles #tcm #traditionslchinesemedicine #ancientmedicine #modernhealth #integrativemedicine #functionalmedicine #holistichealth #hormonebalance #qi #faithbasedbusiness #trinityoakwellnessandacupuncture #trinityoakacupuncture

If you’ve ever been told that you should take a magnesium supplement, you probably know that it can be a little confusing. There are quite a few different forms of magnesium. They vary in their bioavailability and absorption rates in the body, as well as having a wide variety of targeted actions. For instance, magnesium citrate is known for its high absorption rate and is favored by many for promoting gut health and bowel regularity because of its ability to draw water into the intestines. Another form, magnesium glycinate, is known for its calming properties and gentle absorption, making it a popular choice for sleep, relaxation, and muscle function. Understanding each type and how or what they affect is knowledge worth having. This handy breakdown is perfect to save or share for anyone who might need help in choosing the most beneficial magnesium supplement.

Baby Kennedy has arrived! We are so happy for you and your beautiful family. Kennedy’s mom went through IVF and had 15 eggs, 3 mature and and 1 genetically normal which was frozen as mom had to pause her IVF to have scar tissue in the uterus removed by her doctor. After her surgery, we prepped for FET by using weekly acupuncture sessions. These acupuncture sessions improved her uterine receptivity for pregnancy, as well as increased the blood flow to the uterus to encourage the growth of a healthy lining for embryo implantation. Success was achieved resulting in her positive pregnancy results. To the ladies out there who may have only one chance of pregnancy due to a limited number of embryos, I’d like to offer you my heartfelt advice. Please consider starting acupuncture as soon as you can! You have a better chance of conceiving with utilizing acupuncture during your IVF or FET process. Do your research! And feel free to ask me any questions regarding acupuncture treatments, as well as how this process works. Mom and Baby Kennedy are doing great! She is one lucky little girl, she’s getting tons of love from her two proud big brothers! #welcomebaby #toawelcomebabyseries #growingfamilies #infertility #infertilityjourney #ive #iui #fet #acupunctureforfertility #acupunctureduringpregnancy #faithbasedpractice #holistichealth #integrativemedicine #ancientmedicine #modernhealth #fertilityexpert #tcm #trinityoakwellnessandacupuncture
