STAGNATION: A SOURCE OF PATHOLOGIES

According to Chinese medicine, stagnations of Qi and blood are a major cause of pain. Blood circulates because Qi (energy) mobilizes it. So a stagnation of Qi can generate a stasis of blood and vice versa.

If these stagnations last, they generate the production of a toxic substance (Re Du), which must be eliminated by the immune system. If the immune system is weak, diseases such as eczema or psoriasis can occur. Stagnation is also one of the main causes of cancer.

There are many factors that cause stagnation: lack of movement, overwork, stress, lack of sleep, poor diet, trauma… Acupuncture, pharmacopoeia, as well as manual techniques can free this stagnation.

PREVENT KIDNEY STONE FORMATION THROUGH DIET

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the kidneys are the reservoirs of vital energy. They are mainly related to certain organs such as the bladder, the urinary tract, the genital system and the lower back.

Kidney colic, a common ailment that affects the kidneys, is caused by a bad diet (too much sugar, too much salt…).

This condition is known in TCM as Shi Lin (urine and sand) and is due to the accumulation of Heat and Moisture over a long period of time, leading to the obstruction of the bladder by the formation of grains of sand or Lithiasis.

Acupuncture helps to relieve the pain generated by this condition and pharmacopoeia helps to dissolve kidney stones. But nothing can replace a balanced diet.

HEALING THROUGH NATURE AND ITS LAWS

HEALING THROUGH NATURE AND ITS LAWS

HEALING THROUGH NATURE AND ITS LAWS

Health is our natural state; it is harmony with nature and its laws. Serious or chronic illness is therefore a sign of disharmony in our lives.

To get out of illness requires first identifying the sources of these imbalances (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual). We will then make the necessary adjustments in our lives to restore this harmony.

Entering the virtuous circle of healing therefore consists in getting closer step by step to Nature and its rhythms. Then the body will regain its capacity for self-healing. This means taking time for: a healthy diet, exercise, rest, spiritual practice, being in touch with Nature.
