As we journey through life, our skin—like a well-worn tapestry—begins to show the passage of time. Fine lines, dryness, dullness, and loss of elasticity are natural, but in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), these are not just signs of aging—they’re messages.  According to TCM, aging skin is the result of internal imbalances, often involving excess internal heat, dryness, and a decline in vital substances such as Qi , Blood , and Yin . Rather than simply covering these signs, Oriental medicine seeks to nourish the skin from the root—balancing the internal environment while soothing and restoring the skin externally.  One time-honored method? Herbal facial masks are made from TCM powders blended with simple, nourishing ingredients like yogurt, honey, or milk. Let’s explore this age-old beauty ritual. 🌸 Understanding Aging Skin in TCM In TCM, healthy skin depends on the smooth flow of Qi and Blood, the nourishment from Yin , and the cooling, moisturizing properties of...

  Where East meets Skin Science! In the heart of Traditional Oriental Medicine (TOM), beauty is a reflection of internal balance—smooth Qi flow, harmonized organs, and healthy blood circulation. In this philosophy, external skin issues are not merely cosmetic—they signal deeper imbalances. At Naum Acupuncture, we believe in treating the root while nourishing the surface, combining ancient wisdom with modern techniques to reveal your natural beauty. One such treatment we offer is Nano Microneedling , a gentle, non-invasive method that refreshes and renews your skin from the inside out. Using this method, we harmonize external rejuvenation with inner balance, bringing the skin into a state of healing and glow—without relying on unnatural or overly invasive approaches like Botox or fillers. What is nano micro-needling?  Nano microneedling is an advanced facial treatment that uses ultra-fine, microscopic, silicone-tipped needles that gently penetrate the very top layer of the sk...

  In the pursuit of beauty and wellness, many turn to invasive procedures like Botox and fillers. However, traditional cosmetic acupuncture offers a natural alternative that enhances both beauty and health while preserving one’s unique facial features. At Naum Acupuncture, we embrace holistic techniques that not only rejuvenate the skin but also promote overall well-being. The TCM Approach: Beauty from the Inside Out In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), all Yang meridians run through the face, meaning that facial acupuncture is more than just a beauty treatment—it’s a way to balance the body's energy and enhance overall health.  By stimulating key points, facial acupuncture increases circulation, promotes collagen production, and revitalizes skin elasticity.  Unlike Botox or fillers, which artificially alter facial features, acupuncture works with the body’s natural processes to maintain a youthful and radiant appearance while preserving your unique beauty. The Be...

Mary sat across from me in my clinic with her eyes glowing with the excitement of possibility. "We decided to try for a baby!" she exclaimed, "So... what should I do now?" I smiled, appreciating her enthusiasm. "Have you been preparing your body for pregnancy?" She blinked, puzzled. "I mean... we just decided and would make it. Isn’t that enough?" Her question, though innocent, reflects a broader societal oversight: yet when it comes to creating a new life, many simply assume that conception is a matter of chance, not preparation.  But in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and increasingly in modern research, we know that the months leading up to conception shape not only fertility but the long-term health of the child. The Missing Puzzle Piece in Parenthood Dr. Aviva Romm, a Yale-trained physician and midwife, states in her book The Natural Pregnancy Book that “a woman’s health three to six months before conception can profoundly impact the he...
