Spleen Qi is easily disrupted and a common imbalance found in Modern American Culture, aka The Standard American Diet. Due to our fast-paced lifestyles, poor dietary choices, and prolonged stress, our spleens can become compromised and lose their resilience. Fast foods, sugars, and processed foods are often culprit to this imbalance.
This can lead to a variety of symptoms like fatigue, bloating, weak immunity, and even mental fog. Simple changes often aid people in getting their splenic energy back on track. Alitheia Healing Acupuncture is here to support you on your journey to restore and maintain spleen health. Combining the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with the complementary practices of acupuncture, nutrition, and herbal medicine, we create personalized treatment plans tailored to your unique needs.
Alethea is an experienced practitioner who will work closely with you to identify imbalances, addressing the root cause of spleen disharmony. Through gentle acupuncture techniques, and nutritional suggestions, and herbal intervention we help stimulate and harmonize the flow of Spleen Qi, encouraging the restoration of its vital functions. Thus optimizing your daily potential.
By incorporating certain foods into your daily routine, you can assist the functionality of the spleen greatly. And yes, cutting out foods such as processed foods, sodas, and sugars would also benefit. But it is so much easier to start with bringing new (and ‘good’) foods into your world than to simply cut out foods that are ‘bad’.
This list of foods assists the body's overall metabolic process; to aid in energy, reduce stress, increase muscular movement, increase blood production, and reduce any bruising. Enhancing the spleen-pancreas function, not only means regulating blood sugars but also eating foods which provide the enzymes and fibers for optimal nutrient break down and absorption.
