Pawan & Bibek have been with Little Si Acupuncture Pawan & Bibek have been with Little Si Acupuncture since 2019 (full-time since 2020). They have several titles, not limited to: Unofficial dog therapist, professional greeter and office manager. They’ll start by greeting you at the door, nudge you to the chair for the intake, and perhaps sit on your lap. Upon waking up from your “acu-nap,” they will escort you from the treatment table back to the chair. Finally, they’ll make sure you get out the door safely. As the hardest working bois, they expect to be tipped 🦴 🍪 🦴 for their service, so please don’t forget that! #officedogs #officedogsofinstagram

With good digestion, we are able to extract and ab With good digestion, we are able to extract and absorb the nutrients well, and therefore nourish the billions of cells comprising the body, to in turn, promote quality physiology. If we cannot absorb the food we eat, then isn’t it just going to waste? 🧽 Symptoms of a poor digestion may include nausea, vomiting, loose stools or diarrhea, constipation, undigested food, bloating, and inability to lose or gain weight. 🧽 Poor digestion affects the whole body, and can manifest in other systems and express as allergies, skin issues, fatigue, and even pain and poor sleep! 🧽 Acupuncture and East Asian medicine offer valuable tools in bringing the digestive system back to equilibrium! #acupuncture #acupunctureworks #chinesemedicine #chineseherbalmedicine #digestivehealth #ibs #ibd #naturalmedicine
In Chinese medicine, dietary therapy consists more In Chinese medicine, dietary therapy consists more of general recommendations as opposed to a strict diet. We take into account the season, individual constitutional needs, the innate temperature of foods, and the affinity of the food (to a certain organ system). 🥕 Daikon is a plentiful and inexpensive Chinese radish that can be highlighted as the main ingredient in many dishes; and l it is becoming more and more known in the Western world as a superfood. 🥕 When raw, daikon is sweet, cool and pungent. It has an affinity to the Lungs. Daikon expands the chests, opens the Lungs, and relieves cough and congestion. 🥕 Good respiratory health contributes to a good immune system. Modern research tells us daikon is high in vitamin C and has many antibacterial/antiviral properties. 🥕 Daikon’s cool nature helps clear heat (and inflammation).  Inflammation is associated with virtually every disease, including cancer. Several sources say daikon is now used to fight cancer cells! 🥕 When cooked, daikon is more stimulating to the digestive system. Again, modern research says it is high in digestive enzymes, which make it a good companion when eating foods high in fat. 🥕 A few ideas for daikon:
-Pickled daikon
–Daikon rice cakes
-Daikon congee
-Added to soups
–Baked daikon pastries #chinesemedicine #chineseherbalmedicine #chinesenutrition #nutrition #daikonradish #daikon #superfood #respiratoryhealth #immune #immunesystem
