Look to the digestive health aisle in your local pharmacy to see how prevalent this issue is. Poor digestion is so ubiquitous that many believe it’s something that they just have to live with. Not true. Your quality of life can and will improve, with simple, natural adjustments that use nothing but your own wise body as guide and healer. https://www.koanacupuncture.ca/blog/eye-strain-self-acupressure monthly 0.5 2026-02-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e2460fe1b5b5319da02269/bbc8a065-f8f6-4df3-919f-f3bcfadbdafc/eye+acupressure_asset_KHH.jpg Blog - Eye Strain: Soothing Self-Acupressure https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e2460fe1b5b5319da02269/81aa5b28-306a-4dd8-978b-eb59b88c1bb4/KHH_eyeacupoints.jpg Blog - Eye Strain: Soothing Self-Acupressure https://www.koanacupuncture.ca/blog/10-eye-exercises monthly 0.5 2026-02-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e2460fe1b5b5319da02269/1719947129108-TRNF9X2LRISSL927ZTNC/image_eye+exercise.jpg Blog - Eye Strain: 10 Easy Exercises There are "Three Treasures” in Chinese Medicine: the Qi, the Jing, and the Shen. The energy, essence, and spirit, respectively, are the foundations of a human being. The eyes are a reflection of the Shen and Jing. Jingshen literally means health, therefore bright and clear eyes reveal healthy constitution and mind, while dull and listless eyes show imbalances in the material and immaterial body. The following exercises help to alleviate eye symptoms including soreness, tiredness, blurriness, floaters, double vision, astigmatism and assist in preventing further degeneration of eyesight. At the same time, since the eyes reflect overall health, doing this simple routine can revitalize and maintain wellness of mind and body. https://www.koanacupuncture.ca/blog/neck-pain-self-acupressure monthly 0.5 2026-02-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e2460fe1b5b5319da02269/b57a4bca-f7b1-4b35-9f5f-32abce545fdc/acupuncture+points+-+neck.jpg Blog - Neck Pain: Move Qi with Self-Acupressure The neck is the thoroughfare of qi, blood, and fluids between the head and body. All of the meridians directly or indirectly connect to the neck. Thus it’s crucial to maintain healthy flow of energy and material through the cervical region. Pain occurs when the flow is obstructed. Pressing on acupuncture points along the meridians of the neck can help alleviate and prevent neck and shoulder pain, strain, and weakness by activating flow of qi and blood in this region. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65e2460fe1b5b5319da02269/d6ea545b-d03f-48f5-97d4-4d16b1896c68/KHH_li4hegu.jpg Blog - Neck Pain: Move Qi with Self-Acupressure - 1.
