Introducing the Natural Fertility Network

The Natural Fertility Network is a group of skilled practitioners who specialize in the treatment of fertility.

Jenn Collins L.Ac. , MSOM, has joined together with two naturopathic physicians, a Fertility Awareness Educator, and a Maya abdominal massage practitioner.  These knowledgeable healthcare providers collaborate on cases and use a combined approach to optimizing fertility and treating imbalances in the reproductive systems of both women and men.  Jenn’s contribution of acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine helps increase circulation of blood and nutrients to the reproductive organs helping to enhance their performance.

The New Acupuncture in Town: Classical Five-Element Acupuncture

By Julie Bibleheimer, LAc

In ancient China, ‘as above, so below,’ was not just a philosophy, but also a medical paradigm. What is outside of us is also to be found internally, and these ancient healers defined the natural world by the elements of Water, Wood, Fire, Earth and Metal. Based on their observations from living attuned with nature, they linked each element to a host of things, including but by no means limited to a season, emotion, color, sound, and body organ system. In Classical Five-Element Acupuncture, diagnosing the play of these elements within our bodies is the key to treatments intended to guide the body back to its original, natural state of health.

Coexist

By Julie Bibleheimer, LAc

I enjoy the progressive bumper stickers that adorn the cars of Ashland, and the peace flags on the houses here. Just imagine the change in the world if our community’s dedication to tolerance, sustainability, and healthy lifestyle choices were the norm throughout the United States? If only meditation were as practiced in Alabama as it is in Ashland. I am honored to be a member of this community, dedicated to co-creating a better world!

But what is it that makes placing my mat down in yoga class at the YMCA such a tension fraught experience? What induces those glares from fellow customers at the juice counter at the co-op? [Read more…]

Attuning with the Fall Season

by Jenn Collins, L.Ac.

AutumnThe Fall season is a time to reflect and begin turning our energy inward.  Many of us have had extremely busy fun-filled summers and our bodies are ready for a health tune up. As the days shorten and temperatures fluctuate from hot to cold, this is a wonderful time of year to boost the immune system.  Practice good hand washing and up your probiotics and vitamins C and D. Drink plenty of water and get the proper amount of rest.  Come for acupuncture prior to catching a cold to build your immune system.  Watch out for those initial cold symptoms such as chills, body aches, fevers, sore throat and headaches. This symptom set is one which we call wind-heat.  When noticed early, wind heat can be treated very effectively with acupuncture and immune forumlas such as Initial Defense, Flew Away or Yin Qiao.

Sailing the Waters of Zero Balancing

by Shanti Rae Lobaugh

You might be wondering: What exactly is Zero Balancing? This is a question I’m asked quite often. When answering, I like to toss out a question of my own: What do you think it means to be completely balanced? Visualizations of “balance” might include a gymnast perched confidently on a beam or a ballerina spinning gracefully on her toe. While these are great examples, I once read a really powerful analogy of what it looks like when several elements are in perfect balance and it has to do with sailing. If you’ve ever been on a sailboat or watched one sail by, you’ve witnessed a symbiotic relationship among wind, water and structure. As every sailor knows, in order to sail smoothly, the sails and hull (or “structure”) must be in correct alignment with the wind and water currents. Once these forces are balanced or aligned, the boat will sail right along–practically on its own. [Read more…]
