Registered Acupuncturist and Traditional Chinese M Registered Acupuncturist and Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner Kavita Gill explains what cupping is and why it's important in our most recent blog post on our website. 

Cupping can relieve pain and muscle tension and it also has diagnostic significance offering a deeper insight into the health of a person's organs.

We have multiple practitioners at Urban Wellness that offer this ancient Traditional Chinese Medicine technique.

"Nourishing Change of Season Soup" This classic T "Nourishing Change of Season Soup"

This classic Traditional Chinese Medicine healing soup recipe boosts your immune system and helps your body transition between the seasons. 

We suggest you make a big batch of the herbal blend with bone broth or add it into a chicken soup and store it in the freezer, so any time you're feeling slightly run down you can have it ready in a flash.

Bon appetite and we hope you enjoy a healthy autumn season!
