-this is a specially designed tool that will help you find the root cause of a symptom and understand it from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine.  

We designed 10 thorough symptom menus organised by Body Region and Organ System. Selecting one or more symptoms will take you directly to the material that explains the symptom's underlying condition and its causes.

 

Note: This option provides a basic overview and has an educational purpose. To get a precise diagnosis for your condition in TCM terms you need to see a TCM professional in person.

 TCM Food Therapy 

paid subscription content

The subscription content of the project is based on traditional Chinese medicine unique perspective that food and herbs come from the same source thus all foods have medicinal properties equally as herbs do. Beside acupuncture and herbal prescriptions traditional Chinese medicine also incorporates food therapy - a non-toxic yet highly effective biochemical approach to health and disease.

Food is something we continuously use to sustain our lives. Learning what foods are healing (and what disruptive) for our condition has the potential to convert every single meal into a form of therapy. As we eat couple of times a day the "food as medicine" approach turns daily food consumption into multiple daily treatments that help tackle physical and emotional disharmonies and work for restoring and maintaing health.

 


Food Therapy for Emotional Imbalance

Mountain9 

 

 In traditional Chinese medicine difficult emotions are approached through our mental awareness but can also be approached through our vitality and physiology. Seven negative emotions such as anger, worry, sadness, fear, etc. are associated with the disharmony of a certain organ or organ system. Benefiting the organ/organ system that the emotion is associated with can help release/transform the emotion itself. We designed a unique tool, that after selecting one of the above emotions and the physical symptoms that accompany it, you will learn foods and acupressure points that are beneficial for the organ/organ system associated with this emotion. And through that - beneficial for transforming the difficult emotion itself.   

  


  Food Therapy for Body Pain and Inflammation

Inflammatory conditions and pain are best counteracted in the long run by changing the diet and lifestyle. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine the Liver and Kidney functions need to be improved, toxic fluids from the Spleen need to be drained, and the digestion needs to be harmonized.

 


Food Therapy for Women

This option is designed to help the busy health conscious woman learn how to balance her health with foods, spices, herbal teas and acupressure by selecting the signs and symptoms that are unique for her body.

A compilation between traditional Chinese medicine principles and personal parental experience this option offers an outlook to children's health and their most common diseases from a completely different perspective.  


 Seasonal Menu 

In traditional Chinese medicine each season corresponds to a certain Element (from the Five Elements theory). To each Element corresponds a certain color. We designed a unique yearly menu that incorporates the five colors fruits, vegetables and herbs for each of the five seasons.  In our menu you will find five colors seasonal breakfasts, desserts, herbal teas and spreads, as well as meals with "seasonal meats" and "seasonal grains". 

 


 Acupressure Therapy

Acupressure is included in all of the above options. It is also part of:  

Open Point Calculator

The  Open Point Calculator is designed based on an ancient Chinese healing system that practices treatment methods according to the daily cycle rather than personal signs and symptoms.  By stimulating the "open point" of the day and hour - an acupuncture point that steadily changes - excess turbid energy exits the body while deficient, scarce energy gets supplemented.

 


 Point Location Videos 

The Project additionally offers more than 45 point location videos to help easily locate the acupressure points appointed in the above options. The videos cover the most significant and most commonly used acupressure points in traditional Chinese medicine which stimulate physical and emotional recovery and restore the balance.
