As we approach the transition from warm to cold season, the weather becomes colder and drier, making it more prone to triggering allergies and causing constant runny noses. Cold weather also slows down blood circulation, which might cause muscle stiffness and cold limbs.

Acupoint Application in Traditional Chinese Medicine

Traditional Chinese Medicine suggests a gentle treatment method known as "acupoint application" for children and those with long-term allergies and poor blood circulation, which can be highly effective. This "acupoint application" treatment aims to boost the body's yang energy, strengthen the immune system, and counter the cold.

How Acupoint Application Works

Traditional Chinese Medicine practices apply herbal patches to specific acupoints, allowing the medicine to permeate through the skin into the meridians, reaching the internal organs and dispelling cold trapped within the body. This method also helps to improve blood circulation, boost the body's yang energy, and provide support for the immune system while countering the cold.
