Health Myths
Health myths ... you may be expecting to find out about misleading and deceptive claims, about ideas and products that affect your health. But at Lao Xian’s Teahouse ...
A Myth Is A Truth
The “myths” we’re presenting are from tales, lore, legends, and stories, that reach back far into our collective past. Stories that package “facts of life” in a wrapper made of metaphor and poetic perspective. A process that begins with thought, and continues with a feeling.
So loosen your gaze, and let your peripheral vision come into focus. You’ll begin to see beneficial possibilities that you didn’t even know were there.

When your body becomes stressed from normal activities, or from a virus or other pathogen, the meridians carrying energy (chi) to your internal organs become restricted. When your organs don’t have the proper amount of energy flowing to them, health problems occur.
Using hair-thin, gently-inserted, sterile disposable needles, acupuncture is used to stimulate points on the restricted meridians to relieve the symptoms you’re experiencing, and to unblock and balance the flow of energy (chi) to the affected organs.
