The Chinese speaking teacher with my Singaporean translator who can speak Tagalog, Chinese and English was there to translate and explain to me. My knowledge and advancement of my skills in Chinese Therapy especially in the field of Moxibustion i really gives credit to her and her name is Sally Ang. I'm very interested to learn this skills but I'm the only staff in my previous company who was deprived to learn because I can't speak and understand mandarin. But God knows my desire. Sally accompanied the teacher to train us in our spa and there i knew that she can speak English and tagalog. My mind suddenly fly out of the sky! I want to resign and look for another job and be an expert in MOXIBUSTION THERAPY.

Signs of Liver Imbalance

“The physician who knows how to harmonize the liver knows how to treat the hundred diseases.”

~From Zhou Xuehai, Reflections Upon Reading the Medical Classics, ca. 1895.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) the liver and gallbladder organ systems are paired. Being diagnosed as having a gallbladder or liver imbalance does not necessarily mean that your liver or gallbladder is not functioning properly in the Western Medical sense. In TCM, the liver and gallbladder systems include the physical organs, the acupuncture channels associated with the organs, and related disharmonies or patterns. Noticing that one of these systems is out of balance can prevent future issues from developing. Our liver system is the primary detoxifier our bodies, in fact, every single thing you eat/drink/consume is filtered through your liver. Additionally, from the TCM view, strong emotions such as anger, frustration, and high stress are also processed by the liver system. As you might expect, most modern humans have a very overloaded liver. Supporting liver function can improve your health in nearly every way.

The Gallbladder and Liver Acupuncture  Meridians

The TCM Liver system:

• Manifests in the Nails
• Opens to the Eyes
• In charge of coursing and draining functions
• Stores the blood
• Is associated with Sour taste
• Controls Tendons/Ligaments
• Season: Spring
• Time of day: 1-3am
• Houses the subconscious, related to dreaming
• Emotions: Anger, resentment, repressed and unexpressed feelings
• Liver: planning and strategy
• Gallbladder: decision making

So how does this translate into symptoms? Gallbladder and liver imbalance can present in  many ways.

Common symptoms:

• Migraines/headaches especially in the temples, behind one eye or of throbbing nature
• Red or itchy eyes, night blindness
• High-pitched ringing in the ears
• Cold sores, shingles, genital herpes, yeast infections, oozing rashes
• Tendonitis, tight ligaments
• Rib tenderness/tightness along sides of body
• Feeling of something stuck in the throat
• Mood swings, frustration or irritability, or a sensation of being disconnected
• Difficulty making decisions, inability to make plans
• Craving for sour foods or alcohol
• Sour or bitter taste in mouth
• Irregular or incomplete feeling bowel movements (soft to hard), constipation, small broken stools
• Painful cramping or irregular menstrual cycles
• Poor vision, floaters in vision, blurred vision
• Waking during the night between 1 and 3am
• Stressful or anxious dreams
• Nail fungus, brittle or ridged nails
• Belching, acid reflux, vomiting/nausea
• Jaw clenching/teeth grinding
• Fatigue
• Jaundice
• Dizziness
• Hypertension
• Sensitivity or aversion to windy weather

What can you do to support your liver?

Your acupuncturist can tell you whether your liver imbalance is one of excess or deficiency and this will determine how to best support it. Often people experience what we call “Liver Qi Stagnation”, which means energy isn’t flowing smoothly, or from a Western perspective, possibly that your liver isn’t working 100% optimally (but not to the point of abnormal blood work). This can present as a combination of symptoms listed above, and often with symptoms which alternate day-to-day, week-to-week, or change frequently.

If you have Liver “Qi Stagnation”:

• Moderate Exercise
• Practice light alcohol intake, sometimes a little alcohol helps
• Practice light caffeine intake, sometimes a little caffeine helps
• Seek healthy emotional outlets: journaling, talk therapy, expressing feelings regularly
• Resolve current or past emotional tensions
• Go to sleep by 11pm

If you have a Liver “Excess”:

• Exercise, something that really gets your heart rate up
• Reduce or eliminate alcohol
• Reduce pharmaceuticals, including over the counter meds like ibuprofen, aspirin, etc. (with your doctor’s supervision)
• Eat sour foods such as: pickles, sauerkraut, kimchi, green apples, green grapes
• Eat cooling foods such as: celery, sprouts, seaweed, mushrooms, radish, watercress and chrysanthemum flower tea
• Reduce intake of fried foods, sugary foods, and caffeine
• Switch to natural cleaning and personal care products, and organic produce and meats
• Practice calming stress-relief activities: meditation, yoga (not heated), journaling

If you have a Liver “Deficiency”:

• Practice light exercise, avoid strenuous activity
• Rest more—even just laying down with closed eyes helps
• Eat tonifying foods: spirulina, chlorophyll-rich foods, dark grapes, blackberries, huckleberries, blackstrap molasses, gelatin, artichoke, beets, dandelion leaf, kelp, avocado, dates, black sesame seed, oysters, chicken soup, eggs, beef and organic animal liver
• Control any blood loss, including heavy periods (acupuncture and herbs work)
• Switch to natural cleaning and personal care products, and organic produce and meats

Acupuncture and herbal therapy are both incredibly effective at restoring balance to your liver and gallbladder organ systems. Regular consistent treatment along with appropriate diet, exercise, and rest will allow your body to heal and resolve symptoms quickly and safely.

If you have a more advanced condition such as hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, ascites, cancer, fatty liver disease, gallstones, cholecystitis or others, acupuncture and herbal medicine can help. There are numerous studies showing the powerful effects of a variety of natural herbal options in supporting both liver and gallbladder function. Contact me for more information.

Using Traditional Chinese Medicine for Liver and Eye Health

With three common liver imbalances to choose from, learn how selecting the right dietary therapy strategy can help improve eyesight.

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), many problems with the eyes are related to the health of the liver organ system. Strategies to restore the liver to optimal function consequently improve eye health. A licensed practitioner of TCM is the only one who can responsibly administer the modalities of acupuncture and herbal remedies to correct such a liver imbalance. However, there is another, more user-friendly branch of TCM that can effectively accomplish the same feat. Those who take the time to learn about the imbalances that impact the eyes can use TCM dietary therapy to improve the health of their liver for their eyes’ benefit.

In TCM, the health of the liver goes far beyond any Western medical diagnosis. Herein lays one of TCM’s greatest strengths – the ability to detect an imbalance in an organ system prior to a confirmed illness. Historically considered to be the secret behind the longevity of many Chinese emperors, TCM practitioners were traditionally only paid when their patients were healthy. This is possible because indications of imbalance are detectable long before a physical problem manifests. By identifying which pattern a person’s signs and symptoms fall under, imbalances can be corrected before a serious illness takes hold.

Liver Imbalances That Affect the Eyes
As described by Giovanni Maciocia in The Foundations of Chinese Medicine, the following three TCM liver imbalances are behind a variety of eye-related problems:

1.    Liver Blood Deficiency – Liver blood is believed to nourish and moisten the eyes. When the liver blood is deficient, common problems include blurry vision, myopia, “floaters” in the eyes, color blindness or dry eyes. In addition, liver blood deficiency can cause pale or scanty menstruation, fatigue and muscle cramps.

2.    Liver Heat – When there is heat in the liver and liver channel, the eyes are likely to be dry, bloodshot, painful or have a burning sensation. In addition, liver heat is frequently connected with irritability, anger or frustration and may be accompanied by a headache.

3.    Internal Liver Wind – Usually a result of extreme heat in the liver, internal liver wind may cause the eyeball to turn upwards and move involuntarily (nystagmus). In addition, liver wind is frequently associated with severe emotional stress, vertigo, dizziness, neck stiffness and headache.

TCM Dietary Therapy
Dietary therapy is considered to be a powerful tool for correcting organ imbalances and is often used in conjunction with the other branches of TCM, namely acupuncture, herbal therapy and Qi Gong (therapeutic movement exercise). For an eye problem that falls into one of the three liver imbalances listed above, the TCM treatment strategies (including dietary therapy) are:

•    Tonify a liver blood deficiency

•    Cool liver heat

•    Extinguish internal liver wind

Foods known to accomplish these strategies are:

•    Tonify liver blood – spirulina, chlorophyll- rich foods, dark grapes, blackberries, huckleberries, blackstrap molasses, gelatin, artichoke, beets, dandelion leaf, kelp, avocado, dates, black sesame seed, oysters, chicken soup, eggs, beef and organic animal liver.

•    Cool liver heat – mung beans, mung sprouts, celery, seaweed, lettuce, cucumber, watercress, tofu, millet, plums, mushrooms, rhubarb, radish and daikon radish. Of particular note, chrysanthemum flower tea is known to clear liver heat and benefit the eyes, especially in cases of red, painful, dry, blurry eyes or excessive tearing.

•    Extinguish or reduce liver wind – celery, basil, sage, fennel, ginger, anise, oats, black soybean, black sesame seed, pine nuts, coconut, fresh cold-pressed flax oil, lemon and chamomile. Of particular note, these foods are known to worsen liver wind: eggs, crab meat and buckwheat.

If under a qualified practitioner’s care, various aspects of TCM (acupuncture, herbology, Qi Gong and dietary therapy) are likely to be employed together for optimal healing results. However, you can take control of your liver’s health by starting the process on your own. Although TCM dietary therapy is just one way to correct an organ imbalance, it is a powerful tool. After identifying which liver organ disharmony is impacting your eyes, you can include the dietary suggestions described above to help steer your liver and eyes back to a more balanced, healthful state.
