Hi everyone,
As we head into the holiday season, I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas and say a sincere thank you for being part of the On Point Natural Medicine community. It’s been a big year, and I truly appreciate the trust you place in me.
I’ll be taking a short break from 15–28 December, so if you’d like to book in before or after this period, please jump online early as spots fill quickly.
After-Christmas Reset: Supporting Digestion and Energy
The Christmas period usually brings richer meals, more social events, and a busier pace. It’s a fun time of year, but it can leave the body feeling a little out of rhythm.
From a Chinese medicine perspective, this time of year can place extra demand on the Stomach, Spleen, and Liver systems. When these become a bit overloaded, people often notice things like:
- a sense of bloating or heaviness after meals
- fluctuating energy levels
- feeling puffy or holding extra fluid
- restlessness or disrupted sleep
- irritability or a shorter fuse
- changes in bowel habits
- feeling mentally “foggy” or unfocused
These patterns are very common after Christmas and the summer festivities.
How a Post-Christmas Session May Help
Many people like to come in early January for a session to help settle back into routine. A treatment around this time may support:
- digestive comfort
- a sense of lightness
- smoother circulation and Qi flow
- a calmer, more regulated nervous system
- an easier transition into the new year
It can be a nice way to give the body a gentle reset after a busy December.

Closed: 15–28 December

☀️ Summer Wellness Tips
Start Your Journey to Holistic Well-being
Embracing TCM diet and lifestyle principles can be seen as a journey of learning and self-care. It’s about tuning into your body’s wisdom, making conscious choices, and cultivating habits that support vitality and balance.
Ready to explore how these time-honored principles can support your health?
We’re here to guide you.
In Chinese medicine, summer relates to the Heart and the quality of warmth and activity. Small, consistent habits can help you feel more settled and balanced:
- Keep hydrated through the day
- Include cooling foods like watermelon, cucumber, and leafy greens
- Move earlier in the morning when the temperature is kinder
- Take short pauses to slow and steady the breath
- Consider a seasonal tune-up if you’re noticing heat, stress, or sleep disruption
🎁 Gift Vouchers (Optional)
If you’d like to share a treatment with someone special, gift vouchers are available, just reach out and we’ll get that sorted for you.
Thank you again for your support throughout the year. I hope you have a restorative, enjoyable Christmas break, and I look forward to seeing you in the new year.
