Equinox
The Spring Equinox has arrived
Swallows return, thunder begins to sound
Day and night are equal, flowers are worn and wine is drunk
The holistic view of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) emphasizes the harmony between humans and nature, aligning with natural rhythms, and recognizes that the growth patterns of all things are consistent.
The Spring Equinox signifies the balance of day and night, and the equilibrium of cold and heat. Therefore, during this season, attention should be paid to maintaining the balance of Yin and Yang within the body, valuing harmony above all, so that all ailments can harmonize and not arise.

Dietary Nourishment
During the Spring Equinox, eat seasonal vegetables. The saying goes, “Do not eat out of season,” meaning that one should not consume fruits and vegetables that are not in season. Seasonal vegetables include leeks, spinach, and spring bamboo shoots; late spring fruits that nourish the liver and lungs, such as strawberries; and consume sweet foods like red dates that nourish the spleen while avoiding sour and spicy foods.

TCM Herbal Therapy
The fundamental cause of disease development is the imbalance of Yin and Yang, therefore, adjusting Yin and Yang, replenishing deficiencies and reducing excesses, and restoring the coordinated balance of Yin and Yang is the fundamental principle of disease treatment. TCM employs unique treatment methods such as acupuncture, moxibustion, acupoint application, oral herbal medicine, or topical applications to achieve the harmony of Yin and Yang, ensuring the health and safety of the body.
