In Chinese Medicine excessive heat in the body is one the main imbalances we see. It causes unpleasant symptoms and diseases depending on which channel the heat is most affecting.
Lung Heat (excess heat in the lung channel) causes the following problems:
Throat issues - dry throat, sore throat, loss of voice
Lung issues - coughing even when there is no infection, coughing up blood, feeling hot all the time
Emotional symptoms - agitation, anxiety, sadness, fearfulness
Stomach problems - vomiting, acid reflux, difficulty eating due to stomach pain
Wow, thats a lot of trouble from excessive heat in the body. How do you get rid of it...? Fortunately there are acupuncture points specifically designed to drain heat from the various channels. Thank goodness for that!
