Your skin is the largest organ in your body – it protects you against infection and disease. Your skin also helps regulate body temperature and it helps your body remove excess salt and water. From a Chinese medicine perspective the skin circulates the Wei Qi or defensive energy that protects you against colds and flu. For thousands of years the emphasis of Chinese medicine has always been to help people live longer and healthier naturally.
The health of your skin is affected by many factors such as stress, diet, quality of sleep, environmental pollution and holistic skin care.

Tune into the “The Fox 9 Buzz” on Channel 9 TV in the Twin Cities, Wednesday December 15th at 9AM. Watch Alix Kendall’s interview at our Minneapolis acupuncture clinic on the subject of Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture.
Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture is using acupuncture to non-surgically and naturally address the signs of aging on the face. The intention in the words of the ancient Chinese is: “Look as young as you can as long as you can.”
While modern technology has enabled us to use surgery and Botox (injecting botulinum toxin into facial muscles) to look younger, you might ask what are these people going to do 5 years down the road? Before you schedule an appointment for Botox, you might want to know a little more about it.
Botox uses the substance that causes botulism, a sometimes fatal form of food poisoning. Botox interrupts nerve impulses to muscles in the face. The crow’s feet that appear when you squint, the lines that furrow your brow when you raise your eyebrows and the creases between the eyebrows when you frown can be caused by tension in underlying muscles, which contract the skin. Botox keeps this from happening temporarily.

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture (also called Cosmetic Acupuncture) is extremely popular with movie stars and the entertainment industry. Stars such as Madonna and Cher receive it regularly to help them look young.
According to celebrity gossip website showbizspy.com, Hollywood superstar Sandra Bullock – who recently won an Oscar for her role in “The Blind Side” – has regular sessions of acupuncture.
“Sandra gets the treatment three times a week whether she’s at home on or on set” a source revealed to ShowBizSpy. “It’s in her contract that studios have to pay for it!”
Cosmetic Acupuncture is an effective, non-surgical treatment to reduce the signs of aging. It is based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which involves the insertion of very thin disposable needles designed to be used only for face, into the groups of designated acupuncture points on the face & body where needed.
