Anemia

Anemia — whether iron-deficiency, B12-deficiency, or of chronic disease — is read in TCM as Blood deficiency, often accompanied by Spleen Qi weakness. Underlying cause matters: heavy menstrual bleeding, malabsorption, chronic inflammation all shape the treatment. We work in coordination with lab-based medical management.

Herbal formulas for Blood-building are a core tool, alongside acupuncture to strengthen the Spleen and improve absorption. Iron or B12 supplementation may still be needed depending on the case — we work alongside rather than instead of that. Retesting labs after 8–12 weeks is standard.
