From sneezing fits to food sensitivities and itchy skin, allergies can feel like an invisible assault on your body.

Understanding Tremors in Chinese MedicineIn Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), tremors are seen as manifestations of internal imbalances, particularly involving the liver and kidney energy systems.
