Heart and Kidney Yin Deficiency

 Heart and Kidney Yin Deficiency in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is associated with a deficiency of the cooling, nourishing (Yin) aspect of these organs, which can lead to excess heat, restlessness, and a variety of physical and emotional symptoms. This imbalance often arises from factors like chronic stress, overwork, and lack of proper rest. Here are the common symptoms associated with Heart and Kidney Yin Deficiency:

TCM treatment for Heart and Kidney Yin Deficiency aims to nourish the Yin of both organs, cool excess heat, and calm the Shen (spirit), helping to restore balance and alleviate symptoms, especially those impacting sleep and mental calm.
