Apply a warm (not hot) compress to the scalp for 5 minutes daily to stimulate blood flow to hair follicles using moxibustion or a heated towel.

→ TARGET: Scalp circulation

Nutrient-Rich Hydration

1min

Drink a glass of warm water with a squeeze of lemon first thing in the morning to support kidney function and blood formation in TCM terms.
