Feel a Different Winter: 2025–2026 San Jiu Tie Program Is Coming
Winter is more than just cold weather, it is a critical season for strengthening the body’s foundation. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), winter is when the body conserves energy and builds reserves. How well you care for your health during this period can directly affect your immunity and overall well-being in the year ahead.
From December 22, 2025 to January 31, 2026, the 2025–2026 San Jiu Tie (三九貼) program returns at Tzu Chi Wellness Group (TCWG) and Traditional Chinese Medicine Ontario, “Feel a Different Winter.”
What Is San Jiu Tie?
San Jiu Tie is a traditional TCM therapy applied during the coldest days of winter, known as the “San Jiu” period. Herbal patches are placed on specific acupuncture points to stimulate the body, warm the meridians, and strengthen defensive energy (衛氣 / Wei Qi).
This therapy has been used for generations to support:
- Immune system strength
- Respiratory health
- Cold sensitivity and frequent illness
- Seasonal allergies and asthma
- General vitality during winter
Rather than treating symptoms after illness appears, San Jiu Tie focuses on prevention and strengthening from within.[1]
Why Winter Matters in TCM
In TCM theory, winter is associated with the Kidneys and the storage of vital energy. Cold weather can weaken the body’s defenses, making people more vulnerable to colds, flu, and chronic respiratory issues.[2] San Jiu Tie works in harmony with this seasonal rhythm by:
- Warming the body internally
- Enhancing circulation and energy flow
- Supporting long-term immune resilience
Many patients report fewer winter illnesses and improved overall energy after completing a full San Jiu Tie course.
Feel a Different Winter This Year
This winter, instead of bracing against the cold, imagine moving through the season with greater comfort, balance, and resilience.
The 2025–2026 San Jiu Tie program is designed for those who want to:
- Strengthen immunity naturally
- Reduce reliance on medication for seasonal issues
- Take a proactive, preventive approach to health
- Experience winter with more stability and ease
Everybody is different, and our practitioners assess each individual to ensure the treatment is suitable and personalized. San Jiu Tie is also suitable for children older than 3 years old, too.
