Healing
of Nighttime/Frequent  or Urgent Urination
 Frequent
Urination Is Inconvenient and Possibly Embarrassing 
Frequent
urination is not a fatal disorder, but it can be very inconvenient as one has to
look for a restroom frequently. At night, one may have to get up to go to the
bathroom 2 to 6 times, resulting in inadequate sleep. In addition to frequency
of urination, many patients may also have urgency or the sensation of having to
go to the bathroom immediately. Some individuals have urination leakage during
laughter or coughing, which is both inconvenient and embarrassing. 
 
Frequent
Urination and Increased Thirst 
 Frequent
urination can be caused by infection which can be treated by antibiotics. But if
it is the result of pregnancy or a chronic condition, it cannot be treated with
medication. According to Chinese medicine, there is a low body heat constitution* 
 
Is
Nighttime Urination Normal? 
 Because
of the normal process of aging, people over 60 years of age may need to go to
the rest room once per night. But if you need to go two or more times during the
night, not only is it inconvenient, but it disturbs the sleep pattern. If you
are younger than 60, then you are not supposed to have nighttime urination at
all. Nighttime urination is an indicator of an underlying chronic disorder.
Please listen to your body.
 
A

is a sign of other chronic disorders. No one should discount this message from
your body. Potentially, there is a long list of chronic conditions which are the

A
Case among Many Successful Stories 
Ms. D. is a 70 year old lady. This is her story:
“During Owen's Qigong diagnosis, he asked if my bladder functions were normal.
Owen reminded me that I needed to go to the restroom frequently. I had to go
four to five times every night, which caused me to not sleep well. Also, when
carrying a heavy load, the urine would come out by itself. After Owen's first
Tuina treatment, I was amazed that I only needed to go to the restroom once each
night. Even on the third night, after I drank two bowls of soup, I only went to
the restroom once. My number of visits to the restroom also reduced during the
day. I don't have to keep looking for restrooms while enjoying windowshopping.”
 
Note:*The
low body heat constitution is also called the “false heat” condition in
Chinese medicine. The person with low  body heat is likely to have a dry mouth and often feel thirsty.
