[ASMR] Sleep Clinic Acupuncture Treatment (Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor Roleplay)

[@semideasmr]

Welcome to Dr. Coco’s Traditional Chinese Medicine clinic! Hope you have a wonderful night of restful sleep after this acupuncture treatment and herbal tea. **In case you ask** Yes I speak Mandarin-it’s a beautiful language :) I’m still learning and my accent and grammar aren’t great, but I’m hoping to continue to improve my skills to help future patients. My ethnicity is Central Asian Turkic. Hoping to make more videos showcasing my heritage too. I’m a naturopathic medical student, and among the many modalities we learn is Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is an ancient medicine used for thousands of years that has been increasingly shown in scientific research to be effective for many health conditions.

SemideCoco chinese is hard. When I watch my stepmom typing -- whoa . My dad knows a little chinese just enough that when he was in China he wouldn’t starve

[@semideasmr]

@Monika Kamila I agree. There are thousands of characters to memorize and the pronunciation is hard too. But it is such a useful language!

[@chenkylin9068]

SemideCoco As a native speaker, I must say that your Chinese is almost perfect!

[@robertgordon668]

We'll sign me up for a consultation.😀

@Chen Pan 真的吗？谢谢您😊

[@teymura3461]

She has a degree in biology, is studying to be a doctor, is helping people with PCOS and creating awareness for it, is creating ASMR content for our benefit and she also speaks Mandarin. Is there anything she can’t do? True role model.

[@watertribeskye]

Also, the fact that you're doing a Chinese themed video is really great considering there has been a lot of anti Chinese sentiment as of late. Showcasing your Mandarin skills and teaching us a bit about Chinese traditional medicine is really sweet and necessary right now in these times of anti Asian racism. Thank you!

[@semideasmr]

I absolutely agree. Anti-Chinese and anti-Asian racism is rising everywhere, and it's so sad to see and even witness. Hoping I can spread more love and pay tribute to the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

I love how you change the POV throughout your videos, you’re always so realistic and naturally relaxing! Love your videos 🧡☺️

[@aura6485]

Absolutely love this video! Really calming and your voice is really soft and not loud at all. Non-western medicine is hardly mentioned or taken seriously so I enjoyed this video a lot

[@semideasmr]

So happy you enjoyed it my friend! I agree the traditional medicines are so important and fascinating!

[@watertribeskye]

Ah I Iove acupuncture videos! Even though I'm deathly terrified of needles irl I love asmr videos that involve them for some reason lol. Love the intro too! Reminds me of Latte, very calming and cinematic, great job as always!! And your Mandarin is so calming ahhhhh I've always found the language really flow-y and pretty, hearing you speak it was such a treat

[@semideasmr]

So happy that you enjoyed the intro and my Mandarin speaking! Thank you very much :)

[@fridakahlo27]

I love the kind of "candle light" color in every of your videos its so relaxing❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@amyjones3744]

Please, please, please do more videos like this, I've suffered with insomnia for years and a friend recently suggested asmr acupuncture and I found you. I love how you talk through everything that you are doing because I can close my eyes and still know what you're doing and it really works. You've changed my sleep completely and I'm so grateful, you're incredibly talented and I am so glad I found you. Take care, stay safe, be well xoxo

[@eugeniavivas72]

Omg at first I didn’t realize you were speaking Mandarin and I was like hm why am I not understanding her English so I rewinded and I was like OH wait that’s not English LOL my mind played me so ooo bad

[@poetgb]

I find this video fascinating. The intro is so nice how you set up the items on the tray. I like the segment when you ask questions and write down the answers. The sounds of the pen on paper is quite relaxing. I'm curious to know what language you spoke early in the video. That is so interesting that you said in Chinese medicine certain emotions are connected to certain body organs. By listening to you I can see that you are very intelligent and very knowledgeable on the traditional art of natural medicinal healing. I never experienced Acupuncture before, but wow, watching this video made me feel I experienced an Acupuncture session. You are that good and realistic in your roleplay here. I love the close ups of your gorgeous face. Your smile melts me. I love the sweet sound of your soothing voice. I felt so relaxed listening. This video is entertaining as well as informative.

[@semideasmr]

Thank you for the lovely comment. Made my day as always! I was speaking Mandarin in the beginning :) Yes Traditional Chinese medicine is so fascinating I’m glad you think so too. Yay you experienced a simulated acupuncture session! It’s not too far off from reality, the only difference is the achy sensations of the needle going in and the health benefits of course. Thank you and have a wonderful rest of the week!

[@poetgb]

@@semideasmr So that is Mandarin. I like the way you added that in your video. Yes, you can say I experienced a simulated Acupuncture session. I hope you enjoy your week. Thank you.

[@TargaWheels]

Is it true that Mandarin is harder to learn than Cantonese? Would be interesting to hear you speak Mandarin throughout a video. ☺👍

[@semideasmr]

I imagine they are both very difficult! I don't speak Cantonese though.

[@senesterium]

I didn't notice any major grammar differences, it's rather a matter of vocabulary, like many languages of the same families seems alike. However, Cantonese tones are HELL. Mandarin has two pitch tones (medium and high), and three contour tones (middle to high, high to low, and medium-low to low to medium-high). The last one might be the only difficult to produce, once you get the concept of tones. You can't mixup them, as they are pretty "extremely" different as opposites. Cantonese on the other hand has three pitch tones (medium-low, medium and high), and you can already mixup the first two, but the high tone also has a final drop to medium-high. And three contour tones that are just mind-blowing : one that start slightly below medium-low and raise slightly below it, one that follow the exact same path in the first third and drops almost but not exactly to low, and one that starts again at the same medium-low point as four of the others, follow them for a third, then raise extremely to cross the high pitch and drops a bit later. PLUS three checked tones, that are short high, medium and low tones without final drop for closed syllables. You may lend a hear at this nice, reasonable video : kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWPOnpKwaZJkipo.

[@zazollo]

I’ve heard a few times that grammatically Mandarin (and probably also Cantonese, I’m guessing) is actually very simple. I’m curious how true that is.

[@semideasmr]

Wow just reading it makes it sound impossible but would love to learn Cantonese! Thanks for the explanation!

I know this is an ASMR video but I found it very interesting. I really knew nothing about acupuncture well at least the process. You must do some research before all of your videos.
