Do you feel dizzy or lightheaded when standing up?
This is extremely common in KL & Bukit Jalil, especially among women and working adults.

Common symptoms include:

• Dizziness when standing up

• Vision “blackout” for a few seconds

• Lightheaded, floating feeling

• Palpitations or fast heartbeat

• Cold hands & feet

• Fatigue, low energy

• Worse around menstruation

• Poor sleep & high stress

From a TCM perspective, this indicates Qi & Blood deficiency, weak circulation, Spleen deficiency, or Liver Qi stagnation.
