Do your hands shake more often than you’d like to admit?

Common symptoms include:

• Hands trembling when holding objects

• Shaky handwriting

• Hand tremors worsen under stress

• Tremors appear when fatigued

• Difficulty carrying drinks or utensils

• Occasional palpitations or shortness of breath

• Worse with poor sleep or high anxiety

Hand tremors are common among adults in KL & Bukit Jalil.
In TCM, trembling hands reflect internal imbalance of Qi, Blood, Liver wind or the Heart–Spleen system — not just a “hand problem.”

 How TCM Understands Hand Tremors

1 Qi–Blood Deficiency (Most Common)

shaky hands
fatigue
weak grip
cold limbs

Weak Qi–Blood → poor nourishment to the nerves and muscles.

2 Liver Wind Stirring (Stress-related Tremors)

tremors worsen with anxiety
emotional tension
poor sleep increases shaking

3 Heart–Spleen Deficiency

trembling + palpitations
poor sleep
easy fatigue

4 Dampness Blocking the Channels

heavy hands
trembling + numbness
worse in humid weather

5 Blood Stasis

chronic tremors
fixed area discomfort
poor hand circulation
