Pulse Reading
Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnosis
What is pulse reading?
There are different positions and levels that represent particular organ systems. Upon palpation, we gather information about the body's imbalances that manifest: externally (example: physical pain or discomfort), internally (example: digestive health), or emotionally (example: anxiety). It is a holistic approach, as the mind-body-spirit is an intricately interdependent system. We treat the root cause of the disease or condition.
