Therapy procedure Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Every therapy is preceded by a clear diagnosis. This means that the therapist must clarify which functional disorders or which energetic imbalances are present in the respective patient. For this purpose, existing X-ray images can be helpful. According to the findings, the therapist will intervene in the disease process by discharging, releasing Qi congestion, tonifying, sedating, warming or cooling.

TCM diagnosis The essence of diagnosis in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is that the therapist uses his or her senses in order to grasp all phenomena of the patient. The main methods of diagnosis in TCM are:

Observation The diagnostic utilization pathophysiogonomy is a traditional experience of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). The inside is reflected in the outside.

Sound The sound of the voice provides information about the energy level, especially of the lungs. Whereby disturbances of the lungs can also be derived from other disharmonies.

Questioning The patient's statements about his medical history and his personal social environment, as well as specific questions, are the focal points in the overall diagnosis and take up the most time.

Pulse diagnosis Pulse diagnosis is an essential feature of Chinese medicine and requires a great deal of sensitivity and many years of experience. With three fingers the therapist feels the pulse and distinguishes between 28 pulse qualities at superficial, medium and deeper finger pressure.

Tongue diagnosis Organ dysfunctions are reflected in the tongue. Blood or energy deficiencies as well as pathogenic factors are also expressed in the tongue body or tongue coating. There are more than 30 manifestations of the tongue condition and 50 of the tongue coating, which indicate various diseases and their stages of development. Picture pulse diagnosis
