All diseases sprout from imbalances in our systems but they don’t always manifest as symptoms especially in the early stages. So people often live their lives not knowing there is a growing imbalance in our body that will eventually cause problems in the near future. Pulse reading is a simple, non-invasive examination that takes a minute to answer all these questions.

Sometimes you don’t need to do anything and the symptoms just get better. MRI, X-rays, blood tests cannot tell you this information. Pulse reading is the only way to find out whether your conditions will get better without treatment.

Not all symptoms are pathological. Some are just your body’s natural reactions to disease. One example is a fever.  When  a cold is caused by prolonged exposure to cold weather, then a fever is not pathological symptom that needs to be treated. Through a pulse reading, I can distinguish which symptoms need to be treated.

The most important fact that a doctor must tell you is the specific reason that caused your illness. Not knowing the root cause of your condition will lead to choosing the wrong treatment plan. Let me give you a simple example. You are allergic to bananas but you do not know this and have been eating bananas everyday for a month causing stomach discomfort and diarrhea. Diarrhea medicine might help but chances are you will develop these symptoms again if you don’t know the root cause of your symptoms. Pulse reading can help pinpoint the root cause. By knowing that eating bananas is the root cause, you can find the herb that reverses the effects of eating bananas, “the anti-banana,” and prevent any further incidences in the future.

Your pulse will dictate which acupuncture points and herbs to use and what lifestyle changes are needed for your treatment. It is the most important diagnosis to begin your journey to a better healthy lifestyle.
