Quick Read
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) utilizes diagnostic methods like tongue diagnosis, face mapping, and pulse reading to assess internal health.
Tongue analysis in TCM involves observing color, shape, and texture to identify organ imbalances, with different areas of the tongue corresponding to specific organs.
Face mapping connects facial areas to internal organs, where skin changes may indicate underlying imbalances or health issues.
Pulse reading in TCM assesses the flow of Qi and blood, focusing on the strength, depth, and quality of the pulse to reveal potential health imbalances.
