Don't be surprised when Nikki asks to look at your tongue. She asks everyone. The human tongue will show a lot about what is going on inside your body. Your tongue, pulse and many other clues all aid in making a diagnosis for the patient and are essential in helping to form a treatment plan.
Information is gathered in order to make a diagnosis. A
practitioner of TCM will use four methods (looking, listening,
asking and palpation). By using a combination of a patients
signs and symptoms the practitioner can determine the patterns of
disharmony which requires rebalancing.
