I have a patient who is the perfect picture of Lung Qi deficiency! She has a very weak voice, and when she talks, it takes effort. In addition, she has asthma since she was a child, eczema on her wrists, and catches colds, pneumonia and other pathogens which weakens her Wei (defensive) Qi every time!

As practitioners, we truly have to be detectives. Keep looking for clues and get all the facts. This will allow us to make tailored treatments for each patient, thereby providing more successful outcomes.

Today, I look at the TCM LUNG system and discuss how to differentiate all its patterns with symptoms. We’ll also go over what questions to ask during the inquiry method of TCM diagnosis.

Enjoy the video below and let me know what you think.
And as always keep rocking with TCM!
