Who should do this?
Anyone can benefit from understanding what their pulses say about their state of health. Because your Chinese Medicine Pulse Diagnosis will uncover the root cause of your disease or imbalance, regardless of medical diagnosis; it will help you (and your practitioner) prioritize what to treat without using symptoms as the main guide. This can answer questions you have about your health in a new, clear way that leaves you hopeful about the future of your health. This approach can be extremely useful for chronic, long-term issues, misdiagnosed or un-diagnosable problems, issues that aren't going away with other therapies, etc. You can inquire if you're a good candidate by emailing Community Acupuncture of Marin.
The radial arteries of both wrists reveal a lot about your health, they can explain why you experiencing the symptoms you may have and can direct treatment in a unique way.
Through a Chinese Medicine Pulse Diagnosis, we can clearly identify a health concern back to its origins; so your treatment plan doesn't just endlessly chase after your symptoms, but treats the root.
We use Pulse Diagnosis at Community Acupuncture of Marin as a basis to write up a custom blended Chinese herbal formulation for you. Your herbs will address exactly what is reflected through your pulse. The herbs will be in powder form, easily dissolved in hot water to drink.

Chinese Medicine Pulse Diagnosis - How it Works
Pulse consultations are separate from acupuncture visits that you may be having at the clinic, and can be scheduled back-to-back with a treatment. When you come for a pulse session, we will sit for 10 minutes and feel the pulses qualities of different areas on both your wrists and based off that information, an herbal prescription will be written. We usually start with a week of herbs to see how you feel, and either refill the formula for 2 weeks or adjust the formula first. You are free to use this service for as long or as in-depth as you want. The general rule is the longer you've had a problem, the longer it takes to undo it!
The system I use was developed by Jimmy Chang. Jimmy is a genius who examined thousands of pulses in hospitals in Taiwan to organize this beautiful system. It is in total alignment with Chinese Medicine but also Western Medicine. His system is extremely accurate and can detect issues even before they are symptomatic.
I have studied with both Jimmy Chang and his master level student, Bob Doane.
I have now integrated this amazing service at my clinic in Novato, Community Acupuncture of Marin, which serves Marin and Sonoma county. You can be one of few to experience this rare and efficient art and medicine.
