This knowledge was significantly expanded by centuries of study of Chinese, Indian, Persian, and Greek healing traditions.

Tibetan External Treatments:

IMBALANCES:

Today it is generally understood that imbalances are caused by to a large extent by an improper diet and/or lifestyle. Examples of this include alcoholism, hypertension, and high blood pressure.

EVALUATION:

Interview
The practitioner/therapist performs a visual exam, checking for  skin complexion, the color and texture of nails, sputum, and other such general conditions. The practitioner/therapist will have you fill out an intake form to list various symptoms.

Pulse
The Tibetan technique of pulse reading a practitioner glean clues as to which imbalances afflict a person. There are six distinct pulses at the radial artery of each wrist that correspond to the internal organs. We feel for such things as the width, depth, strength, speed and quality of the pulse. Each of those factors when understood properly allows insight into the imbalance.

Urinalysis
From a urine sample, the practitioner will glean additional information as to the possible nature of the imbalance, the presence of infection, and the localization of the imbalance amongst other things. This evaluation is based on ancient healing traditions.
