🌿 Understanding the Eight Principles in TCM
At Tranquility, we use the Eight Principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine to assess imbalances and guide treatment. This diagnostic system helps us understand where the disharmony lies and what kind of pattern we’re working with.
🌿 Yin & Yang – The foundation of all balance. Yin is cool, calm, and nourishing. Yang is warm, active, and energizing.
🌿 Hot & Cold – Is your system running too hot (inflammation, irritability) or too cold (sluggish digestion, fatigue)?
🌿 Internal & External – Are symptoms coming from deep within (like insomnia or hormonal imbalance) or due to external factors (like a cold or seasonal allergies)?
🌿 Excess & Deficiency – Is there too much of something—like Dampness, Liver Fire, or food stagnation—or is the body lacking vital substances like Qi, Blood, or Yin?
✨ Identifying your pattern helps us create a targeted plan using acupuncture, herbal medicine, and lifestyle support to bring you back into balance.
Let’s restore your balance from the root. 💚
