Guest guest Posted March 15, 2003 Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 Interesting, where would you find a prostate pulse ? That is another 'organ' TCM 'ignores' BTW does anyone know the significance of a blood pressure reading higher on one side than the other. In this case both systole and diastole are both 10 points higher on the left side. This seems to make the left pulse positions stronger all round compared to the right positions. How should this be interpreted in terms of TCM? Cheers, Sammy.

That is another 'organ' TCM 'ignores'>>> The pulse of the prostate or uterus is usually found under the kidney at the beginning of the Endocrine level of the left Proximal position. The prostate energetically responds to the bladder, kidney, and scrotum because it is at the focus of most of the meridian activity in the lower jiao. If stress is coming to the lower jiao from the liver or another organ, then the prostate usually is a target. When the prostate problem also involves the bladder, the pulse may be found at the dividing the position between the bladder and the kidney. For similar pulses you should read my article, " Organs and Their Associated Pulses. " > BTW does anyone know the significance of a blood pressure reading higher on one side than the other. In this case both systole and diastole are both 10 points higher on the left side. This seems to make the left pulse positions stronger all round compared to the right positions. How should this be interpreted in terms of TCM? >>> Consider it wind movement hitting the left side. In order to figure out what is happening you need to say more than just they are stronger. You should determine what type of qualities are also on the left side and where they are found in the positions. Don't take one thing out of context.

That is another 'organ' > TCM 'ignores' I don't believe TCM recognizes a pancreas. Many of the functions of the pancreas are attributed to the Spleen. I believe the prostate would be considered part of the Kidney system. > BTW does anyone know the significance of a blood pressure reading higher on > one side than the other.

How should this be interpreted in terms of TCM? I would suspect Stagnation and/or Stasis, and check to see if there were indications of either or both of these. I believe there may be some spinal misalignment problems that can result in this. (Maybe some of the chiropractors on the list know more about this.) I'm not sure " stronger " would be the best word to describe what is happening to the pulse on the left side. Victoria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2003 Report Share Posted March 17, 2003 I would check prostate function by checking the urinary bladder test areas and pulse. There is a link to the stomach and liver points in the leg. Abdomen liver and urinary bladder points? Kidney point on bottom of foot #1 marcos lacerda <ishk18 wrote:--- ga.bates escreveu: > >Interesting, where would you find a prostate pulse ?
