Assignment of organs to pulse positions

[Guest guest]

Greetings All,

 

I was wondering what the general opinion on assignment of organs to

pulse positions is. In Giovannis’ newest book on diagnosis there’s a

small discussion on whether to assign ie the Small Intestine to the Cun

position on the left hand or to the Chi position or assigning the Kidney

to one hand and Ming Men to the other (How is the Kidneys and Ming Men

different anywho?). Giovanni mentions that there might be different

approaches to organ assignment depending on whether one is a herbalist

dealing with Nei Ke or acupuncturist dealing only with meridian

problems. How about acupuncturist dealing with Nei Ke?

 

Hope to get some input on this!

 

Best regards,

While in school I had a Japanese style trained teacher who used a

completely different approach to pulse positions. Deep Left Cun, Guan &

Qi respectively was Kidney, Spleen & Liver and right was Heart, Lung &

PC. Superficial where the matching Yin - Yang pairs. These positions

are symmetrical for Hand Shaoyin, Taiyin and Jueyin on the left and Foot

Jueyin, Taiyin and Shaoyin on the right. They are symmetrical for the

six stages of the meridians making them elegant to use. I often

diagnosed and treated based on these pulse positions with good results.

 

 

It always interested me how different systems of pulse taking could come

to very different conclusions about diagnosis and treatment, but by

staying within the context of one system, a practitioner could achieve

good results.

Been there and have the teashirt, Christopher!

 

For almost 30 years, I have believed that the TCM pulse positions are

no more than a mental construct, used intuitively to dowse / divine which

channel-organ system(s) to treat, and how (Xie for Shi and Bu for Xu).

 

In difficult cases, I use a pendulum to dowse for the same things, and

my pendulum reaction nearly always coincides with what I divine from

the 12 pulses in the more classical TCM locations:

Left Right

Deep Sup Sup Deep

Cun HT SI LI LU

Guan LV GB ST SP

Chi KI BL TH PC
