We reveal the ancient secrets behind the process of diagnosis that an acupuncturist uses: looking, listening, asking and feeling.

Did you know that an acupuncturist can tell what is going on in your body just by looking at your tongue? We take you through a description of different things you might see on the tongue - for example a red tip of the tongue indicates insomnia. Tongue diagnosis, plus feeling your pulse on both left and right side of your wrists, gives your acupuncturist a picture of what’s going on in your body and helps them choose what points to use. We reveal this complex diagnostic system for you.
