#66 Pulse Diagnosis - The Incredible Ability to Detect Imbalances in the Body

In this episode, Dr. Marianne Teitelbaum reveals all the mysteries of ayurvedic pulse diagnosis. In Western medicine, the pulse of a patient is assessed to obtain two pieces of information: its rate or speed and its evenness or regularity. But in Ayurveda, it is a full health diagnosis that assesses the whole physiology, and it can detect the imbalances of the three doshas (vata, pitta, and kapha), the clogging of the physical and vibrational channels (shrotas and nadis), the accumulation of toxins, and even some spiritual qualities of the examined patient.
