Ep63 - What Do You Treat First: EXCESS or DEFICIENCY?

Acupuncturists tend to focus on treating deficiency (or weaknesses) in their patients instead of excess. In this podcast, I describe the difference and break down the thinking of why you should focus on one versus the other. It is important for us to understand why an illness is taking place versus what exactly the patient presents with. Another idea that relates to this is treating the root cause rather than trying to “fix” the patient by tending to their current signs and symptoms. Try this new approach and let me know your results! I bet you’ll be surprised! Thank you for listening to The Justin Flinner Podcast!
