What's Your Chinese Diagnosis?
In order to discover your imbalances according to Chinese medicine, we need to root around in, well – all aspects of you, really! Use the following quiz to discover how you tick in Chinese medicine. Once armed with your “imbalances”, we can then begin to look at ways to help you be as healthy as you can be.
Remember that Chinese medicine is subtle, finding disharmony where Western medicine wouldn’t yet, so don’t be dismayed if you come out with three or four different diagnoses. Chinese medicine’s ability to find the patterns that lead to disease makes it a powerful preventative medicine tool. And when you catch something early, it is easier to treat and often responds to changing your food choices.
First let's look at what element you are with our Five Elements quiz.

While learning about the Five Elements is fun and informative, if you want to go deeper into Chinese medicine diagnosis, you can start looking at Zang Fu diagnosis.
Zang Fu diagnosis is what most acupuncturists learn in school in modern times. Since the Cultural Revolution, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been dominated by the Zang Fu method of diagnosis.
