اسلاید 6: In Chinese medicine the strategy behind treatment is alleviating the acute symptoms as well as correcting the root energetic imbalance causing those symptoms. The symptoms of allergies are most often related to underlying disharmonies involving wei qi, or defensive energy, phlegm or dampness, and the lung, spleen, and kidney energy systemsConcept of “organ” is not confined to its anatomical structure,but more to do with all the functions ascribed to that organ by TCMViscera/organs theory(脏-inward property,象-outward presentation) Zang-viscera Fu-viscera (solid,Yin) (hollow,Yang) Lung Large intestine Heart Small intestine Liver Gallbladder Kidney Bladder Spleen Stomach Pericardium Triple warmer
اسلاید 7: TCM Lung PhysiologyGoverns Qi & Respiration Inhales “clear” Qi and Exhales “stale” Qi Stagnation of Lung Qi leads to cough and asthmaDominates Ascending & DescendingDistributes defensive (wie) Qi and body fluid to entire bodyHelps maintain normal descending function, while receiving the ascending water vapor from the kidneyControl the Body SurfaceDistributes body fluid to the tissues which in turn helps regulate skin moisture and sweatingProvides Wei QiOpens in the Nose Lung is a canopy over the other organs and very delicate and vulnerable Easily affected by pathogens (wind, heat, cold or dryness)
اسلاید 8: Wei Qi and Lung Qi(Lung’s function):In TCM, illness prevention begins with a protective layer around the exterior of the body called wei qi, or defensive energy. A strong and healthy wei qi is the bodys initial protection against all external pathogens. If the defensive energy is weak, wind pathogens“ will enter the body, so a combination of a wind-born pathogen and a deficiency of the protective wei qi is a recipe for illness. People with wei qi deficiency catch colds easily, and allergy symptoms may be particularly bad in the spring or fall seasons which are generally windy. Patients with seasonal allergies, chronic cough and/or recurrent colds and flu are also likely to have Lung deficiency, since wei qi and immune function are part of the lung energy. Lung qi controls the domain of skin, lungs, nose, sinuses, and respiratory passages.
اسلاید 9: TCM Spleen Physiology/function Governs Transportation & Transformation Distribution, digestion & absorption of nutrients and waterControls Blood Keeps blood in vessels & prevents extravasationDominates the Muscles Weakness, Muscle atrophy, EmaciationOpens in Mouth(lips and Gums) Chewing and appetite are related to Spleen functionPoor Spleen function, poor appetite
اسلاید 10: Spleen Qi: Behind every weak immune system is a deficiency of the spleen qi, part of the digestive system. It is the job of the spleen to make healthy qi from food. If the spleen qi is weak, it is not able to efficiently digest food and make a healthy quality of energy to distribute to all systems of the body. Spleen qi deficiency is usually accompanied by dampness; fluids fail to metabolize and often end up turning to excess phlegm and mucus. Spleen Qi weakness/vacuity with Dampness is a common underlying condition with allergy symptoms

اسلاید 12: Kidney Qi: Since kidney energy is the root of constitutional and all other energy systems in the body, it is usually related to imbalances involving deficiency. Especially when allergies, asthma, or frequent or chronic respiratory illness are problems since childhood, the kidney energy must be addressed. It is also important to note that kidney energy is damaged by long-term medication use
اسلاید 13: Knowing that Chinese Medicine treats the entire person and not just a condition, all of this information is crucial for finding an appropriate diagnosis. For symptoms of allergies these can be patterned, such as Lung Qi Deficiency, Kidney Qi Deficiency, Wind Cold, Wind Heat, etc. The important part of these names is that they allow you to tailor a treatment to each person which is why acupuncture, properly applied, can be so effective for allergies.
