This is probably due to the overwhelming majority of acupuncture schools teaching ONLY the TCM method of diagnosis, ie. Pulse\/Tongue.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Fratkin&#8217;s take on this:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>&#8220;When I returned to Meridian Therapy, after an interlude with TCM, I saw that patients got better in half as many treatments.\u00a0This was not due to discarding TCM; it was due to adding in MT. That is to say, I used Meridian Therapy as our root treatment, and added in TCM, or other modalities, as the branch treatment.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>&#8220;My experience with computerized meridian diagnosis is that it gives me diagnostic information that is more accurate and precise than pulse diagnosis.&#8221; <\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Let that sink in for a moment&#8230;.he goes on to say:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>&#8220;In addition to being more accurate and precise, computerized systems such as AcuGraph include software to make the most use of that diagnostic information.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>For me, computerized diagnosis is far superior to pulse diagnosis, showing all the variations of meridian imbalances as excess or deficiency.\u00a0<\/em><em>One can use the information as one wishes, whether it be using the software recommendations for detailed treatment, or even to focus on the primary patterns of Keiraku Chiryo.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>I have tremendous respect for AcuGraph as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. I believe it will facilitate and enhance acupuncture treatments.\u00a0<\/em><em>AcuGraph allows more patients to benefit from the very real healing offered by Meridian Therapy acupuncture.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Don&#8217;t miss Dr. Fratkins final blog post &#8211; coming next Tuesday!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">New to the AcuGraph?<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3>This video introduction will answer a number of questions you may have.<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acugraph.com\/demonstration\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-16631 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.miridiatech.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/CTA-for-video-300x45.png\" alt=\"CTA-for-video\" width=\"433\" height=\"65\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.miridiatech.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/CTA-for-video-300x45.png 300w, https:\/\/www.miridiatech.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/CTA-for-video-768x114.png 768w, https:\/\/www.miridiatech.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/CTA-for-video-660x98.png 660w, https:\/\/www.miridiatech.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/CTA-for-video.png 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 433px) 100vw, 433px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you been following Dr. Jake Fratkin&#8217;s guest articles?\u00a0 If&#8217; you&#8217;ve missed them, here are the links&#8230;click below and catch up!
