Chinese Tongue

Chinese Tongue, often referred to in traditional Chinese medicine, is a diagnostic tool where practitioners examine the tongue's appearance—its color, coating, shape, and texture—to assess a person's health. It provides insights into the body's internal balance, such as organ health and energy levels, by highlighting areas of excess or deficiency. While widely used in TCM, it's complementary to other diagnostic methods and should be interpreted by trained professionals within a broader health assessment. The tongue's condition can reflect factors like digestion, hydration, and systemic inflammation, helping practitioners tailor individualized treatment plans.
