At Choojai Clinic, we adhere to the principles of Man Tam Yab, a Traditional Thai Medical Diagnosis method that emphasizes the balance of the body’s elements—Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire. This holistic approach is fundamental to understanding the root causes of health issues and guiding appropriate treatments.
Man Tam Yab involves a thorough assessment of a patient’s physical and emotional state. Our practitioners use various diagnostic techniques, including pulse diagnosis, tongue observation, and assessment of bodily fluids, to evaluate the condition of the elements within the body. The balance or imbalance of these elements provides insight into the patient’s overall health and specific ailments.
For instance, an imbalance in the Earth element might manifest as digestive disorders or musculoskeletal issues, while a disturbance in the Wind element could lead to respiratory problems or joint pain. The diagnosis process helps identify the dominant element causing discomfort or disease, allowing for a personalized treatment plan that may include herbal medicine, dietary adjustments, and specialized therapies.
By focusing on the whole person rather than just symptoms, Man Tam Yab enables our practitioners to provide treatments that not only address immediate concerns but also promote long-term health and well-being.
