By Archived User | Updated: Dec 31, 2021 | Published: Dec 31, 2021

I have been trying to find information on the theory of diagnosis when working on animals. Anybody knowing where to find info about how to make a tcm-diagnosis on horses and on dogs?

Sincerely,

kishintai

Generally with animals I use local/systemic points as a true tcm diagnosis is quite difficult to come by with the absence of communication. Additionally you are usually treating muscular-skeletal issues and/or anxiety problems which are relatively easy to treat with common points. You may want to look into our section for related texts that go deeper into the subject.

I will check the veterinary resources.
