Isolate the things or names and the actions they do using plain English.

Imagine you are speaking with the patient and want to discuss how your acu-therapy treatment can assist in treating the patient’s diabetes symptom of pain and burning sensation in the lower part of the body (numbness, and tingling in the toes and feet).

Traditional Eastern terms: The upper and lower jaio is disconnected and out of balance due to middle jaio imbalance. This imbalance is producing phlegm and exacerbating qi and blood stagnation.

Plain English: The transmission of nutrition to the body is out of balance because the gut biome messaging system is incomplete. The messaging is too strong (or excessive) or it is too weak (not moving enough) in one area and too much in another.


Here is another example. Think about this when speaking to the patient and try it again. Isolate the naming words and the action words.

Traditional eastern terms: There may also be a manifestation of liver qi stagnation causing the pain in your feet. This is a common imbalance in long term liver and kidney yin deficiency. 

Plain English: The peripheral neuropathy (or the pain in your feet) is due to reduced blood oxygen content. We’ll want to strengthen the legs to help increase blood and energy circulation.
