Re: Another reason to drink alot of water - my problem

,

Combinations of lower back problems, knee problems, low energy, teeth

problems, hearing problems and a multitude more are symptoms of " Kidney "

imbalance by traditional Chinese medical theory.

Kit,

was this where your question was going?

Books explaining TCM theory usually capitalize the _K_ in kidney when

they are referring to beyond just the kidney as an organ. Its not quite

the same as just something weird happening with the kidney organ.

Should you drink tons of water to correct the matter?

In theory TCM tends not to do heroics. If there was something going

on with a person's Kidney energy they'd probably try to rectify it before

taking a chance of over stressing it.

An assessment of what is going on would be a lot more than reviewing

the symptoms.

Symptoms are a " branch " . They'd want to treat it at the " root " , the

energetic etiology.

This is why acupuncturist/herbalists start with 3 to 4 years of post

graduate study and a Doctor of Oriental Med. is much more.
