NADI PARIKSHA – PULSE DIAGNOSIS

In Ayurveda we feel the rhythm of the pulse. Vata is erratic and feels like the slithering of a snake. Pitta has a regular throb and feels like a frog hopping. Kapha pulse is regular and smooth and feels like a swan gliding in the water. There are different levels of the pulse and the 2 basic levels are the superficial feel (light touch) which reveals the vikruti (imbalance) and the deep pulse (heavier pressure) which shows the prakruti (constitution person is born with) #ayurveda #pulse #nadipariksha #vata #pitta #kapha
