Nadi Pariksha
Nadi Pariksha is the ancient ayurvedic technique of diagnosis through the pulse. It can accurately diagnose physical, mental and emotional imbalances as well as diseases. It is a non- invasive science that enables to reach the root cause of health issues and not just address the symptoms.
Nadi Pariksha understands the vibratory frequency of the pulse at various levels on the Radial artery. Subtle vibrations are read at seven different levels vertically downward that help in ascertaining various functions in the body. The pulse, when examined, reveals both physical & mental characteristics of the patient. This is interpreted in the form of symptoms along with their prognosis, which helps in understanding the cause. Thus, Nadi Pariksha forms the basis for addressing any ailment in an individual.
The time tested and age-old natural way of healing has taught that any presence of disease in our system will be indicated as an imbalance in our ‘doshas’. The key to cure and keep our body in good health is to balance the doshas and bring back balance to the body system.
How is the pulse analysis conducted?
Pulse diagnosis or Nadi Pareeksha is done using the signals obtained from the three precise locations on the wrist at the radial artery using index, middle and ring fingers corresponding to Vata, Pitta and Kapha. The signals obtained from these locations are not only due to the contraction and relaxation of blood vessel but also a result of movement of blood through the artery. The doctor uses his experience and skill for accurate pulse reading. Any change in the nature of signal felt is a means of diagnosis of disease. The different waveforms obtained from vata, pitta and kapha nadi have shape similar to that of movement of snake, frog and swan.

How does the doctor diagnose disease using pulse diagnosis chart?
Our experienced and skilled doctor can diagnose a disease condition based on using pulse diagnosis chart. When there is a dosha imbalance in the body, a pulse can identify it. For instance a frog may be felt under index where actually a snake should be felt. This indicated that a frog is chasing cobra or simply pitta is blocking Vata dosha. This way, the doctor makes accurate analysis of dosha imbalance and upcoming diseases based on pulse analysis.
