Q They say tests can't find a clear cause. How does Korean medicine approach standing dizziness with no clear diagnosis?
A Rather than searching for a specific disease name, Korean medicine looks at where the balance of lifting circulation upward and keeping it steady has broken down when posture changes. This allows an approach tailored to the body's condition even when dizziness doesn't show up on tests.
Detailed Answer
Modern medical tests are strong at finding specific causes like heart disease or anemia, but often fail to reveal dizziness where only the autonomic nervous system's circulatory regulation has become disturbed without a clear disease. This is why "normal test results" and "real standing dizziness" can coexist.
Our Korean Medicine Clinic's Perspective
Korean medicine takes the body's state of balance, not a disease name, as its diagnostic unit. Through pulse diagnosis and consultation, we identify whether upward-lifting energy is insufficient, blood is scarce, or circulatory regulation has broken down somewhere, and correct that imbalance. This means there is room to intervene through restoring circulatory balance, even for standing dizziness whose cause tests cannot pinpoint.
