In this episode, Jonathan Chang and Jason Robertson describe a common point pairing strategy used by Dr. Wang. Namely, what might be done when a presenting pattern fails to fit perfectly into categories of 'excess' or 'deficiency'. In these situations, more of a 'regulating' treatment is called for where the channels and organs are cleared without depleting. This discussion provides a broad overview of how these patterns might look in each of the six channels. In addition, some guidelines for creating innovative point combinations are described.
