Use the generating cycle to explain how applying treatment to the Heart channel can help a client with pathology along the Spleen channel

What will be an ideal response?


A complete response should include these concepts:
• The generating cycle explains that there are supporting and generating relationships between the five elements and the corresponding organs.
o Fire generates Earth as ashes fall to the ground
• The Heart (Fire element) generates the Spleen (Earth element).
• The Spleen uses the blood and Qi circulated by the Heart to perform its function of digestion.
• Because the structure and function of each organ is dependent on the others, the channels associated with each organ can be used to influence the others.
• Treating the Heart channel will affect pathology along the Spleen channel because the heart nourishes and generates the spleen.
