If you have a imbalance between earth on water, why did you use ponts that had no corilation to earth or water, or tai yin or shao yin like Lu 7 Pc 6 etc?

Hello everyone!  Was wondering if anyone could provide any insight into these couple of cases I have.

Case 1    

17 yr male

CC fatigue, tired all the time.

He is a volunteer firefighter and has low back pain with difficulty concentrating in school.

He is anxious about finishing highschool and wants to leave to become a professional firefighter.

Has low daytime energy and states that he feels irritable at times.  Has regular diet for his age.  Regular  BM, sleeps 7-8 hours per day.

Pulse         Thready, weak 
Tongue.     pale, white coat

I used the elemental compass method and found that the dominant signal was earth in the proximal chi position.  I palpated K3 (earth point) and returned to check the pulse.  The pulse evened out.  I continued my treatment with: K6, LU 7, LV 3, ST 36, PC 6, SP 4 and Du 20. 

Patient reported that he felt more centered and calm following the treatment.  Would like to do a follow-up support treatment.

Case 2    

54 yr female

CC insomnia due to menopause, low back pain 

Patient stressed out after an extended business trip is waking up at 4am with night sweats and anxienty.
P. rapid and wiry
T. red

I used the night time wei qi cycle and found a block from water to fire (kidney to heart) 
I palpated the xi-cleft point of kidney (K5) and the pulse shifted.
I continued my treatment with: Ren 14, GB 25, HT 7, K 3, and PC 6.

Patient told me she slept more more soundly and that her night sweats pretty much went away.

 

I appreciate any input any of you might have.  Thank you.

Mary
