Hi Chanalee!
Mostly it is an economy move. Dr. Lee was treating *all* the patients in a
large city in an underground setting - acupuncture was prohibited. Since
she was only one person, she had to make every second count. I have used
her "Great Ten" prescription as she used it, without any examination or
differentiation - it *does* work. That said, it is better to take more time
and get more focus.
