Discover your TCM body type
Traditional Chinese Medicine identifies 9 body constitutions. Knowing yours is the first step toward eating, moving, and living in a way that actually fits your body.
Body constitution theory
Your body is not generic. Your wellness should not be either.
In TCM, there is no one-size-fits-all. Every person has a unique constitutional makeup shaped by genetics, diet, habits, and environment. The Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire (CCMQ) measures nine body types — from Balanced to Qi Deficiency to Damp-Heat — each with its own set of strengths, vulnerabilities, and ideal foods. When you know your type, you stop guessing and start giving your body exactly what it needs.

What is your body type?
Rate each statement based on how often you experience it. Your answers map to the 9 TCM body constitutions. At the end, you will see your primary type with personalized food, lifestyle, and herbal recommendations.
The 9 types
Balanced, Qi Deficiency, Yang Deficiency, Yin Deficiency, Phlegm-Dampness, Damp-Heat, Blood Stasis, Qi Stagnation, and Special Intrinsic
Each constitution describes a pattern — not a diagnosis. Most people have one dominant type with traces of one or two others. The quiz identifies your strongest pattern so you can adjust your diet and daily habits accordingly. TCM practitioners have used this framework for over two thousand years. The CCMQ, developed by Professor Wang Qi, standardized it into a validated clinical tool now used in hospitals and research worldwide.
