Chronobiology represents the rhythmic oscillation of life.

The therapist must concentrate his attention on the equilibrium-disequilibrium, order-disorder, action-reaction, linearity-chaos, harmony-disharmony, as activities observed during the examination of the EC at the pulses, in a “moment” of the flow of life.

Through this dialectic pattern it is possible to describe an infinite variety of existential phenomena, which are at the same time universal and specific to every individual.

At the examination of the EC at the pulses the therapist observes the harmonies and the disharmonies in the dynamics of the energetic network. When there are alterations inside the dynamic process, the therapist intervenes by helping the individual through this “existential passage” so that he can live within nature’s harmony.

The antique scriptures say:

CTM is at the service of the people: it enriches itself with the gifts it offers, ‘without acting’, in accord with nature’s order; it offers benefits and does not harm.

To the therapist’s attention come entire categories of patients with unavoidable pathological suffering within the body (women with gynaecological alterations, pregnancy, menopause, etc; men with sleep of digestive disorders etc.), or in the “spirit's soul”. Among the latter is worth considering the “immigrant” category. These patients live a double life: in the past, which transforms old memories in the flow of time; and in the present, which is lived as a deeply stressful reality; in an unreal and probably unrealizable future.

Tahar Ben Jelloun writes:

I am the one who is out of place: doctors […] have no remedy against exile, against loneliness ... It is necessary to say that our solitude is special, it is heavy, foreign […].

According to CTM, in the heart dwells the “spirit”: it is the Centre of emotions, which has a relational dynamicity towards the external world and also an introspective dynamism towards the internal one. Manifestations and signals (soggetto?) are the messengers of chaotic dynamics which cause a potentially deep disorganization of the conscience: it becomes very difficult to give a precise meaning to life, there is restlessness, a lack of conclusions, confusion, mental states dominated by unconscious, psychosomatic troubles.

In the Nei Tching (#361) it is said:

What are the ‘perversions’? Q.B. answers, "The individual's existence unfolds through alterations which lead to changes.

Alterations and changes are in contrast with each other: from which derives an evolution or an end, a sprint or a stop, depending on the dynamics. If this state becomes permanent structural changes will take place.

This is how the Nei Tching describes the effects of chaotic dynamics in a complex system.
