Facial Analysis

Do you believe that each point on our face correlates to a corresponding organ and that we could observe clues of internal condition on the face?

For instance changes in facial skin color or texture; puffiness or tight drawn areas; swollen or sunken areas; the appearances of broken capillaries on the surface of the skin; lines, pimples, freckles, or other marks; all reflect changes in the function and structure of the related organs.

That's why the Chinese physicians always advocate this: To know the state of your health, you don't have to have expensive tests, nor a doctor. Just start by looking at yourself in the mirror. You don't even need to work on the facial skin, but rather you work on the corresponding organ and organ energy system.

I've heard one of my ex-colleagues mentioned this previously and I think it quite make sense since everytime I had gastric problem, that particular area on my face will always be dotted with pimples. Wanting to find out more and to find a cause for my recent outbreak, I spent some time on the Net to search for more info on this subject.

I'm no doc, don't know how accurate this is but I thought the following info is rather interesting and serves as a good reference for me.

Facial self diagnosis - Area analysis

Area A: The conditions of the mouth, lips, tongue, mouth cavity, and area around the mouth show the digestive functions as a whole. This area also relates partially to the respiratory function, especially at its peripheral area.

Area B: The condition of the forehead and its periphery, including the temples and eyebrows, represent the conditions of the nervous system as a whole.

Area C: The side facial areas, including both eyes, cheeks and ears, represent the conditions and functions of the circulatory and excretory systems as a whole.

Facial self diagnosis - A more detailed analysis



The following general correlations can be made between the internal organs and your face:

- Lungs and cheeks.

- Large intestines (colon) and the upper and more peripheral portion of the forehead, and the outer section of the lower lip, and below the eyes (directly below the kidney points)

- Heart and tip of the nose.

- Small intestine and the lower and more central portion of the forehead, and the inner section of the lower lip.

- Kidneys and the ears, and a circular area encompassing the region above and below the eyes.

- Bladder and the top portion of the forehead along the hair line.

- Spleen and pancreas and the portion of the nose closest to the head and the left eye. The spleen also correlates to the temples.

- Stomach and the central portion of the nose, and the upper lip.

- Duodenum and the outer corners of the mouth.

- Liver and the area of the forehead between the eyebrows, also the right eye.

- Gall bladder and the area between the end of the eyebrows and the sideburns.

- Sexual organs and the area encircling the mouth.
