TCM and Facial Zoning


From Greek medicine to Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), facial analysis has been used as an indication of the health of the organs or to provide useful clues as to the systems involved in any health issue.
 In particular TCM has a detailed map of the face including lines, organ zones and color indications. Using TCM facial analysis principles with relation to skin conditions, the map and colors of the face can help indicate the underlying causes and support the choice of treatment.

Skin conditions that affect the face such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea and acne don’t usually affect the entire surface of the face. 
The affected areas are often confined to particular areas or zones so just by looking at your face you can find out more about the underlying cause of any skin condition. 
This technique is not confined to skin conditions. 
It can also be used as a tool to assess wellbeing or to improve skin tone in general.
