Thank you to AcuPro Academy for this wonderful facial map. Face Map in Chinese Medicine! There many renditions to face mapping in TCM! The most common ones are from the 2 classics Spiritual Axis and Simple Questions. I am sharing the one that I have found very useful over the years in my practice. Like the ear, the tongue, the belly, and the limbs, the face is a microsystem which reflects what’s going on internally in the body.... - The Heart areas: wrinkles or redness in these are may indicate high blood pressure. - The Liver area is located at Yin Tang for a good reason! Stress, irritability and anger will cause Yin Tang to b overloaded with years of frowning, causing wrinkles there. - The Kidneys health reflect under the eyes. Dark circles may indicate lack of sleep for years depleting the adrenals and causing the TCM KD to age faster! - The Spleen shows imbalances on the nose area. Pimples or black heads there, may indicate blood sugar issues or gut inflammation. - The Lung area on the lower cheek can reflect Lung deficiency when dryness and wrinkles are prominent. - The Small Intestine area: pimples on the forehead may indicate bacteria overgrowth, and absorption issues. - The Gallbladder areas at the corner of the eyes often have wrinkle lines and maybe a cause of indecision. - The Bladder area: pimples on the forehead may indicate lack of hydration. - The Stomach area on the cheek often will show redness and indicate ST Heat. - The Large Intestine at the corner of the mouth often maybe dry showing colon issues. - The reproductive system area (which connects to the TCM Kidneys) is located on the chin. Pimples and cystic acne here shows a reproductive hormone imbalance.
