Book Description

For many centuries, practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine have relied on face reading for insight into the physical, psychological, and emotional state of a patient. Based on an understanding of the shapes, markings and features of a face, a therapist can discover important facts about the health and life of a patient, related to the principles of Chinese medicine. In addition to understanding how the body's internal functions can be seen on a face, readers will also learn to evaluate non-verbal expressions and assess personality from features and markings of the patient's face.
  • Clear discussions demonstrate how this technique can be used as a supplement to other diagnostic tools in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
  • Engaging, insightful, highly readable text is written by a well-known and experienced lecturer in the field.
  • Extensive illustrations give you a clear understanding of theories and techniques.
  • A focus on the deeper aspects of face reading and diagnosis helps readers become more conscious of their actions, reactions, and the health consequences of behavior.

    Editorial Reviews

    Review

    'This lovely book is clearly written by someone who has been immersed in reading faces all her life and who spent twenty years before writing it, studying further from Chinese medical and other texts and from family members. It clearly lays out all the theories and principles of face reading, mostly relating to understanding personality ( but also in a final chapter to medical diagnosis) and illustrates these with numerous black and white and colour photographs.

    This is simply the best book on face reading that we have seen, and if the subject fascinates you, you just have to get it.'

    Peter Deadman, Journal of Chinese Medicine

    5.0 out of 5 stars the real expert, March 5, 2008
    This review is from: Face Reading in Chinese Medicine, 1e (Paperback)
    I have read most books on face reading and this book immediately shows the real wealth of knowledge and sensibility of the author. A lot of people take a seminar and write a book, this is just the opposite. The author shows experience and an open heart, I know she is the teacher to a lot of face readers like Jean Hanner so If you want to know the real source for a lot of what is out there this is a most and Lillian is the best.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating, September 14, 2008
    This review is from: Face Reading in Chinese Medicine, 1e (Paperback)
    This book is full of fascinating information about reading the lines, bumps, and configurations of the face. It is based on ancient Chinese tradition and will intrigue you enough to get out your mirror. Putting it into practice will require re-reading the book but you will never again look at someone's face the same way. Amazing!

    This review is from: Face Reading in Chinese Medicine, 1e (Paperback)
    The art of face reading has always intrigued me and Lillian Bridges is truly an expert in this field! The book is very easy to read and understand - and accurate from my own experience. Lillian Bridges has taught those of us in the field of Chinese Medicine for many years. I am very happy that her work has finally made it into book form. I highly recommend it, you will find it astounding!
