Dien Chan... Facial Reflexology in just 5-10 minutes?

2/5/2017

Cybertherapy or Facial Reflexology – Does it really work?

In one word – Absolutely ( and fast!) 
A fascinating new treatment therapy developed by the now famous Dr Bui Quoc Chau from Southern Vietnam, outside Ho Chi Minh city, Facial Reflexology, locally known as Dien Chan is an incredible new treatment method discovered in the early 1980’ by accident - when treating the epidemic of Opium addicted people, from the aftermath of the Vietnam War or American War (as known locally).
​
According to lengthy clinical experience, the past, the present and the future weaknesses are all written in our faces. Those of you who are trained in the special art of Face reading in TCM diagnostics, particularly with the well-renowned Lillian Bridges and the inspiring Deirdre Courtney, will understand the importance of this diagnostic tool.

EVERY FACE  SHOWS ILLNESSES that you have suffered in your past, in fact even the mental state can be reflected in your face – this is invaluable in our diagnostic procedure. As many of us know many disorders have their origin in the internal imbalance of the viscera.

Originating from Vietnam, Dien Chan is fast becoming a home treatment practiced by many local people to banish pain and sickness very quickly.

"First discovered by accident following the Opium addiction epidemic left after the Vietnam War."
​I first discovered this method by the now infamous Dien Chan Dr of the North, Dr Thao – who also studied under its founder Dr Bui  Quoc Chau.

​Dr Thao is a doctor of both allopathic and Eastern medicine, but in his busy clinic located just outside Hanoi city he now practices solely using Dien Chan and sees between 50-60 patients a day!
Perhaps Dien Chan can help you achieve the high clinical turnover whilst gaining amazing clinical results, whilst also acquiring more free time each day?

IMAGINE seeing 50-60 patients a day – yet finished by lunchtime?​


Only 5-10 minutes per treatment you ask?

YES, each treatment with Dien Chan lasts approximately       5-10 minutes – a MAXIMUM of 15!

​Yes you heard that right, the same as the average length of time you get with your local Dr or GP in the West, but with Dien Chan you get drug-free and hence no side-effects...

In just 1-treatment - but do the effects last?

YES, sometimes just 1 treatment is necessary - HOWEVER it usually requires more than one treatment and the treatments close together, for the best and quickest long-term results. If we are dealing with pain, we aim for an 80% reduction in the 1st treatment; this may mean using our tools upon different areas of the body using a selection of different tools, with a yin or a yang effect.
​
Several areas may be treated within the short timeframe. Ideally we do not aim for a 100% symptom relief, as this can trigger a healing crisis or a reverse effect -  resulting in an exasperation of symptom occurrence.

We treat until there is full symptom clearance, and for a short time after to ensure longterm results.
With Dien Chan we can also give the power of health back to the patient.
​

- By simply by showing our patients how to use this therapy effectively (if recurrence of symptoms occur) both on themselves and on their loved ones in the comfort of their own home!

This method is being practiced by more than 500,000 people in Vietnam today - At almost zero cost within the poorer communities.


Is this related to acupuncture and channel theory?

NO, Dien Chan actually works using the microcosm principle, where the pain or diseased part of the body is treated using an image of the area placed upon another location in the body.

How does it work?

The fundamental principle is to rebalance the body’s energy or Qi – to naturally provoke our body’s own self-regulation or self-healing.

​
We focus on Reflex points acting like a transmitter, receiving data of imbalances for the corresponding organ area. We simply seek the point(s) that can help regulate the specific area through quick and painless treatments.
 
All points we use in Dien Chan are connected to the area of the brain that corresponds to the organ or body area that is unwell, inflamed, or painful – NOTE: the points are not actually connected directly to the areas themselves.
 
Practitioners of Dien Chan simply stimulate this area, creating or activating a process called:

- AUTO-REGULATION of the corresponding organ in that area. Hence why a zone can be sensitive, even when a limb has been amputated, etc, therefore Dien Chan is a very effective treatment in phantom limb pain.
 
It is about selecting the perfect zone, the correct area along with the technique (there are 7 in total) and of course using the correct tool(s) – this is very important, as the material the tool is made of has a huge impact on the pathology you are treating.

What does it treat?

It treats many, many problems – but it is particularly effective in:
​
  1. Nervous system disorders.
  2. Circulatory system issues,
  3. Endocrine diseases.
  4. Joint / muscular problems,
  5. Infections
  6. Inflammation.
 
It does not treat the most serious of diseases, including terminal cases.

Facial Reflexology is something interesting nowadays. They believe that our face experiences stress and needs to be cured. I would like to try this new treatment. It is new but I think this is better. Thank you for sharing facts about this new trend. Looking forward for more.
