Schuessler Cell Salts: Facial diagnosis

  
One possibility to determine the right cell salts is to look for certain signs in the face.

This approach is called "face analysis" or "facial diagnosis".

The facial diagnosis is based on the idea, that the absence of certain minerals develops certain signs on the face, as for example the colouring of the face or the state and the vigour of the skin.

Kurt Hickethier, the developer of the face analysis

The face analysis was discovered by Dr. Schüssler and was developed by one of his followers: Kurt Hickethier.

Kurt Hickethier led a sanitarium in Ellrich in the Harz (Germany).

He wrote a book about the face analysis which is the standard work to the face analysis even today.

Hickethier thought the facial diagnosis is the best method to recognize an illness and the needed cell salts.

This contradicted even then the prevailing doctrine and also does not fit to the today's image of a diagnosis, because "diagnosis" is used in the modern usage to recognise a certain illness and to name.

To avoid conflicts with the usual usage of the word "diagnosis", nowadays one often speaks of "face analysis".

Nevertheless, the analysis of the face plays the most important role for the identification of the suitable mineral salts.

In the following list you can find the most important signs in the face to the respective mineral salts.
