The document discusses the Dien Chan method of facial reflexology created by Professor Bùi Quốc Châu and the work done by the International School of Multireflexology - Dien Chan to teach and promote the technique.

Dien Chan is a method of facial reflexology established by Professor Bùi Quốc Châu in 1980. It deals with the various pressure points on the face which are different from those already known in acupuncture.

Yang tools help activate microcirculation, stimulate self-regulation and produce revitalizing, heating and drying effects. Yin tools are used to calm, cool, hydrate and relax the body.

The purpose of this book is to give people the chance to study Dien Chan.
The book includes a number of diagrams and a complete map of
pressure points plus detailed advice on how to use the method tools. It
also includes an explanation of Dien Chan theory.
The book provides illustrations of the various treatments to help you
treat yourself, your family and friends. As therapists, we strongly
recommend that you follow the course with a certified teacher and
learn the movements and stimulation techniques (which are not
always easy to describe in written form).
A good therapist or teacher is not always easy to find. However by
reading a great deal and making inquiries in your local community,
you should be able to locate one. A good therapist or teacher must be
able to explain, in detail, the reason for using each of the BQC·points, the
meaning of the diagrams and how to design treatments.
An easy reference source of treatments with illustrations will help you to
start treating yourself, your family and friends.

WHAT IS DIEN CHAN

The study of the human face is not recent


in society with a medicine of long tradition
because the face is given certain impor-
tance in comparison to the rest of the body.
Feeling, psychological and physiological be-
havior as well as the body conditions can
be indeed perceived in the face. It could be
seen as the reverse of the brain, which is
the most powerful organ in our body.

2: What is Dien Chan • p.10

T he face, with its vast network of blood vessels,


nerves and acupuncture meridians, is a highly
sensitive part of the body.
Oriental medicine considers the face to be the focus
of yang energy. Older methods of treatment
position several acupuncture points on the face and
use these to treat certain diseases. Later Chinese
documents show the development of facial
acupuncture to the stage at which there were
twenty-four points used to treat disease. However,
in practice you are not limited to these twenty-four
points.
Dien  Chan therapy is different from acupuncture.
Instead of using meridians, it relies on a
multireflexology system comprising 100 reflex
points, 20 of which are found on the face. Ancient
and modern medical methods (including
acupuncture and clinical experience) have detected
close links between parts of the face and
corresponding areas of the body. Certain conditions
can thus be diagnosed and a system drawn up to
show these links.

Note on terminology

It is essential, when it comes to a new invention or discovery, to be able to


explain and communicate new concepts. To help the reader understand the
terms used in this book, some definitions follow.
Initially, Professor Bùi Quốc Châu called his discovery:

Diện Chẩn – Điều Khiển Liệu Pháp


which literally means “Facial Diagnosis and Cybernetic Therapy”. The literal
translation of the Vietnamese concept into English is “face diagnosis-
cybernetic therapy”.
Shorter versions of this are used in the west; names such as “Facythérapie”;
“Facialthérapie”; “Facioterapia”; “Vinamassage” or even “Dien  Chan”.
Another name “Dien Cham” (acupuncture of the face) is a misrepresentation,
because it is not based on the correct methods. “Cybertherapy” has recently
been used to define this discipline and includes both treatments: that of the
face and of the rest of the body.

NOTE Nº3
(Note on terminology)
When first writing about his discovery, Professor
Bùi Quốc Châu used the concept “reflexology
multisystem”, but the term “multireflexology” is
better for expressing both meanings of the concept.
First, it involves a multifaceted (mathematical)
correspondence with the organ reflex in a body; and
second, a multiple reflex (as in geometrical optics)
that involves a correspondence with two or more
reflex points of an organ.
The concept of the “living point” (“sinh huyêt” in
Vietnamese) is used instead of “reflex point” (“dinh
huyêt” - fixed point - in Vietnamese) each time the
reflex point becomes hypersensitive due to a reflex
organ condition. The coordinates of this living point
are slightly different from those of the coordinates
of the fixed point, i.e. the BQC·point.
Sometimes, the living point is incorrectly referred
to the as “painful point” although, in fact, it causes
pain only in certain situations.
First book published by Pr. Bùi Quôc Châu 

in 1984 in Saigon Vietnam.

(Note on terminology)

BQC·points
These are the fixed points on the face that Professor Bùi Quốc Châu
discovered and which form the basis of Dien  Chan. The map shows both
vertical and horizontal axes, which allows for precise coordinates.

These BQC·points are used in numerous treatment formulæ and have been
numbered in chronological order, according to the date they were
discovered.
At the start of his search, Professor Bùi Quốc Châu gave each point a
Vietnamese name relating to its effects. However, the large number of points
soon made this system unmanageable. Professor Châu then decided to
number the points, thus achieving a more international system. A few
numbers have been omitted, because the points to which they referred were
less important than others.
In this book, you will find a complete map of all the BQC·points along with a
list of effects, indications and contraindications of many of them.

The Dien Chan map


Each line on the Dien  Chan map depends on the anatomy common to all
faces. It is important that you learn to read the map correctly if you are to
carry out a treatment. Before proceeding with treatment, find the right lines
on the face and the appropriate BQC·point by reading the coordinates
Activating pain points is also part of Dien  Chan and consists in stimulating
the reflex zones pertaining to a particular diagram. If you want to use the
BQC·points formula, with its inherent strengths, you must able to read and
use the official map.
Imagine a head submerged in water. Lines on the surface of the water show
the shape of the face in relief. All the lines are horizontal except ‘0’ which
follows the root of the scalp. On the map, Roman numerals (I, II, III, IV…)
refer to horizontal lines, and Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, 4…) are used down the
side to facilitate the use of the coordinates page.
For example, the vertical line ‘G’ transects the centre of the pupil of the eye,
while the vertical line ‘B’ transects the centre of the nostril, irrespective of
the size of the nose. Lines ‘H’ and ‘E’ are the external and internal vertical
tangents of the iris.

Reverse effect
Depending on the patient’s condition, the length
and intensity of treatment per reflex point may
vary. If certain limits are exceeded, effectiveness
may be neutralized. This principle also applies to
acupuncture, in which the amount of time a
needle is in use is crucial. Applying a needle for
more or less time than is required may alter the Point nº26
results of treatment. The frequency of treatment is
also a key factor. In Dien  Chan therapy, limits
should not be exceeded given that over-
stimulation of points may undo its effects and
cause pain relief to be neutralized. It is essential to
communicate with the patient and to know when Point nº19
to stop treatment.

Symmetries
Some reflex points are symmetrically placed.
There are three core points on the face: vertical
‘O’, horizontal ‘V’ and horizontal ‘IV’ (see map of face
points).There are also two symmetry core points:
points nº26 and nº19. The symmetric reflex
points corresponding to those core lines are both
synergic and opposite. Not all BQC·points have the
same numbering (see core line 26/19).

particular organs that are not

of internal organs on the face,
you can establish that (for exam-
ple) point nº50 (the liver) is sym-
metrical to point nº70 (the stom-
ach).

Communicating
vessels
There is a relationship between therapist
and patient that is based on communicating
vessels. This is more common in natural
therapies than in those using medicines. If the
therapist is more depressed than the patient, he
risks catching the illness. This phenomenon has
been observed, for example, in cases of migraine.
This is why the therapist has to be in good spirits.

Affinity and hostility


The concepts of affinity and hostility refer to the
relationship between active reflex points or
between a fixed point and a certain illness.

For example, points nº26 and nº6 are hostile to
each other and cannot be used together or the
effects will be neutralized. Points nº34 and nº124,
however, show affinity. If you use both of them at
the same time, treatment will be more effective.

principles based on the treatment of a common
disorder, an aching right elbow, with the
introduction of techniques and tools. Constant
communication between patient and therapist is
essential and will help you remember each of the
principles and know when to stop treatment (as
soon as the objective has been achieved).

Local principle
You can work on the painful zone using several
different Dien  Chan tools. A simple massage,

A few tips on the use of multireflex tools


Usually, you should ask the patient to wash her face before treatment starts, although
there may be cases when a female patient does not want you to disturb her makeup.
If the skin is very dry, you might consider using natural oils in
your treatment. Take care if a rash, eczema or psoriasis is
present, especially if you are not experienced in dealing
with skin problems. If you cannot work on the face,
remember the scalp diagram.
The scalp is easy to reach and patients derive a number of
benefits from its treatment.

Taking care of the tools


To keep the tools clean, wash them with water and soap or a
mild alcohol solution. This will prevent infection and the
spreading of illness.
A copper tool may lose its shine with use but you can
restore it by rinsing it in lemon juice. Horn is natural, so be
careful with strong alcohol solutions and hot liquids. Using
warm water and soap is usually sufficient.

Rakes are considered to be yin tools and are used
for treating migraine, insomnia, sciatica and hair

calms migraine when used with a gentle
downward massage around the temples.
To produce relaxation after stress, raking the

DETECTORS (Nº101 & 133)

A detector is a basic Dien  Chan tool, used to


identify and stimulate points on the face. The
thick detector is used to treat patients with
weakened skin or those sensitive to pain caused by
the thin detector. It may also be used to massage
the affected area directly. Communication with
the patient must be on-going in order to gauge the
amount of pressure to be applied in each case.
A triple detector is used in the “six zones protocol”
when we need stimulation to be yin in character.
This is because massage with the big detector is
mainly yang.
Detectors with a spring may be found in
specialized shops. However, these are not
recommended in Dien Chan treatment, as they do
not allow for accurate measurement of the applied
pressure.

HAMMERS (TOOLS Nº128 & 430)


The large hammer nº430 has both a yin part (the
pad) and a yang part (rubber spikes). It is used to
treat joint pain, sciatica, spinal fatigue and muscle
conditions. Moreover, tapping the affected area
for three minutes works on the feet, hands and
shoulders and is really useful for tight back
muscles.
The small hammer also has two sides, yin and
yang, and is used to complement the detector
when stimulating points.

the manufacturer) and is excellent for stimulating
points on the face.

multireflexology.com
7: Multireflexology Tools • p.51

The small hammer may be used to stimulate for longer than the
detector (1 minute per point).
Very good results can be achieved by using the small hammer
to stimulate points where heat patches have already been
applied. This tool is especially useful to treat tingling in the
arms, throat inflammation, and ear, nose and throat (ENT)
disorders.
The small hammer is ideal for relaxing the nervous system,
the trapezius muscle and the shoulders (working on the
reflex zone of the eyebrows). It is very practical for
gently tapping reflex zones on the forehead or cranium.
Gently tapping the temples with the spikes of the small
hammer (nº128) works in treating migraine and
headaches.

DIEN CHAN IS
MULTIREFLEXOLOGY

Dien Chan is a technique, a multireflexologic method.


That means that we cannot pretend to cure all dis-
eases. The fundamental principle is to re-balance the
body and provoke our auto-regulation natural process.
More we study about human body and other tech-
niques, better results we will obtain. Dien Chan is an
excellent way to take the reins of our health for pro-
fane and an amazing vector to combine our knowl-
edges for professionals.

acupuncture meridians enables you to
diagnose and treat conditions depending
on the sensitivity of facial BQC·points. This is the

Like acupuncture meridians, the circulatory

network. In contrast, connections in the
Dien  Chan method are more akin to those in a
mobile phone network.
Each time you stimulate a BQC·point in a reflex

send information directly to the brain. The brain
is responsible for the self-regulation of the

MICRO-SYSTEMS

Thanks to many clinical studies and the 8 prin-


ciples of Dien Chan, professor Bùi Quôc Châu
and his therapist students have created this list
of reflex micro-systems. All multireflex tools
can be used in these micro-systems in order to
obtain the expected results.

massages
Dien Chan every day

The 12 facial massages become really useful to maintain health and youth,
to prevent illnesses and to generally reinforce tonicity. Practicing those
massages in the morning help us maintain a preventive attitude and a life
philosophy based on self-regulation. Many of these massages are also used
in Tai Chi and other oriental techniques but Dien Chan gives meaning to
those massages by explaining their actions and effects based on reflex
sketches. The experience of professor Bùi Quốc Châu’s students, patients
and all students has helped him to present them in a logical order.
1. Heat your hands by rubbing them together for
several seconds and then place them over your eyes.
This clarifies the vision and works on your ovaries
and testicles.

2. With your two middle fingers, massage your face in


circular movements from the tip of your nose
towards your eyebrows and around the eyes. Then
tap your skin with your hands in the same way as
when massaging. This corresponds to a massage in
the vagina. Other benefits include treating visual
problems, treating impotence and prolapsed
uterus, and preventing rhinitis and sinusitis.

3. Massage your face with your palms in circular


movements from the chin to the forehead but
without touching your nose. This warms and
relaxes your body. It is good for the skin and treats
fatigue.

5: 12 massages • p.65
4. Place your palm on your face with your forefinger
under your nose (pointing your thumb upward) and
give a horizontal massage. This warms your body
and massages your internal organs. It stimulates
your endocrine, digestive and reproductive
systems.
5. With your fingers from both hands rub your face
from the tip of your nose towards your hairline. You
should always finish the massage on the top part of
your face to prevent erection problems. It
corresponds to a massage along your backbone
and legs. It is beneficial to your reproductive
system.

6. Strongly massage your forehead in a horizontal


direction, first with your right hand and then with
the left. This corresponds to a massage of your
back and internal organs. It works on wrinkles,
relaxes your nervous system and stimulates your
brain and memory.

Dien Chan protocols
Dien Chan reflex-drainage

The six zones protocol is a Dien  Chan massage


based on the manual lymphatic drainage.

We like to call it the reflex-drainage protocol
but Pr. Bùi Quốc Châu always prefers easier
terminology to remember.
This protocol is extremely […] .
Reflex-drainage
It is important to understand that this
protocol is inspired by and designed to follow
the steps of manual lymphatic drainage. But,
instead of touching the body, you are working
on the face, i.e., on the reflex of the body in
the face. The contraindications of manual
lymph drainage are thus avoided.
The lymphatic system is responsible for
eliminating toxins and maintaining the
immune system. The lymphatic circulation is
linked to blood circulation. However – unlike
blood circulation – the lymph only moves in
one direction: from organs to the heart. The
lymphatic system works as a cleansing and
purifying machine and protects and defends

6: Reflex-drainage • p.68
the body. Its effect is noticeable on the skin
because it activates circulation and improves
microcirculation by preventing liquid
retention.
The lymph is a milky liquid, rich in white
blood cells that work against infection. It
circulates through a network of conduits and
finally reaches the bloodstream. It releases
oxygen and nutrients and enables residual
metabolic activity.
Most reflex therapies improve irrigation and increase
the amount of oxygen and nutrients delivered to the
area treated.

The six-zones massage


Good results have been obtained when giving this
massage on the patient’s face. Reflex-drainage is based
on the extremities reflex diagram (red man on the
face) and consists of six steps. The lymph nodes are
strategically located along with the lymph vessels.
Each reflex zone is massaged about 30 times, twice per
day (or up to four times if necessary).
You can give this massage with your fingers but better
results are obtained when using the thick detector
(tool n°133) or the smooth sphere of detector n°101

(be careful with non-natural horn spheres that can
burn the skin).
The reflex-drainage system is very similar to that of
natural lymphatic drainage (NLD). It is important to
massage in both directions to avoid hyper- or
hypotension.
These massages work upon reflex zones without
causing lymphatic collapse because they work sonly

T he BQC·points listed here correspond to an organ or part of the body (i.e. these are not formulas or
treatments). These points are found in the Dien Chan reflex diagrams. Their effects and indications have
been tested by Professor Bùi Quốc Châu, by his team of therapists, and by all our students in Europe
during the last ten years.
BQC·points in bold are considered the most important in the body zone concerned. The symbol (-) next to
the number of a point means yin (left side of the patient) and the symbol (+) means yang (right side of the
patient). Qi refers to the type of energy surrounding a body.

ALEXIS CARREL

Man, The Unknown (1935)


In 1935, Carrel published a book titled —L'Homme, cet inconnu—
(Man, The Unknown), which became a best-seller. The book
discussed “the nature of society in light of discoveries in biology,
physics, and medicine”. It contained his own social prescriptions,
advocating, in part, that mankind could better itself by following
the guidance of an elite group of intellectuals, and by implementing
a regime of enforced eugenics. Carrel claimed the existence of a
“hereditary biological aristocracy” and argued that “deviant” human
types should be suppressed using techniques similar to those later
employed by the Nazis.

BETEL LEAF

Betel leaf is mostly consumed in


Asia and cultivated in most of
South and Southeast Asia.
Since it is a creeper, it needs
a compatible tree or a long
pole for support.
The betel (Piper betle) is
the leaf of a vine belonging
to the Piperaceæ family,
which includes pepper and
kava. It is valued both as a
mild stimulant and for its
medicinal properties.
The betel plant is an evergreen and
perennial creeper, with glossy heart-

Chapter 1 - Introduction
CORIANDER

Coriander (Coriandrum sativum),


also known as cilantro, Chinese
parsley or dhania, is an annual
herb in the family Apiaceae.
Coriander is native to
regions spanning from
southern Europe and North
Africa to southwestern Asia.
It is a soft, hairless plant
growing to 50 cm (20 in) tall.
The leaves are variable in
shape, broadly lobed at the base
of the plant, and slender and
feathery higher on the flowering
stems. The flowers are borne in small
umbels, white or very pale pink,
asymmetrical, with the petals pointing away from the centre of the
umbel longer (5–6  mm) than those pointing towards it (only 1–
3 mm long). The fruit is a globular, dry schizocarp 3–5 mm (0.12–
0.20 in) in diameter.
Cilantro, the frilly, verdant leaves of the coriander plant, tends to
evoke Shakespearean-level passions. For everyone who can't get
enough of its bright, insouciant flavor, there's a naysayer who
accuses it of tasting like soap. This pungent herb is so polarizing, in
fact, that we're quite sure it's been listed under "irreconcilable
differences" in more than one divorce suit. Even the name can be
confusing: Elsewhere in the English-speaking world, cilantro is
known as fresh coriander, not to be confused with the plant's
astringent seeds, a spice in their own right.

ENDONASAL REFLEXOTHERAPY

Bonnier, Otolaryngologist of
recognized prestige, was the first
doctor who raised the possibility
of a global representation of
the body to level of the nasal
zones. In 1911, he announced
his works. The nasopunture
consists of stimulating points
on the surface of the nose with
the aim to clear the respiratory
tract.
Quite the same approach as facial
reflexology but the stimulation is
with soft to hard thin steel sticks which
are gently inserted the nose. The
stimulations are usually very short and for this reason it is a
complement to other therapies.

Chinese book. The I Ching and
its hexagrams were thought to
pre-date recorded history, and
based on traditional Chinese
accounts, its origins trace back
to the 3rd to the 2nd
millennium BC. Modern
scholarship suggests that the
earliest layers of the text may date
from the end of the 2nd millennium
BC, but place doubts on the mythological
aspects in the traditional accounts. Some consider the I  Ching the
oldest extant book of divination, dating from 1000 BC and before.

IRIDOLOGY

Iridology (also known as


iridodiagnosis or iridiagnosis is
an alternative medicine
technique whose proponents
claim that patterns, colors, and
other characteristics of the iris
can be examined to determine
information about a patient's
systemic health. Practitioners
match their observations to iris
charts, which divide the iris into
zones that correspond to specific
parts of the human body.
Iridologists see the eyes as “windows”
into the body's state of health.

LEUCORRHOEA

Leucorrhoea (or leukorrhea) is a medical term that denotes a thick,


whitish or yellowish vaginal discharge. There are many causes of
leukorrhea, the usual one being estrogen imbalance. The amount of
discharge may increase due to vaginal infection or STDs, and also it
may disappear and reappear from time to time, this discharge can
keep occurring for years in which case it becomes more yellow and
foul-smelling; it is usually a non-pathological symptom secondary
to inflammatory conditions of vagina or cervix.
We can treat with Dien Chan using the formula:
63. 178. 7. 1. 22. 43. 61. 127. 287. 37. 0.

MEDULLA OBLONGATA

The medulla oblongata is the lower


half of the brainstem. In
discussions of neurology and
similar contexts where no
ambiguity will result, it is
often referred to as simply the
medulla. The medulla
contains the cardiac,
respiratory, vomiting and
vasomotor centers and deals
with autonomic, involuntary
functions, such as breathing,
heart rate and blood pressure.

MONISM

The monisme is a philosophical system. It holds that, in last


instance, only a primary substance exists in the universe. For the
materialistic monisme, the original substance of the universe would
be the matter and, on the contrary, for the idealists it would be the
spirit.

PARÆSTHESIA

Is a sensation of tickling, tingling, burning, pricking, or numbness


of a person's skin with no apparent long-term physical effect. It is
more generally known as the feeling of “pins and needles” or of a
limb “falling asleep”. The manifestation of paresthesia may be
transient or chronic.
Paresthesias of the hands and feet are common, transient
symptoms of the related conditions of hyperventilation syndrome,
often open mouth, and panic attacks.
Other common examples occur when sustained pressure has been
applied over a nerve, inhibiting/stimulating its function.

TONUS

Physical disorders can result in abnormally low (hypotonia) or high


(hypertonia) muscle tone. Hypotonia is seen in lower motor neuron
disease like poliomyelitis. Hypotonia can present clinically as
muscle flaccidity, where the limbs appear floppy, stretch reflex
responses are decreased, and the limb’s resistance to passive
movement is also decreased.

YANG TOOLS

The multireflex tools produce yin


and yang stimulations. They help
to activate the microcirculation
of blood and lymph in the areas
treated and activate the self-
regulation process.
When we stimulate a reflex
area on the face related to an
organ or a limb, we are
communicating with the brain.
There is no direct relation
between the area or the
reflexology point and the limb or the
brain.
We believe that our brain has the capacity to reactivate the flow of
energy (the Qi) and that using reflexology serves to stimulate this
process. The tools are also used directly on the body, giving fast
relief from pain, offering in-depth treatment and improving
microcirculation.
Tools that help to revitalize, heat, channel and dry produce effects
that are considered yang. They are ergonomic and adapt perfectly to
the curves of both face and body. Their spiked balls, hand-carved in
natural horn, produce immediate results without damaging the skin
or causing allergies. The detectors and brushes also create yang
effects, whereas the rakes produce very relaxing effects.
Chan’beauté uses yang tools to remodel, mobilize body fluids and
tone the skin. They are used to treat complaints that involve cold.
Most Chan’beauté treatments begin with stimulation using a yang
tool to achieve deeper, longer-lasting effects.

their horn.

YIN TOOL

Yin tools are used to calm, dissipate,


cool, hydrate and relax.
We tend to use tools with yin
effects when irrigation and
drainage of the affected body
part are required to mobilize
body fluids, preventing
stagnation or dryness. In the
case of hypersensitivity, we
recommend starting with yin
stimulation.
Whenever possible, local
combined with facial work
produces the most intensive and
lasting results.
Experience and ongoing study allow the therapist more easily to
identify the yin or yang needs of a disorder. If there is any doubt,
the body knows best; the sensation considered most pleasant is
decisive in choosing which end of the tool to use.
