Homeopathic Facial Analysis

Faces reveal important information about the body’s dominant stress response patterns. Our stress response patterns are our body’s basic survival instincts in action. These patterns of disease susceptibility are called miasms in homeopathy, and are with us for life.

Homeopathic Facial Analysis (HFA) is a modern research based method of classifying an individual’s susceptibility to stress and disease. HFA takes into account both nature and nurture. Our facial features naturally express a unique combination of inheritance (genetics), and environmental influences (epigenetics).

We all have predisposing patterns of response to a multitude of environmental stressors that can lead to illness. For example: sensitivity to allergens, foods and toxins, response to viruses, bacteria and other microorganisms, injuries, medical interventions and trauma, reactivity to temperate or climate changes, or susceptibility to mental and emotional stressors.

7 Colour Groups in HFA

In HFA, homeopathic miasms are now known as Colour Groups. Only one of the 7 Colour Groups is dominant for each person, and persists throughout life as our features change with time.

Based on the historical work of Dr Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, HFA expands Hahnemann’s three original groups (miasms) to include four complex groups. The seven groups of inherited stress response are brought to life in the book, Soul & Survival, written to inform the general public. Author Grant Bentley, captures the essence of Hahnemann’s observations about chronic disease and creatively illustrates how evolution influences disease expression for each individual.
