Holistic cosmetics – naturally energizing and holistic

The holistic and naturally energizing care line from Switzerland is based on the Chinese 5 element principle (wood, fire, earth, metal, water) and offers the highest-quality treatments, which energetically and individually conform to the needs of your skin. All energy treatments are aimed at rebuilding and maintaining a stable energy balance in the body to achieve a greater extent of health and wellness

Health and beauty from a Chinese point of view represent the harmonious cooperation of the organs as a result of the balance of energy and substance. Energy (Chi) and substances are extracted from inhaled air and nutrition and the organs via energy pathways, which lead to the bloodstream and meridians. The positive feedback yields a beaming, fresh appearance and an overall good feeling for your skin. But the balance of Yin and Yang is also crucial for the health, activity, and well-being of man.

Each element corresponds to nature and the four seasons but also to our life in the form of transformations, changes, as well as external and internal influences.

When energies are not harmoniously flowing but are in disharmony according to the 5 element theory, this is manifested in the form of cosmetic and physique problems. For this reason, Phytobiodermie has developed a 5 care line with naturally energizing care products and care programs, which specially cater to the principles of the 5 elements: PHYTO 5

Element of wood / Spring / 05.02.-16.04.

The season of the element of wood is spring, a time when all nature awakens to new life and our strength is renewed. When wood is your predominant energy and you are in harmony with it, you are a powerful, creative being with firm tissue, muscular, well-proportioned physique, tighter, more vital skin, and strong hair.

If your energies are not in harmony, you are prone to anger and fits of rage, weight gain in the thighs, and mainly oily facial and body skin, blackheads, large pores, and pigmentation. The energy, which is carried up in the juice of the plant and which causes the buds to swell and finally burst, is the same as that which flows through your body, your mind, and your soul.

Element of fire / Summer / 06.05.-19.07.

Because the strength of fire is felt at its strongest in summer, you should relax during this time and gather new energy. Strong heat and constant activity can overburden your body and in particular your heart. Pace yourself and fight your tendency to burn the candle at both ends. Bear in mind that the summer months can not only strengthen your energy but also deplete it. When you are endowed with the gleaming, fierce energy of fire and it harmoniously flows within you, you are a warmhearted, communicative, extroverted being with a rosy tint, warm skin, and a beaming appearance.

With an excess of fire energy, you are subject to heat and sweating, sensitive skin prone to redness and allergies, itching, and sunburns. Red capillaries on the face and body, oily scalp, and thin hair are among the weaknesses of the fire element.

Element of earth / Times of transition
17.01.-04.02. / 17.04.-05.05. / 20.07. - 07.08. / 20.10.-07.11.

The season of the element of earth is late summer. However, it is also said in ancient Chinese writings that the last 18 days of each season are the time of the earth element (dojo time), because the powers of nature during this period are in perfect balance. Although tranquility prevails externally in these transition times, major changes are taking place under the surface as the elementary energies of wood, fire, earth, metal, and water or the seasonal energies of spring, summer, autumn, and winter are changing over to a different state. When our earth energy is in balance in the changing seasons, we are in a position to maintain our balance. If your predominant energy is earth, you are a harmonious, balanced being. Harmony and compassion as well as clear thinking are distinguishing characteristics. The skin is clear and fine pored, and the body is evenly proportioned.

If the harmony becomes unbalanced, there is inner tension and poor transfer of nutrition, which therefore leads to slagging, weight gain around the waist, flabby thighs and cellulite particularly on the inner surface, blemished skin with inflammation, and greasy, scaly scalp.

Element of metal / Autumn / 08.08.-19.10.

The season of metal is fall, a time when leaves change color, dry up, and fall from the trees. In the autumn, we gather energy for the hard months and strain of winter when we must be flexible and adaptable to maintain our health and inner balance. We complete unfinished projects, create stocks of food and fuel, and prepare ourselves in every possible form physically and emotionally for the coming dark and cold months. For people with a constitution of metal, autumn is the best time to establish order and to release all the superficial and unnecessary.

If your life is ruled by the power of the element of metal, you are a disciplined, structured, and orderly being who appears determined yet flexible. When the metal energy is not in balance, dryness and dehumidification lead to flaky skin on the face, body, and scalp. There is swelling, congestion, a tendency for heavy legs, surface veins, and varicose veins. You have a delicate, porcelain complexion with good moisture content through a balanced mineral composition, which is also reflected by well-nourished hair all the way to the ends.

Element of water / Winter / 08.11.-16.01.

The season of water is winter when energy is stored, gathered, and conserved in the depths for the upcoming renewal in order to awake again as powerful energy in the spring. Just as water on earth freezes, water energy in this season can also dry up, become passive, and withdraw to the inside. The phase of tranquility sets in. With people who suffer from particular cold or lack of energy in the winter months, there could be a disturbance of water energy balance. If the water element is in harmony, this is shown in bold, persistent behavior, will power, determination, and emotional as well as knowledgeable depth. Those with the water element possess a good water balance, which is reflected by resilience of the tissues, healthy hair and tight skin, as well as moisture.

When the water element is not in balance, this is expressed by anxiety, apprehension, rigidity, and lack of initiative. The skin is lacking in vitality, tired, and is prone to tissue weakness, fine lines and wrinkles, water circulation and congestion problems, as well as weak hair and hair loss.
