If Madonna, Gwyneth Paltrow and Angelina Jolie are on the cover, it can only be good… From Upper Austria, 03/15 (the cover of the first edition of my book looked a bit different).
Customer opinions
You now know just how convinced I am of these methods. I’m sure you’d like to hear from other women whether all this is actually true, what they’ve taken away from the course and, above all, whether the methods really do work! Here are some testimonials from women who learnt these methods from me – just click on the photo to play the video.
Here is a summary of the individual feedbacks:
There are only 2 weeks between these photos!
„Dear Christina! It’s already been a week since our retreat and I’ve been diligently practising facial yoga, scraping, cupping and Dien Cham. I’m absolutely thrilled and have already seen fantastic results. The most impressive changes are my frown lines – or rather, my former frown lines. See for yourself. I took the first photo on the first day in Mallorca. The second one was taken just after the treatments… Family and friends have already commented on them too. Thank you so much for your fantastic work – I’m absolutely thrilled!„
Dear Christina, I am already one of you. Both your book and especially your super online course are great. I've already looked at and copied some of it many times. I'm really pleased with my results in the short time of about 3 weeks. I like the Dien Cham method best and I do the energy massage every morning. I have also bought the Book by Nhuan Le Quang bought. I don’t buy expensive cosmetics at all anymore. I prefer to use coconut oil and the „Royal Jelly“ face mask by Aurica. I’m a bit older now, after all, and it’s only now that I really have time for myself – or rather, I’m finally taking the time for myself. It’s not always easy alongside running my own business, but it’s worth it. There are so many wonderful and rewarding things out there; you just have to find them.
Best wishes, Uschi

She surprised me with a wonderful video in which she talks about her experiences with my methods. Thank you, dear Luise, I was absolutely delighted! I pricked up my ears when she spoke about „laying my exercises on her body“.

My dear Yin teachers and personal development tutors, (this email is addressed to me and Ursula; see the Mallorca retreat under „Live Courses“)
I just can't stop thanking you so many times and again and again for how much you have contributed to my well-being and beauty and continue to do so every day.
I am very happy with myself, I feel beautiful and truly ageless. Please can you tell your clients that this is just the beginning: i.e. the result of only 7 months of your Chi statt Botox massages combined with Yin food and lifestyle according to Ursula's recommendations. I plan to achieve much more, there is still a lot more to come, because I have learnt that much more is always possible than you can imagine.
With infinite gratitude for your indescribably great contribution to my quality of life, I send you a big yin hug!

Dear Christina,
people are sceptical, but isn't it the case that many people take the path of least resistance and prefer to apply an anti-wrinkle cream (facial yoga does a lot more work after all) and well, hope dies last and the cosmetics industry is believed. Although common sense already answers the question: it can't work!
By the way, your workshops are very professional, especially if you really want to make a difference. I’ve been „slacking off“ for years, after all.
As a beautician, I’m particularly delighted with this wonderful experience; my facial features are actually starting to relax and I come across as rested and relaxed to the people I’m talking to. My chin area is firmer (my sister noticed this, and I’m now passing this on to my clients as well).
Thank you, thank you for your work and best regards from Berlin!

The long, deep vertical lines – which I’ve always affectionately called ‘sagging lines’ – on either side of my mouth have disappeared. As you can see, I’ve got some small pleats around my mouth, but I’m sure I’ll be able to get rid of those with facial yoga too.
All my love,

Hello dear Christina,
I’m sure you’re wondering why I’m writing to you – but I’d like to thank you very much!
It was purely by chance that I came across your videos on YouTube. I was actually looking for a video on facial massage, because my new Braun epilator also has a massage attachment and I didn’t want to do anything wrong. I saw you in your videos and was absolutely thrilled – I ordered your book straight away and bought all the necessary bits and bobs…
I have been doing your suggested exercises for four weeks now and am so pleased with the success!
My sagging cheeks are almost gone,
My upper lip has become much fuller and the wrinkles around my lips are also almost gone,
My neck and décolleté have become firmer,
My drooping eyelids are also receding and the bags under my eyes are almost invisible.
You’ve given me back so much zest for life – it’s such a lovely feeling to look at yourself in the mirror, to accept yourself just as you are, and to be doing yourself so much good in the process. I haven’t used any cream for four weeks now either…
You can never tell how exhausted I am from my two operations. One was last year and the last one was at the beginning of July.
Just now at the petrol station, the cashier asked me if I’d had a good day today. I said, „Yes, what makes you say that?“, and he replied, ‘You’re beaming!’
Yes, Christina, I really am beaming – but from the inside out, if you know what I mean?
And I owe it all to YOU, which is why I wanted to let you know and thank you from the bottom of my heart for the GIFT you’ve given me! I’ve really had a tough time over the last few months, but thanks to you I’ve managed to pull myself out of this low point and make a fresh start…
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Best wishes from the German side of Lake Constance,
Corina Christina
PS: I took these photos today shortly after getting up, and now you can have a guess at how old I’ll be on 14 October 2020.

I don't remember exactly how I found Christina, but you simply can't miss an angel on earth. I was looking for something and found the perfect one for me. I've always attached a lot of importance to my appearance and after my 40th birthday I really thought that my life was slowly going backwards. I didn't feel unattractive at the time, but when I compare my photos from now to over a year ago, I realise that I wasn't the best version of myself. Corona also benefited me, of course, and I had a lot of time to look at myself.
I first discovered Christina on YouTube. At first it was just a video with 3 different exercises. As I like to apply false eyelashes, I realised that during the course of the day either my eyelid or the eyeshadow lingers on the eyeliner or eyelash glue. These exercises came in handy. I did them every day from then on. I watched more and more of Christina's videos, saved them and practised the lessons. I eventually subscribed to her on Instagram and so it started to become really intense and ultimately a lifestyle. I also changed my diet completely. I don't eat vegan but let's say 80% healthy/20% unhealthy (sometimes I do need a piece of chocolate), but the difference was also very soon recognisable. I soon ordered her book and since I've had it, you don't want to know what it's been like for about 9 months now. The book is as much a part of my daily routine as my morning coffee. I do my exercises regularly. I do Christina's exercises in the book every day and do a different one every day and then start all over again.
Yes, people laugh at me, but I don’t care anymore. I’d love to spread the word that Botox is the worst poison for these young women, and you can see time and again how unhappy these ladies become as they get older and eventually have to go under the knife because they’ve paralysed their muscles for years, thereby creating even more wrinkles and the like. Yes, it’s convenient but by no means sustainable. What Christina does doesn’t cost a fortune – just a few initial purchases – and, above all, it doesn’t hurt (apart from the initial muscle soreness). I’ll stick with it for as long as I can. I’ve become a yogi!!! I do the exercises in the loo at work and whenever I think of it. It’s so much fun, and a few weeks ago I had a real „wow“ moment when I looked at old photos from over a year ago, before I’d started facial yoga. I hadn’t realised the difference was that striking, as I see myself in the mirror every day, but this really blew me away. I just thought to myself, ‘That wasn’t you, was it?!’… You can see for yourselves: I’ve lifted my eyelids with the eye and forehead exercises, so I no longer have any problems with my make-up. My eyes look much bigger now.

My cheekbones have always been very high but they are now so beautifully soft. My chin has also got a super nice soft line and my lips are so well shaped and I love them the most and I work on them every day. I am very proud of myself and I can only urge every lady not to give up. Take photos and then compare them, I did that too (but more by chance). Every minute of yogi training is worth it and I will soon be 42 years old. All the best and love,
Your Kerstin

Dear Christina,
thank you for your wonderful YouTube videos!
It was only last Sunday that I came across facial yoga through your interview at the Self-Healing & Peace of Mind Congress. … So I immediately tried out a few of the exercises you demonstrate on YouTube for frown lines, drooping eyelids, sagging cheeks and crow’s feet. As early as yesterday – the fifth day I’d been doing the exercises – I noticed that my forehead, which I’d previously furrowed very deeply and very often, felt different and no longer furrowed as easily. Even in the evening, when I was tired! And when I looked in the mirror, completely exhausted, a fresh-faced version of myself was staring back at me. I also noticed straight away that, despite my drooping eyelids, my eyes actually look much more open already. It’s a shame I didn’t take any before-and-after photos. I would never have thought this was possible!! Such huge results after just the fifth ‚session‘! My mum noticed it straight away too – „now I’m actually a bit jealous“ – and she’s now really motivated to take up facial yoga again, which she tried a few years ago (though not very regularly).
It still feels a bit strange, because I can always feel myself wanting to furrow my brow, but it’s just too much of an effort and somehow doesn’t work. And when I do furrow it really deeply now, it looks completely different. Not just like skin wrinkles, but plumper, more muscular. I can already tell that it won’t be long now before my mind picks up on the ‚carefree‘ signals from my body and stops trying to work against them
Thank you very much!
All my love,
Ursula

Dear Christina,
I am very enthusiastic about your online facial programme. I also like the course because you have designed it clearly and it is not overloaded with unnecessary, time-consuming information.
I've been doing cupping and facial yoga for about a week now and am already enjoying the first results. But the best thing is that the practices are pleasant and can be easily integrated into a busy daily routine. I am particularly pleased with your selection of facial yoga exercises. I have tried various programmes in this area and found them all too time-consuming and I always had to struggle through them. Your programme is different. I do it twice a day and have even added two more exercises. Your programme has given me a real, everyday solution. Thank you very much for this.
Many greetings to Austria from Berlin,

Dear Christina,
My name is Juliane and I turned 44 this year. I tried Botox on my forehead for the first time last autumn because I was really unhappy with these wrinkles. After a few days, my forehead was as smooth as a baby's bum and I was thrilled at first. However, the Botox pushed my forehead completely down onto my eyebrows, which changed the way I looked. My partner and my sons kept asking me why I was looking so "evil" and I just thought: "I CAN'T look any differently. I can't move my eyebrows."
Mmmhhh. So one problem solved and a new one opened ;-).
After six months, everything was back to normal and I decided not to do the Botox again. Then I spoke to a work colleague who is older than me - but looks much younger - and asked her about her "secret" just for fun. And she got me thinking about facial yoga. Then I did a lot of googling and ended up on your YouTube channel.
I have now devoured both of your books and have been doing your online course for 11 days. My partner said to me yesterday that I look so fresh and well-rested. So very similar to what you wrote in your book. I just had to write you that as feedback. I've also sent you a before/after photo.
I am totally happy and motivated.
DAAAANKE. And best wishes from Berlin.

Hello, dear Christina,
Many thanks again to you and your highly interesting course in Austria. I have already treated my clients with facial reflexology before and they are all delighted.
One evening, a general practitioner came to me for a facial treatment with massage. After the treatment, he told me that he had been suffering from severe migraines all day and that they had not gone away despite strong medication. He told me that after my facial reflexology massage the migraine was now completely gone and he felt totally relaxed and at ease. A doctor with headaches also confirmed this after the treatment, saying that she no longer had any pain. But I was also really impressed by your instructions for facial gymnastics. It's actually logical, you train every muscle in your body to stay fit, so the facial muscles should also be trained, with success!!!
I have been using cupping, an ancient method for the face and body, for a long time and it is very popular with customers. I personally prefer to do cupping with cupping cups instead of scraping.
Conclusion: To expand my knowledge, the journey from the Allgäu to you in Upper Austria was a very good decision, as I want to achieve more for my customers than just cosmetics with products. I can only recommend you!
You might want to pass on your knowledge to other beauticians at a Beauty Munich congress event.
Greetings from the Allgäu

Dear Christina,
After about 10 months of practising, cupping and scraping using your book and the online course, I would now like to take a moment to report on my successes.
I am now 50 years old. When I was around 45, I started to feel increasingly unhappy and sometimes ashamed of my increasingly tired and sagging face, nasobial folds, sagging cheeks, pronounced dark circles and bags under my eyes, as well as my sallow skin. I was often asked why I looked so tired. I was really suffering. When I was in need, I went to a cosmetic surgeon and had hyaluronic acid injected to combat the dark circles under my eyes. The result was severe puffiness and hardening that did not disappear for many weeks and more pronounced tear troughs than before the hyaluronic acid injection. As a result, I had nothing more done to my eyes.
About a year later, however, the pressure of suffering drove me to the surgeon twice more to have hyaluronic acid injected into my nasobial folds. The result wasn't bad, but of course it didn't last. I was never convinced by the injections and wondered what to do next. I couldn't and didn't want to imagine having hyaluronic acid injections every six months for the rest of my life, especially as the dark circles under my eyes were still pronounced and I just looked tired overall.
I’d had your book at home for a while, but hadn’t got round to using it yet. At the start of this year, I spent a few weeks in a rehabilitation centre. I decided to use that time to try out your programme and worked on it every day – with really great results. My family were flabbergasted when I came home from rehab. My son asked me where all the wrinkles around my eyes had gone
Of course, there are still plenty of creases and less attractive areas. But that's fine with me. Overall, I just feel really good again, my skin is fresher, dark circles are still there, but I'm happy for them to be there in this form :). My sagging cheeks and nasobial folds are only slightly more pronounced, the area around my mouth is nicer and overall I feel that my face has a nicer shape, I can't really describe it. The skin itself is also cleaner, fresher and feels firmer.
I am now often told that I look younger than 50. I only hear that I look tired when I really don't feel rested. Simply beautiful.
I didn’t actually mean to write this much. It was just – when I looked in the mirror – a spontaneous urge to say thank you for all your brilliant work! I’m sure I’m far from the only one you’ve helped through this period of distress.
Best wishes and have a sunny weekend,
Nicola

"My skin is fresh and much smoother and clearer - I haven't had a single pimple since. The wrinkles on my forehead have virtually disappeared. I saw the first results on the very first day."
"The chin is beautifully defined again, the eye wrinkles are now just fine lines. The skin is plump and fresh after the scraping and the wrinkles are much less. I noticed the effect straight after the course."
"The horizontal wrinkles on my forehead have disappeared and my double chin is better. I have lost 2 dress sizes without my face becoming sunken or wrinkled. When I'm tired and my complexion is pale, I cupping. My whole head feels clearer afterwards. Similar with Dien Cham."
"I find that the face looks more radiant and younger, rosier and simply more awake. Wrinkles recede, but above all - no new ones appear. When my partner does it, he snores less."
“You can see the immediate results – your skin becomes plumper, rosier and firmer. I can wholeheartedly recommend this course.”
"I have to say, it has reduced a lot of wrinkles. Even my small skin hardening has become softer. In the morning I notice that my skin is firmer."
"The forehead wrinkle is less, the eyes change, they become more open and clearer. The face and eyes are more relaxed, you have a holistic feeling of well-being."
