Learning to "read the body"

Throughout the years of being a natural health consultant ive taken many classes from many practitioners. One of my favorite has been "reading the body" from an herbalist. It goes over all the markings and patterns in the skin, face, nails, etc etc and what conditions with which they might conincide.

Anyone else go through this type of training?

By markings and patterns, do you mean wrinkles and things like palmar flexion creases?

@Northwest kind of...but more like ridges on the fingernails, dark under eye circles, wrinkles coming from the top lip...etc

@Lloorrii2 Abnormal fingernail ridges probably mean one's diet is not optimal or exposure to toxins, and under eye circles can also indicate bad diet, drinking, smoking, lack of deep sleep and stress.
