would u use a desethitising materials around the tooth?

do you know some natural herbs for this?

 

the tooth *is* in tha maxillar jaw and it makes sense that it might be more

problematic the root canal in the mandibula (maxillae is less dense - more

pores in the bone)

 

but to avoid cold drinks or food is a compromise / limit

so i do not know how to decide - l

compromise over root canal

or compromise about food temprature.

 

thank you

Dear Anat,

Yes, use it around the tooth, must be gentle with the tissues for awhile.

Many people avoid cold things because of a touchy tooth, but if you

experience a long time with it being sensitive to hot, that usually means an

infection, and then the infection is worse than a root canal. In dentristy

it seems always to be the lessor of two evils, which is why is scares

everyone so much.

For a week or so after having a filling its not abnormal to be sensitive to

hot/cold, but if the hot sensitivity lasts, you're going to need to do

somethng. You might try some grapefruit seed extract, as that has had some

success in treating root infection that is mild. Most health food stores

carry it.

I've had to make this decision a number of times, and I have the same

concerns about root canal. But a few teeth I just had no choice.

My affirmation is that soon, the dentists will have brand new technology to

help fix these things in a more win win way. :-)

love

Hi Sean:

 

Somewhat complicated - if you give her strong blood movers it could

be depleting right after childbirth and affect the baby through the

milk. I'm assuming that the congealed blood is deep, between the

lower part of the the muscle and the deep fascia, but perhaps not,

perhaps it's the superficial fascia close to the skin.

 

Either way, it would be useful to work with it through poltices -

most effective if the blood is superficial.

 

Castor oil draws through the skin and is soothing. Charcoal has

similar properties. Ground flax seed draws too and is cooling.

Blood movers can be used topically as well, but I don't have personal

experience with them. Not sure if some would be irritating to the

skin if kept on for awhile. Check your texts on topical use of blood

movers. Mang xiao is supposed to break up congealed blood. There

are quite a few others.

 

Babies are sometimes very sensitive to internal herbs. I took a

blood tonic when my daughter was 3 months old and she broke out in a

terrible rash even though I felt great from it. At 2 weeks I would

thnk there would be more opportunity for a reaction from the baby.

But it would still be worth a try giving one dose of a blood moving

formula to see how it is tolerated. However - she would probably

still be bleeding only 2 weeks after birth. You'd have to be careful

increasing the flow too much.

 

An external poltice with mild heat applied to it would probably help

the absorption. Prepare the herbs in powdered form in little baggies

and then ask her to mix them with castor oil, place them over the

haematoma, place gauze or telfa over it and tape it down. A

microwaveable hot pack could be placed over it. You could do the

first one in your office. If your treatments run about an hour,

that's a good amount of time to check for skin sensitivity from any

blood movers you might choose. Then you could give her packages to

take home and use for increasingly longer times. The warmth might

help with the pain.

 

Meanwhile, she should be sure she has lots of help so she can lie

down through this painful time snuggling and bonding with her little

one.

 

Good luck, Diane

ACUPUNCTURE BENEFICIAL AS SHORT-TERM TREATMENT FOR NECK PAINAcupuncture works better than massage as a short-term treatment forchronic neck pain, German investigators said on Friday.http://orthopedics.medscape.com/39792.rhtml?srcmp=orth-070601<a href="http://orthopedics.medscape.com/39792.rhtml?srcmp=orth-070601">Read it Here</a>

gab, I wish you the best in finding a new healer.

However I am puzzled by the time frame. (one year). As a California primary

health care provider, (acupuncture, herbs, and Tui-na - medical massage)

that to me is a very long treatment and you should either be noticeably

better or change providers/protocols.

 

Since the Center will still be open and presumably open to you they should

have another practionor at the same rate and the change may actually serve

you well.

 

Please understand this is not a criticism of your old practionor. Very often

in the healing profession (M.D's included) one's touch dose not resonate for

a particular person.

RE: Jin Shin Jyutsu

 

I have been having Jin Shin treatments for almost a year (twice a

week)for a back injury that I received 3 years ago and also from a

prior back injury almost 15 years ago. Anyway, to make a long story

short. I Have been going to a Jin Shin Practioner that worked at a

Retreat Center and was charged a minimal charge of $20 per hour

session. I just found out today that this coming Thursday will be the

last session I can have, due to the Retreat Center cutting back on

personell and they let the Practitioner that I was going to go. She

was a major part of the retreat center, but luckily for her the same

day they let her go and told her she had two weeks to clear out her

office and apartment (she lived on the grounds of the Retreat Center)

She was offered a job in California at another retreat Center. I'm

happy for her, but am lost. I have no way to pay the amounts that

most practioners charge for a session. Since this was a religious

Retreat Center they just asked for a small donation of the $20 for

all sessions.

 

Now I need to find another practitioner on top of one that I can

afford. I won't be able to go 2 times a week, but if I could at least

find one in the area I live in would help. I called one of the

largest Jin Shin Clinic, which is run by Mary Burmeister, in

Scottsdale. But, that is over an hour and a half drive one way for me

to get there. And they charge $65 per session. Does anyone in this

group know how I could find a GOOD practitioner in the Phoenix

Arizona area? Or somewhere where I can get information on self help?

Or any suggestions at all? I would appreciate any help anyone can

give me.

 

Thank you for your time. I hope to hear from from someone letting me

know there is a directory somewhere out there that I can call people

to find out their charge and location. Or get a recommendation from

someone who knows a good Jin Shin Practitioner in my area.

 

Again, I thank you and look forward to hearing from you.

Dear group

Can any body give me some ideas with this case? I found out that this lady has in fact tried many more practitioners than she is letting on and I do want to help. This is the e mail she sent me. Any Ideas would be greatly appreacited.

" Here goes, I hope I don't overburden you with too much information.

I am 48 years old and have been getting migrains since my mid-twenties. Not very frequent at first, but the intensity and frequency increased after having children (the first one when 28 yrs). I didn't get migrains when I was pregnant, but usually within a week or two after giving birth, I would get a migrain. Now, I usually get a bad migrain at the onset of menstruation, or during. But I can get one for no logical reason as well, sometimes when overstressed or overtired, or when travelling (I get travel sickness sometimes too).

The trouble starts when I wake up and my head feels dull and heavy over the top of my head, with slight nausea. Sometimes, it is more painful at this stage and I can't get out of bed. If these symptoms persist after being slightly releived by eating, showing etc., then I will take a homeopathic remedy (usually nat mur or arsenicum) plus a prescription pain killer (its called Panadine Forte in Australia). If these take effect, I can usually finish my day's jobs - having to go to bed about asr or maghrib time - occasionally, the onset of maghrib either lessens or worsens the pain. By this time the pain has centred to my left temple and I feel very nauseous. My bowels usually move quite readily during the day. My head feels very heavy, and my neck feels too weak to hold it up. I yawn alot, and my eyelids are heavy with bloodshot eyes. My joints start aching too, and I am very irritable by this stage. I just have to lie down. Worse for movement, particularly if I am out in a car, train or plain. This will bring on the vomiting and intense sleepiness, but will also cause the migrain to go through its phases much quicker than if I was in bed - but very painful and distressing. Sometimes, after a good night's sleep, the migrain is gone the next morning, with just a " hangover " type feeling. If it is still there, I will have to spend that day in bed and then it might by that night or the next morning that I recover. It has never been more than 48 hours - after the symptoms start increasing. I cannot eat or drink once it gets to the point of going to bed, sometimes before that if I just have to stay up to do something, so I get very dehydrated (increased too because of the pain killer). The day after, my lower back is sore and weak, but within 12 hours of walking around it is much better. I cannot lie on right side (even when I'm not sick) because it makes by left temple feel like an open hole, expossing all the nerves to the air. If I do lie on my right side (when not sick), which is preferable being sunna, I can feel the nerves tingling - if I fall asleep like that my head feels dull next morning and a mild migrain may follow.

About 8 years ago I had treatment from an acupuncturist, which lessened the symptoms but didn't get rid of them. This treatment improved my overall health, including my back. I have also tried various diets (yeast free, dairy free, wheat free etc) which helped for a short time, but weren't sustaining.

We live in a semi-tropical climate, and I sometimes get a migrain coming on before a tropical storm, and is often relieved by the breaking of the storm. I have taken gelsemium (homeopathically) which can help.

I sometimes get a migrain before or just after an emotional event - whether its enjoyable or distressing. I feel that certain people can put me in a certain state of stress that easily brings on some of the symptoms, without necessarily getting a full- on migrain. Also, I often get a migrain after fasting - sometimes 2 or 3 during Ramadan.

I do alot of dhikr when I am bed-ridden, and make lots of du'as, so the time is not a waste, but if I have to spend 1 or 2 days twice or three times a month in bed, then it does create a certain apprehension in my life, particularly when I commit myself to doing something in particular and I don't know if I can make it or not, which itself,in turn, creates the situation to make me sick. "

 

Insh'Allah I have covered everything.

 

Thank you for your quick reply. I had children at ages 28, 32, 35 and 37. Never had any miscarriages and never used the pill, or any other contraceptives, as I had difficulty conceiving, but was easier after each child. During these years I also had irregular cycles, but that's fixed now, alhamdulillah.

Dear Master Fe,

 

1. About the treatment of cancer: when you have metastasis eg in the lungs

or the brain, what is the best way to do healing?

 

2. Many doctors ask what pranic healers think of harmonising and treating

scars; Master doesn't say a word about it. Please explain this.

 

3. Please give me a treatment for obesity and overweight.

 

4.I have one client with polyartritis and looked up in the book the

treatment of autoimmundeseases and artritis. There I read to energize the

basic chakra with lwred and to energize the spleen. But my client gets

treatment to weaken the immune system (the less leucocytes she produces the

better she feels). Now I'm afraid to energize the spleen and activate the

immune system (I just cleaned and energized a little bit with electric

violett). Can you give me a suggestion in this special case?

 

Thank you

Love and blessings

That is very kind of you Margaret. Please keep praying. This indeed has been a horrible learning experience. Blessings and Light.

[Guest guest]

Margaret, thank you so much.

It is sad what hatred and anger can do to not one person but thousands. If

only that could change. Sure we all have different perspectives but killing

innocent people is appalling. If 2 men want to argue, it should be between

them, not between countries.

Thank you.

 

Please, everyone say a prayer that this violence will not continue. I feel

it isn't over yet. Please, pray. I have been all day and hope my prayers are

answered.

 

God bless those who are the survivors.

 

Enjoy your day....

 

fondly,
