Guest guest Posted January 13, 2000 Report Share Posted January 13, 2000 Hi Sam! You might want to try looking into what massage can do to blood sugar levels. I was at a talk on massage and the gal was saying that you do need to be careful with diabetics as massage can drop their blood sugar level. She had a lady almost pass out from the massage...she was under alot of stress that day and the massage totally relaxed her..but her sugar had dropped to 36...she had her monitor with her and was able to take it right away. So now this clinic recommends that any diabetics bring a piece of fruit or some fruit juice with them when getting a massage. I think that this would be a great test, could be done right in a hospital....usually high blood sugar levels are detected in the emergency room, as that is where the person...who has had zero previous problems ends up and finds out they are diabetic.
