I suggest massaging both ankles deeply while taking a hot spa. On the ankles are many acupuncture points on both the kidney and the bladder meridians...especially the area between the os calcis and the malleoli. 2. You need a large intake of water, because the large intake of water leads to a high volume of urine. The high volume of urine reduces the burden on the kidneys, which excrete a dilute urine with less work than they do a concentrated urine. And, with the high intake of water, there is less chance that crystals of one kind or another will form out of the body fluids. Urinary calculi (kidney stones) are usually calcium and magnesium phosphates and urates, or, less commonly, cystine. A continual high volume of water (8 to 10 cups a day, sipped during the day) will probably avert any problems in the future. 3. Kidney stones seem to form in people in acidic urine. Persons with a tendency to form these stones are advised to keep their urine alkaline. That can easily be achieved by taking Vit C as sodium ascorbate, or by taking ascorbic acid with just enough sodium hydrogen carbonate (ordinary baking soda), or other alkalizer to neutralize it. 4. A way to help " void " a kidney stone. " Add a half a pint of spirits of turpentine to one and a half quarts of hot water. Then cloths were to be dipped in the solution, wrung out, and applied to the lower abdomen, and were to be changed often...doing as indicated would offer a means for causing a disintegrating of the stone sufficient for its passage without operative forces because of the very nature of the penetrating influences of the turpentine. " 5. Another Way To " void " a kidney stone. " Do " drink as much water as possible, and then hold your urine for as long as possible, until the pressure was so intense you could not hold it any longer " ... ....the pressure will help break down the stones... ....the pressure will enlarge the apertures in the kidneys, allowing easier passage of the remaining stones... ....and the pressure will flush those stones from your system... Source materials for further research, " The Edgar Cayce Remedies " by William A. McGarey, M.D. " How to Live Longer and Feel Better " by Dr. Linus Pauling. " Energy Medicine " by Donna Eden...blab, blab, blab. Hope the above helps. John M. La Tourrette Ps. I am not a medical doctor...I'm just giving some resources for the person that inquired. --- End forwarded message --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
