Hyperhidrosis

[Guest guest]

Marilette,

 

Hyperhidrosis " sweaty palms and feet " , I must say that I've had

this 'condition' since I was very young. In fact, I can't remember

not having it and figured it was genetic only, and stopped worrying

about it.

 

I have been a massage and somatic therapist for 5 years and have it

has never really been a problem, until a few weeks ago. With a need

to generate some more income, I took a position to do some chair

massage (no oils, so it should be dry)and have had a number of

complaints about my " sweaty hands " . One client told my boss she

wanted her money back, I've never really seriously took notice of

how people reacted to my wet hands, it's was just part of me.

 

But over the last week, I'm now taking a look back through time and

seeing that others have reacted the same (interviews, dates, dance

partners, introduced people, etc), only they didn't have a person to

complain to other than me about the peoblem, and it seems they didn't

want to offend me or something.

 

Anyway, back in college it was a problem from my sports and I did

some research. I learned that this is caused by a hyperactivity of

the Sympathetic Nerves (fight or flight response) and that it's

curable with a surgery that seems to be messing with the ganglion

nerves along the spine. This is something I dont want to do.

 

One, my intuition tells me that this nerve system is important and

needed in the work/energy work I do, and second I dont feel I need

take those chances over sweaty palms. In fact, I once had a dream

where I had this surgery performed (though in the dream it only

required a small incision in the wrist), while my hands were now dry,

they no longer radiated any love or energy. This was a dream I took

advice from and stopped looking into the option of surgery.

 

Is there something I can do about this symptom?

 

Also, I know that I'm a very emotional person, have been all my life,

Since I was a young boy, I have always felt a severe grieving sadness

in my being and even though I have worked through much of this

(meditations, healing, triangle) it is still there only a

thought/emotion away. I've been working to keep my front and back

solar plexus and heart chakras clean, since first starting with

Pranic healing and Arhatic Yoga.

 

Could this sometimes overwhelming emotion be the cause of the sweaty

palms? or related at least?

 

Any help, information or ideas would be very much appreciated.

 

Namaste and thankyou in advance for your advice,

 

Greg
