Constipation in children is a growing world problem. In fact, more children than adults are suffering from constipation to some extent or the other. Nipping constipation in the bud is very important, because as the child grows, it might compound to several complicated forms. This article is a collection of some relevant information on constipation in children.

Constipation in Children – Causes

The following are some of the main causes why constipation occurs in children:-

1. The most prominent cause for constipation in children is holding back bowel motions. They have to do this often in their school hours.

2. Changes of climate and diet, especially when traveling or on a holiday can cause constipation.

3. Children also eat a lot of wrong foods. Foods that are too oily and spicy – typically those that are classified as ‘junk foods’ – can cause constipation in children.

4. Some infections in the alimentary tract can commonly occur in children. This can cause constipation.

Constipation in Children – Symptoms

Children commonly show the following symptoms when they suffer from constipation:-

1. Difficulty in passing stools or infrequent bowel motions

2. Pain and discomfort when passing stools

3. A heated sensation in the stomach, generally after eating a meal

4. An uncomfortable feeling of fullness in the stomach after having meals

5. Lethargy and wanting to lie down on the bed for a long time, even after just having woken up for the morning

It is important that the parents read these signs and symptoms in their children. Children themselves will not know what is happening with them. Parents must keep track of the bowel motions of their kids by inculcating a daily habit. If there is anything amiss, a doctor must be notified, who will then look for further treatment requirements.

Constipation in Children – Treatment

There are many options for treatment of constipation in children, but it is first important that the doctor must be sure it is a case of constipation. Once that is done, the doctor will try to clean the accumulated feces in the colon through different methods. Principally, it involved softening the hardened accumulated stools in the colon so that they can pass out easily. A host of medicines can be prescribed for this purpose. When the stools eventually become soft, they will pass out with speed. That is why, once the medication of the child is started for constipation, the child must stay at home and must be made to wear loose clothing that can be easily removed for performing the bowel movement.

A good home remedy is to use the powder of triphala. Children must be given a triphala mixture in water each night before retiring for the night. The method is to take one or two teaspoonfuls of triphala powder and put it in a cup of slightly warm water. Have the child drink this suspension hastily. If the constipation is mild, this triphala suspension will soften the stools overnight and in the morning, the child will have a normal bowel movement.

The Hawaiian Pocket Dictionary defines lomilomi as a method “to rub, press, crush, massage, rub out; to work in and out, as claws of a contented cat.” Another translation is, “to break up into small pieces.” In the early 1900′s lomilomi was coined “Hawaiian massage” by the legal system.”

The depth of true lomilomi was virtually limitless in terms of its ability to offer potential for healing to each patient; however, the government of the time had to label it” and put in a category, which is not the Hawaiian way,” says Yates. “It is correct to say that lomilomi encompasses a massage, but it is not limited to it. Native Hawaiians say the true definition of lomilomi is reconnecting with spirit.”

“Recipients of a lomilomi treatment often experience freedom from anxiety, worry, fear and a host of other negative thought patterns.”While lomilomi is often referred to as a spiritual massage, the technique is also practical and specific. It is, for example, effective in breaking up calcium deposits and lactic acid build-up.

This is accomplished by a variety of movements, such as circular thumb strokes that are done in a one-two-three rhythm directly over the area. Knuckle strokes are used on larger, denser muscles in the same rhythm, followed by soothing forearm strokes and hacking. According to Auntie Margaret, lomilomi has a profound effect on the health and development of the muscles, and the activity of the blood and nerves associated with them.

It dilates blood vessels, thus improving circulation and helping to prevent strokes. It relieves muscle spasms and increases the rate of nutrients brought to the muscles by the blood, with out increasing lactic acid production. It stimulates the lymphatic system to release waste products, and is useful after injury to ligaments and tendons by dispersing edema. It also restores vitality and heightens metabolism.
“True lomilomi in the right hands gives immediate and long-term results,” Yates says.

In addition to lomilomi’s physical benefits are the emotional releases felt during and after a session. Recipients of a lomilomi treatment often experience freedom from anxiety, worry, fear and a host of other negative thought patterns. This freedom comes only when the practitioner is aware of their responsibility to the client.”It is a process that allows the patient to meet the practitioner mid-way in their crisis so healing can take place.” Yates says.”

It is the lomilomi practitioner’s responsibility to guide and treat each patient with right intentions using the correct protocol of treatment based on his/her feelings. The purpose of lomilomi is to bring alignment back to the individual in body, mind and spirit.”

During a genuine lomilomi session, the therapist is aligned with divine energy, and keeps his or her heart and mind clear for Spirit to move through them as a conduit for healing energy. Proper breathing and pure thoughts are important. According to the Hawaiians, thoughts contain mana, or energy. When thoughts are combined with touch and breath they are transferred to the receiver. Therefore the therapist’s thoughts must be focused on love and healing.

If something has occurred which interferes with the therapist’s ability to control their thoughts, then ho’oponopono is practiced. Ho’oponopono is a prayer of forgiveness and of making things right. It must be done if we have harmed another person or ourselves in though, word or deed. According to Mary Golden, a lomilomi instructor in Colorado, ho’oponopono “is a spiritual practice of making things right with yourself and all others before God.

One who truly practices ho’oponopono is one who takes a daily inventory of his or her thoughts. Any intent to harm, any conscious or unconscious attitudes of malice, jealousy, or hatred must be rooted out and replaced with aloha. Aloha is recognizing the divine nature in every living thing.”

“If you want to change anything in yourself you must change the process of thought that affects the materialization of consciousness into different forms of matter and action.”According to Dane Silva, D.O., a native Hawaiian healing arts practitioner, Ho’oponopono is also used when someone has suffered a serious loss, causing emotional trauma that runs deep into the internal organs.

This affects the spirit, and leads to internal imbalance and systemic dysfunction. Unless it is corrected and made right again, a person’s thought, feeling and behavior may be negatively affected. Ho’oponopono restores balance and function within the individual, within the family, within the community and within the environment (aina).

Based on traditional cultural values and concepts, ho’oponopono has been adapted to work within the fabric of modern society, with each participant observing a specific protocol. By opening one’s heart and mind in a supportive group, led by a respected family elder or local practitioner, the practice of healing from within begins.

Anyone interested in using a detox foot patch will immediately discover that there is a plethora of brands on the market today. The problem for the consumer is which one to choose.

Many patches claim to be the original and the best but their ads and websites may be deceiving the consumer.

How can you determine which patch is the original?

If you check closely, you will probably find patches that claim to use the original formula, not that they are the original patch. All the formulas for detox foot pads have some connection with the original formula, but beware of questionable claims. The original formula is patented in the US and Japan and cannot be copied.

Another simple way to determine the original detox foot patch is by seeing Dr. Kawase Itsuko, and only Dr. Kawase Itsuko in relation to the patch. Many websites reference multiple Doctors and always include Dr. Kawase Itsuko in the mix. That is because, they need Dr. Itsuko’s name to lend credibility. Beware of detox foot patches that use her name but may be of inferior quality.

How do you determine which is the best?

One key measurement of quality is where and how the detox foot patches are manufactured. Very few are manufactured in JAPAN — most are made on CHINA or KOREA. Be sure to carefully check where the patch is manufactured. Do not be fooled be phrases such as “originally formulated in Japan”. This does not mean the brand you are looking at is actually made in Japan. For the best quality, look for detox foot patches manufactured in Japan and in a sterile environment. Also check to see if the detox foot patch you are buying is pre-tested to ensure they are toxin free.

Often a website will boast that their detox foot patches are of the highest quality, but when you begin to compare them to other patches they fall short of their claim.

Another item often looked at by the consumer as a sign of quality in detox foot patches is the Negative Ion Reading. Detox foot pads are often manufactured and charged with negative ions to ensure effective neutralization of free radicals from toxins; but the amount of negative ions vary greatly from brand to brand. Look for a brand of detox foot patch that has a very high negative ion reading.

Rember, the quality of detox foot pads on the market today varies greatly. Don’t settle, look fot the best pads you can find.

Are you excited or dreading the prospect of living to be 100 based on reasonable projections of your health lifestyle?

2. How could hazardous metal detection impact you and your family? Many people automatically think mercury or lead when they read this. But you will quickly learn that there is a whole range of heavy metals that you were not even aware of. Enough people are concerned about this exposure to personally pay to gain knowledge and see what medical follow-up may be needed.

3. What is in your personalized medical profile? How much money do you think people are paying per person and in aggregate for DNA profiles? People are doing this because they want to know more about family health issues and propensities that may impact the quality of their senior years.

4. How many nanotech applications are included as a subassembly or component of new emerging products? Has the widely touted but embarrassingly slow-to-implement field finally arrived? It appears that converging efforts with materials management and the huge amount of prior investments are beginning to reach a tipping point whereby nanotech-enabled products are becoming viable in a range of both high-tech and low tech products.

5. What is behind the growth of the raw food industry, which is a subset of the organic foods industry? When was the last time you looked at the profile of organic foods customers and witnessed the growing appeal of eating naturally grown food?
