When we speak of the fabulous relaxation capacity that mind control gives us, the first thing that comes to our mind, is that we will be able to take off, the excesses of nervous tension, the stress; and this is a great benefit.

When at the beginning of the twentieth century it was spoken about stress, it was usual to think of company owners or big executives.

But our accelerated and competitive western way of life made that now when we speak about stress, we not only think in big executives or in company owners, but also in intermediate level bosses, in employees, in workers, in housewives and in primary school children.

I think that everyone that has a small children, will surely have had the opportunity to take a sick children to the doctor, and listen that we shouldn’t worry, that the child is only nervous, and have being given some mild medicine for it.

What did the doctor mean when he told us: stay calm, he’s only nervous?

He wanted to tell us: the boy doesn’t have a stroke, neither an ulcer, arteriosclerosis, or cancer; he is only nervous.

But it is also certain that the same doctor in another opportunity will tell us that, not less than ninety percent of the illnesses the medical science knows are originated by nervous tension excesses, by stress.

I always say that stress is not only the most common illness in our time, but probably the worst of all.

Why is it so? Because suppose that you could measure stress in inches, and that I have stress zero when the meter is located in zero.

In a normal existence the meter ascends very frequently. Let us suppose that it arrives to seven or eight inches high, and in that level, I begin to have headaches, or stomachaches, or pain in my back muscles, or pain in my shoulders muscles, or in the neck, or insomnia.

So let us suppose that when the meter arrives to eight inches we have some of the most frequent manifestations of nervous tension excess.

As you can suppose, I will go to see the doctor so that he gives me a medicine; or I will begin to take gymnastic classes, or I will begin to practice violent sports, or go to massage sessions.

But certainly I will do something to take off the annoying consequences of nervous tension excesses.

Suppose that as a consequence of one or more of those solutions, my nervous tension begins to lower until it arrives to the point where I feel healthy again, maybe as you feel right now: perfectly healthy.

But if we look at the nervous tension meter, we would possibly see that it didn’t arrive again to zero, but rather it is parked, let us say to the height of two or three inches. That is to say that I continue having nervous tension, although I don’t perceive any kind of consequences.

This can perfectly happen and in fact happens. And it was discovered in 1908 by the physiologist Edmund Jacobson, who told us that there are two classes of nervous tension.

The one that you can feel, the one that bothers

The residual nervous tension that doesn’t bother or feels in any way, but that is in fact the mother of all the illnesses; and only needs time to produce its destructive effect.

We could compare the residual nervous tension effects, with the effect of a drop of water on a stone.

Let us suppose that we allow a drop of water to fall over a stone during a whole day; if we go then to contemplate the stone, what will we see? Nothing.

And if instead of leaving it alone one day we allow it to run a week, what will we see? Nothing

And if instead of one week we leave it running a month what will we see? Nothing again

But if we allow it to run during a couple of years, then we WILL see that the stone has a cavity.

But we checked the stone a couple of times and nothing happened, would this maybe mean that later drops of water were stronger than the first ones?

Evidently the answer is NO, what really happened is that from the beginning, each drop of water produced its effect in the stone, but an uncounted number of drops are needed, so that you can see the effect.

The same happens with nervous tension. When we say that we believe to be perfectly healthy but are not, we mean that stress, nervous tension’s excess, isn’t felt; but if we give it enough time, the same as the drop of water, will finish producing a deep damage in our organism.

One of the biggest causes of hip and back pain is the psoas muscle. These problems include but are not limited to lower back pain, sciatica, disc problems, knee pain, pelvic tilting, digestive problems, infertility, and menstruation pain. You could also experience scoliosis, a difference in the length of your legs, kyphosis, sacroiliac pain and accentuated lumbar lordosis.

What is the psoas muscle?

It is the main muscle that allows your spinal column and hips to flex and move. The psoas major muscle is one of the thickest, longest and larges muscles in the body measuring about 16 inches long. The psoas muscles in animals, is known as the tenderloin muscle. They travel from the lower spine starting at the 12th thoracic vertebrate. This muscle starts on the vertebral bodies and transverse processes of the lumbar vertebras and runs down and across the pelvis ending at lesser trochanter deep within the upper groin. The fibers of the psoas muscle combine with the iliacus muscle to form the iliopsoas. The iliacus muscle starts inside the pelvis and attaches to the femur with the psoas.

What is the function of the psoas muscle?

The amount of functions that the psoas muscle performs is astounding. The psoas is the major walking muscle since it works with the hip and thigh to allow it to flex. If you are sitting the psoas muscle stabilizes and gives your midsection or truck the balance it needs to continue to sit. When you see dancers perform graceful movements and football players running the field they are using the psoas muscle to be able to lift their knees. The psoas muscle helps stabilize the pelvis in a neutral position and allows it to maintain structural balance.

What are the most common pain symptoms of an irritated psoas muscle?

Prolonged sitting can cause the psoas muscle to become contracted. This contraction could alter the biomechanics of the lumbar vertebra, pelvis and hips. Even moderate contractions of the psoas can be responsible for pain that is down the front of the thigh and low back stiffness and pain.

How can chiropractic help?

Chiropractic treatments can help sooth and relieve the pain caused by a shortened psoas muscle in many ways. Often just having your back adjusted by a chiropractor will relieve your back and hip pain. There are also advanced massage techniques and home stretching methods that greatly decrease the tension on these muscles and provide significant lasting relief. This combination of treatments quickly relieves often stubborn cases of low back and hip pain.

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.

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.
