BRONCHIAL ASTHMA

Bronchial asthma is an allergic disease, which appears as recurrent bouts of asphyxia.

Dry and tormenting cough is in most cases the first portent of the coming bout of bronchial asthma. Attacks of asphyxia begin all of a sudden and rapidly aggravate; they last from several minutes to several hours or even days (in complicated cases).
During the attack an asthmatic cannot move freely but usually has to remain standing or sitting with his hands resting on the table. He experiences hurried whizzing breathing, with inhalation much shorter than exhalation.

In slight attacks of bronchial asthma the patients normally do not call ambulance but use special drugs intended to terminate the bouts.
An urgent medical consultation is a must in case of the first attack of bronchial asthma. If the patient is suffering from a protracted, several hour or several day long asthma bout that can not be cured by ordinary methods (such state is termed asthmatic status), an ambulance should be urgently called, as his life is definite]y endangered. Intensive therapy in a hospital is then essential.

First aid administration by the Su Jok therapy methods in bronchial asthma involves linear massage in the standard hand or foot correspondence system with a finger or any massage tool or whatever else handy. The projection of the respiratory tract should be stimulated from the area of correspondence to the lungs to that of the nose, which will promote better sputum discharge.

Since the diaphragm takes part in respiration, the area of correspondence to the entire upper diaphragm line needs massage as well. There is a point near the base of the first metacarpal bone that corresponds the upper diaphragm line and whose stimulation is especially helpful.In many cases the bronchial asthma bouts are completely done away by means of these manipulations very simple indeed.

Salt Lamp

Just as we choose to drink bottled water because of it's purity, the quality of the air we breathe is essential to our health and well being.

The quality of the air we breathe depends on the kind of electrical charge and concentration of the ions. The environment we live in today has far more sources of positive ions than in the past, creating an electrical imbalance in the air. These surplus Positive Ions are produced by various human activities and electrical appliances; e.g. TV's, radios, transmitters, radar systems, computers, high-voltage networks, heating and cooling systems, car exhaust and cigarette fumes, all of which are contributing reasons for the deterioration of our physical and emotional well being.

In nature Negative Ions are created by means of wind, sunlight, surf, waterfalls and rainstorms and as such, negative ions can be found in their billions on mountain tops, waterfalls and by the sea. They give the air its invigorating freshness, which is so good for us, they are the unseen "vitamins of the air"..A series of scientific studies show that Salt Crystal Lamps can increase the negative ion count by up to 300% in their vicinity.

General Information About Angina Pectoris

Angina pectoris is one of the forms of the Ischemic heart disease. The cause for its development is the coronary atherosclerosis (arteries supplying blood to the heart).

Angina pectoris always occurs with spasms. So it clearly marks start and end. The spasm continues 4-15 minutes but sometimes it can last for couple of hours and this may lead to a myocardial infarction. The spasm occurs due to the not adequate level of the blood supply in the coronary artery and the needs of the heart muscle (myocard).

Typical of the spasm is the oppressive and strangling pain behind the breast bone (sternum). Often the pain can radiate out to the left arm, left shoulder, shoulder blade, jaw and even to the teeth. Usually the pain involves a sense of fear.

Sometimes the angina pectoris spasm is not connected with pain but with a sense of discomfort, heaviness, constriction, numbness or strangulation.

There are two types of angina pectoris depending on the circumstances by which it occurs - angina pectoris at stress and angina pectoris at rest. The angina at stress occurs in connection with physical or emotional exertion. The angina at rest is not connected with physical exertion. It occurs at night and often involves an increased shortness of breath.

The angina spasm is cured with a tablet of nitroglycerin under the tongue. The medicine relieves the pain in 2-3 minutes. If within five minutes the pain is still strong, a second tablet of nitroglycerin is taken.

TREATMENT OF ANGINA PECTORIS SPASM WITH SU JOK THERAPY

Angina pectoris is life-threatening disease. The spasm often occurs unexpectedly, on unusual places where the possibility of using nitroglycerin doesn’t exist and where a qualified medical service is not available. In this case the using of su jok can save your or somebody else's life .

Position of the heart zone

To cope with the angina pectoris spasm you have to know where the heart projection (correspondence zone) on the ha nds is. The Main correspondence system on the left hand is used.

Look carefully at the illustration given above. You can understand how the heart is projected as you just put your hands mentally in the place of the illustration.

More detailed explanation of the heart zone position:

The thorax is projected on the palms of both hands in the area outlined by the life line and the bottom part of the thumb.
On the illustration the axle line dividing the thorax in two is marked with a straight red line. It is drawn from the middle of the thumb's bottom part to the middle of the wrist. The diaphragm is marked with a red twisted line .

The left side of the thorax is projected on the left half of the two palms (left and right are defined by raised up fingers and turned forward palms). The right side of the thorax is projected on the right half of the palms.

After you know how the thorax is projected on the palms you can easily define where the heart is. It is on the left half of the projection of the thorax and its bottom side comes into contact with the line of the diaphragm.

When the heart is diseased in its correspondence zones on the palms, a pain point or area appears. If the disease has affected only a small region – the pain point is small (proportional to the size of the diseased area). If the disease has affected the entire heart – the entire correspondence zones of the heart on the two palms are painful. The treatment of the heart diseases with su jok therapy consists exactly in finding these pain points and areas and stimulating them with massage, moxa or needles .

Technique of coping with the angina pectoris spasm through su jok therapy
By the first symptoms of such a spasm it is necessary that a tablet of nitroglycerin (if available) is placed under the tongue and a deep massage, with slight rotating movements is done on the entire heart zone on the left hand. The massage is carried out with a diagnostic probe, with the thumb of the other hand or with tools available – the blunt end of a pen, key etc. The pressure must be strong, there must be a feeling of pain in the zone. It is not necessary the most painful zone to be found. The entire heart zone is massaged.

As a rule within 3-5 minutes of massage (even without nitroglycerin) the spasm pain abates considerably or is totally relieved.

Subsequently for prophylaxis and healing of the disease is good about ten moxa warming up procedures to be carried out in the heart correspondence zones on the both hands. The zones are warmed up every day for 15-20 minutes. In this case it is better the most painful area in the heart zones to be found and the warming up to be concentrated there.

The moxa warming up by this disease gives extremely good results. Normally after one or two courses of 10 warmings the spasms become shorter and rarer or completely disappear.

Are Cell Phones Affecting Your Brain?

It's always by your side, and when it's not, you are chatting away with it by your ear. Cell phones have made keeping in touch much easier, but what are they doing to your health?
A new study by Italian researchers finds that the electromagnetic fields emitted by cell phones may not be as innocuous as they seem, but they may not be all that harmful, either. Ultimately, it seems, cells phones do change your brain's activity, but whether this helps or harms is still not understood.
For the study, researchers fitted 15 men between the ages of 20 and 36 with a specialized helmet that contained a cell phone near the left ear. While wearing the helmets, the cell phone was turned on for a period of 45 minutes without the knowledge of the participants. The helmet measured the brain activity of the participants both while the phone was turned on and while it was off.
While the phones were on, there was increased brain activity in the cortical region of the left side of the brain, which is responsible for movement and language. This region of the brain remained in the excited state for as long as one hour after the phones were turned off.
It is common for cell phone users to use their phones for a similar length of time, certainly over the course of the day. But it is not known whether this increased brain activity would be beneficial or harmful to a person.
Electromagnetic fields, such as those emitted by cell phones, have been used by doctors in the past to treat migraines and even depression. But there has also been some connection between electromagnetic fields and an increased number of seizures in people with epilepsy.
"Theoretically, it might be both dangerous in all those conditions in which cortical excitability is [already] enhanced, like in epilepsy, or it might be beneficial in all those conditions with a need for higher excitability, as in post-stroke recovery or Alzheimer's disease," said Dr. Paolo M. Rossini, professor of neurology at the University Campus-Bio-Medico in Rome, Italy
If there is a risk to using cell phones, Rossini states that more research is needed to determine which people should limit their use and who should maybe avoid cell phones altogether.
"More research is needed in order to produce safety guidelines, particularly for 'at risk' populations like people with different kind of brain damage, children etc.," said Rossini
