Avatar f tn Would like to know if there is any massage techniques or pressure points to help relax my 15 month old. He is often moody and uptight,(lol) but honestly doesn't sleep well consistently and wld like to try anything.
230972 tn?1224470126 While reflexology is best known as a specialized type of foot massage, it is performed on the hands as well. Reflexology is similar to acupressure because it applies pressure to specific points on the body, but reflexology doesn’t work with the body’s energy flow in the same way as acupressure. Reflexology is based on certain reflex areas on the feet and hands that directly affect the organs and muscles of the rest of the body.
Avatar n tn Of course in extreme cases people do have to use compression garments, but there are other techniques that you can be treated with and shown to help yourself as well.

Avatar f tn there are many ways that include deep breathing excercises (breathe in for a count of 4 and out for the same). Tapping techniques where you tap on some specific trigger points on your wrist and forehead, NO CAFFEINE and cut waaaay back on sugar to little or none. You also need to RELAX! Find ways to calm your mind and body however you can, make time for yourself in a quiet room and do your breathing techniques or meditate.

Avatar m tn All was good until 2000 when the pain in my foot and a wadded up sock feeling in the ball of my foot started again. Since that time I have been having pain in my lower back, hip, thigh, calf and foot. I have tried various meds and the only thing that has given relief is vicodin, I have been taking (3) 5/500 per day for the past 8 yrs. I have also tried PT, traction, epidural cortisone shots, acupuncture, massage therapy, hydrotherapy.
Avatar f tn It really decides on the type of birth you intend or want to have. I never took classes, and intended a natural birth. Due to extreme pain though, I got an epidural, and there really is no technique to that.

Avatar m tn Hi, recently I went to a massage parlor for foot massage. The massage lady seem to just after having sex with her client. I did not know she if she had washed her hand, immediatly she massage my foot for 45 mins after finishing with her fat client. When she had finished foot massage, I realised that there were some sores wounded skins on top of my foot far away from the toes.
Avatar n tn If you can try pampering yourself today, go out for a good pedicure and maybe get your hair done...even if it's just a wash and style. You'll feel great and...
Avatar f tn I've had the hot stone massage and I tolerated it well. I hope you enjoy yourself and update us on how it was!
1184961 tn?1292574076 Yes & it does help, only it's expensive. My husband has been unemployed for 2 years so we have to cut back on expenses. I do get the massages when I can though. I wish I could get them on a regular basis. I failed to say that I also havae fibromyalgia so the massages does wonders for that when I can get them regularly. I haev 2 friends who are massage therapists who do give me discounts right now, so I am blessed in that respect. Thanks for reminding me of this.
12719749 tn?1426869711 just a question..no bashing...what is the difference between your water breaking on its own (the affects) and breaking your water yourself? I am 2 cm and 50% effaced and am in a lot of pain but the hospital won't keep me unless I am 4cm. feedback would help a lot.
Avatar f tn What they all said. For instant relief put your foot on something cold. I keep a big glass water jug we keep our change in next to my bed. When the pain hits I put the arch of my foot on it. I don't know why,but. it works.
Avatar n tn During this time I had struggled with painful sciatica and once on a while would feel tingling sensations on my toes on my left foot. After many months the sciatica resolved itself as did the tingling sensations. Over these years sciatica would pop up if I aggravated my lower back and the tinging of the toes would show up here and there but never constant. Over the years I would feel a subtle vibrating feeling on my left foot but it was not frequent.
