Osteoporosis & the Spinal Flush

Question:
If a person has osteoporosis, should I avoid clearing the neurolymphatic reflex points along the spine?

Answer:
You may continue to massage these places, but just be a bit more gentle as you do so, and listen for any feedback that the person might give you. As you probably know, these points are tender in most people because they become clogged with toxins and stagnant energy. Massaging them helps clear the toxins and gets the energy flowing more freely, which will always benefit the person’s health.

The two cautions here are 1) that the physical pressure you use does not exacerbate any previous injuries or vulnerabilities, and 2) that the person’s energy system is not so weak or disorganized that stirring up toxins overwhelms the system’s ability to eliminate those toxins.

Simply having the person you are working with let you know how much pressure you can apply generally addresses the first caution. For the second, a general balancing such as the "Daily Energy Routine" (Chapter 3 of Energy Medicine) before you do the full spinal flush is usually sufficient.

If the neurolymphatic reflex points are still too painful for any real massage, place one finger on a back neurolymphatic point and the finger of your other hand on the corresponding point in front. Use a back and forth see-saw motion, pressing in on one point as you release on the other. This is much easier for even a highly sensitive individual to tolerate

Gray Hair

Question:
Recently you mentioned that you knew some herbs and other substances that are good for preventing and reversing gray hair (and other hair problems). Would you share them with us here?

Answer:
Absolutely! But before we start, I want it on the record and understood that you should energy test anything I recommend here, using energy localizing. Always remember that no two people are the same. What may work for one person won't necessarily work for another.

Also, rotate substances. The body habituates so that a remedy that was working may stop working. If you give your body a break from it, it will often start working again. Energy testing shows you when you need to rotate.

The following describes what I have found to be useful in preventing – or sometimes even reversing – gray hair.

A Native American woman told my aunt to take the mineral copper. She did, and her hair came back from gray. Make sure you energy test this, because you can overdose on copper. Plus we can't let ourselves be fooled into thinking that what worked for one person will work for another.

When I had multiple sclerosis, I found a few herbs, minerals, and vitamins that were helpful. Pantothenic acid not only helped my toes not be numb and swollen, but I believe pantothenic acid, along with iodine, also helped keep my hair from falling out, which it was doing in huge handfuls when I was sick.

In addition to copper, iodine, and pantothenic acid, I've seen benefit from B12, chlorophyll, and DMAE, as well as coconut oil put directly on the hair. Massaging mehndi (a henna) into the scalp is done in India to prevent grayness. Because hair needs fresh sources of protein, collagen can also be helpful. Again, energy test for any of these.

Stress and genetics play a large role in the decline of the tiny hair pigment cells. With their decline, you lose the pigment color in your hair. But energy work can influence this.

Your body is always losing and replacing its hair. A normal hair cycle should lead to more hair. Growth cycles are related to energy balances, so when the energy between head and hair has gone awry, hair graying and hair loss is often a result.

Factors that interfere with the cycle – like medication, illness, infection, or chemicals – have the potential to stop hair from being formed properly. It can get dry, it can go gray, and it can fall out. Balancing the energies in the head can counter this (use Neurovasculars, Crown Pull, Rooster Comb Hold, meridians, etc.)

Problems with the thyroid or pituitary glands can also cause graying and baldness, so test and balance the associated meridians. A very simple technique is to tape a magnet or two onto your hairbrush so the south side faces your scalp. The energy of a magnet's south side stimulates growth. Many people have shown me positive results after I suggested they do this.

Not only was color restored to graying hair when using the magnet, but their hair grew in thicker. When this approach works, it is usually because there is a sebaceous gland problem. In fact, simply massaging the sebaceous glands on the scalp can also help with hair issues.

A Native American woman gave me the following technique. I have known this to work for many people, and I have now seen it in many cultures. Join your hands together like you are praying. Keeping your fingertips joined to each other, pull your fingers inward to create an "m" shape. Then buff your nails together in up-and-down circles. Don't do the thumbs (this causes facial hair).

There are nerve endings under the nails that go directly to your scalp, and it stimulates meridian flow. The nails reflect and affect liver, blood, and energy. If the liver, blood, and kidney essence is plentiful, then the hair is thick, healthy, and retains its color.

To close, one special story. The pitch black hair of my wonderful old friend, Jimmy Wong, went pure white after a heart attack. He used a Chinese herb, He Shou Wu, and it returned to black.

Alzheimer’s Disease

Question:
I recently attended a seminar at the Omega Institute and heard Wayne Dyer talking about healing through the use of energy medicine. Is it possible to treat Alzheimer's using energy techniques? My Mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s 3? years ago, and she has been deteriorating rapidly. She has taken Aricept, Cognex, and other medications, but none of them seem to have helped at all. Please let me know if there has been any success using energy medicine. I would do anything to heal her or at least reverse the progression. Thank you for any information or guidance you can provide.

Answer:
My heart goes out to you about the excruciating situation facing you and your mother. In my experience, "Alzheimer's" may involve any of a variety of dysfunctional energy patterns. Energetically, it is a single name for a variety of disorders that have similar symptoms. While there is still no cure, some of the patterns are more responsive to energy work than others, and I have seen Alzheimer’s symptoms diminish with its use. However, without seeing your mother, I cannot even begin to guess what is involved for her. What I can do is make some suggestions that have helped in certain instances, would generally be beneficial, and never harmful, and you can see if they are of any value. You would probably know within three or four weeks of applying them daily.

If the problem is that there is not enough "space" in her head (constrictions in the musculature and circulatory system as well as in the energy pathways) for oxygen, cerebral spinal fluid, blood, and energy to flush through her brain, then energy work can be of value.

A simple procedure for treating these constrictions is called the "crown pull," which is part of the 5-minute "Daily Energy Routine" presented in Chapter 3 of Energy Medicine. Do the "crown pull" for her as described there, and extend it all over her head, especially rubbing the "lumps" at the top back of her neck and base of her skull (these happen to be triple warmer points).

Then, "pump up" her cerebrospinal fluid (Energy Medicine p. 208, softcover edition only) and hold her neurovasculars (p. 217) and notice which neurovascular points seem to feel the best to her. Do these regularly, along with the crown pull and pump up.

Chances are that in addition to being constricted, her energies are also neurologically disorganized. The "three thumps" (p. 63), the "Wayne Cook" procedure (p. 73), the "homolateral crossover" (p. 233), and the "hook-up" (p. 119) all address this.

I am truly hoping these suggestions can be of help to her. If they are even slightly, it is a good sign. You might then see if there is an energy worker in your area who could work with her regularly.
