A wholistic chiropractor should be able to do this. That's who did mine a few times............but it hurts!!! (It doesn't last long, though, and it beats surgery.) You lay flat on your back. They stand at your head, reach over your body, put their hands up under your sternum and pull towards them. It pulls your stomach and everything back up where it's supposed to be and rids the hernia. Mine comes back over, and over though. (I can't afford to go back.) I also have the pregnant looking, hard belly.

That's good to know! But you'd never get my mother to do that . . . She's reached a point where she won't do anything! Even leave her room to go for a drive. . . Everything is just too much trouble. I bought an amplifier and headphones so we could talk to her without shouting. . . She won't wear her hearing aids . . . She didn't want the amplifier either . . . She has a room mate she has completely ignored for a couple years. . . Very nice lady! Her mind is pretty good, she stays in a good mood . . . but she's given up and is just waiting to die. She's in La-la land from the medications she's given for pain. I hope I never find myself in her situation!
