Re: cayenne linament

[Guest guest]

It was quite useful for one client I had. She had upper neck and

back pains constantly. When I touched and manipulated the area the

flesh felt " stagnant " , as if there was very little flow through the

area. Looking at her body language she was hunched foward at the

shoulders. Following a hunch turned out she never exercised and was

always looking down and foward at work. To get more circulation in

there I started with massaging the cayenne linament in and gave some

simple towel exercises to get those muscle masses moving and things

flowing again. For about 3 days a couple of times a day I'ld rub that

in and help her move those areas. I think I was rubbing some pain

analgesic stuff in there too after the cayenne, poplar bud oil I

think. After 3 days of that the crisis was over and she was

recovering without the extreme stuff. It helped greatly to get that

stagnancy moving.

Another use I have is rubbing it in before doing another external

treatment. My thinking is that it helps the pores of the skin open up

and the followup treatment to go in quicker. Does it? Well, I

haven't done a controlled study yet to discern a difference. Makes

sense though to have that skin redder before adding the followup.

I've used it straight without any other herbs on sore necks and

backs combined with massage. Folks report feeling some improvement,

though it's not one of those magical instant gratification cures that

I like to hear. The cayenne tinctured in vodka works better than the

vinegar in this application.

Note to males: Wash hands throughly BEFORE using the toilet

after using this stuff. Otherwise you'll feel the healing power of

herbs indeed. And if you need to rinse off in the shower after doing

so, use cold water NOT hot water that causes you pores to open up and

even more heat to go in. WOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!
