Re: polarity therapy and decreased pain-Lana/Tanja

Hi Cindys!!! :0

Can you remind me what polarity is for sure?

----------------------------------

I'm not a Cindy but since I started the whole Polarity thing on the

list to begin with, I will jump in.

Cindy H is referring primarily to the X technique, with some hand

placement variations tossed in that she and I have gone over off

list.

Cindy C is also referring to the X technique but also to some

additional " balancing " releases. When I was back in Detroit we did

some full body work on Dylan as well, both acupressure and polarity.

What is Polarity used for? There are a whole bunch of things you

can use it for. Specifically, I use it personally for pain

management with any joint. I also use it to treat sublux or

separation problems and routinely put ribs back in and do minor

spinal adjustments with it. These uses, however, are just the tip

of the iceberg as to what you can do with it.

Very briefly for now, things like acupuncture, acupressure, shiatsu

and Thai massage all work with the meridian structure of traditional

Chinese medicine. Polarity works with this structure as well but it

is more focused on the Chakra energy structure of the Indian

Ayurvedic tradition. One simple way to describe it is that

acupuncture and acupressure are the bodywork pieces of traditional

Chinese medicine and Polarity is the bodywork piece of Ayurvedic

medicine.

THANKS, Mike! I really do want to make sure I'm doing the X

technique correctly. By the way, when my Mike was doing the stuff

you sent to me, in only a couple days, I was doing so much better! So

THANK YOU again!!!! Is what he was doing the X technique? I think

it was, but I'm not sure. You sent me some numbers of where he

should put his fingers.

Mike, you sure are a wealth of information and a God send!

Thanks again!

Love Lana
