Posted by Kero at Sunday, November 11, 2007
Hi everyone! It's been a great weekend. I finished three reviews today, and I got five more left to do. I will continue tomorrow because i need to prepare for dinner in just awhile. Before I go, I leave you again my clippings on alternative health.



U is for Urine Therapy

This certainly isn't everyone's cup of wee, but drinking your own urine is believed by some to prevent and cure illness, boost the immune system, and generally cleanse the system. The health benefits from taking the piss, however, doesn't have any solid scientific backing, although it is not thought to be dangerous.

V is for Visceral Manipulation
This technique is based on the belief that the body's internal organs are in a state of continuous motion, and that complete health is only attainable when the motion between the organs and their connective tissues is stable. Using manual pressure, practitioners claim they can relieve digestive problems, incontinence, chronic pain, and physical trauma.

W is for Wave Therapy
This is the collective term for therapies based on waves. Phototherapy, for example, involves exposure to different wavelengths of light, and can be used to treat acne, seasonal affective disorder and sleep problems. Sound therapy, meanwhile uses different tones to exercise the ear muscles, allegedly 'recharging' the brain, thereby reducing tiredness. Finally, magnetotheraphy uses electromagnetic energy, often from magnetic bracelets, which is said to to improve blood circulation, reduing pain and symptoms of illness.
