Thread Name: BS: walking with a cane - how?
Subject: RE: BS: walking with a cane - how?
Using a cane - will frequently transfer the PAIN - from your lower extremities (foot, ankle, knee, hip) and into your shoulder or back (serious back potential.)

The lean, the twist, the un-natural, off-balance pressure is multiplied as it travels the elbow, sholder, leverages and then into the spinal discs.

Move slower, but move straight and erect and well balanced.

(some aspects of the "healing professions" (chiropractors, herbalists, napreopaths) are only there to extenuate or chronic-ize your condition - if you are not ill - they do not make money.

Sincerely,
Gargoyle

You are your own best therapist IF,/b> you want to be....many who are lonely seek the healing touch of a human hand out of boredom and from an artificial, disconnected society and an authentic human skin craving need for a relationship.
