FLUSH OUT THE FLU
With the Spinal Flush by Gwenn Bonnell Gwenn Bonnell here with a timely article for flu season…
The holidays are upon us, with added stress, more sugar, and less rest…a great recipe for the flu. Are you going to let the flu holds you hostage this year? Or are you ready to be more proactive and stop the flu before it gets hold of you with The Spinal Flush? This is a simple kinesiology technique that helps move toxins out of your system and often gets you feeling well…literally overnight! My husband often comes home after a business trip feeling a bit worn out. The stress of traveling, interrupted sleep, and the toxic air in the plane wears on his system. After a spinal flush gets rid of all those toxins, he'll wake up feeling refreshed and energized. The Spinal Flush involves massaging "neurolymphatic points" along the spine. Massaging these points move toxins out of the muscles, cleans the lymph system, and injects fresh energy through the whole body. If a cold is coming on, a good Spinal Flush can stop it in its tracks. As you do the Spinal Flush, don't be concerned if you are hitting the exact points along the spine. There are so many of these points right next to each other that as you go down the spine it's impossible to miss them. Pay extra attention to points that are sore by spending a few extra seconds massaging them. Even if the tenderness doesn't immediately disappear, you are clearing the congestion. It's definitely delicious to have a partner share the Spinal Flush with you. I'll also tell you how to do this for yourself. THE SPINAL FLUSH The person receiving the flush needs to keep their body in a stable position. Have them either lie face down, or stand a few feet away from a wall, placing their palms on the wall and leaning forward into it for support. 1. Starting at the neck and moving down to the bottom of the spine, massage the points down both sides of the spine using your thumbs or middle fingers and applying body weight to get strong pressure. Massage each point for at least 5 seconds (more if sore). 2. Then go down the center of the spine, and massage in the space between each vertebra. Again, start at the neck and move down to the sacrum, and stay at each point at least 5 seconds. Just move the skin up and down or in a circular motion with strong pressure. 3. Repeat the first massage, starting at the neck and massaging the points down the sides of the spine. 4. Finish by sweeping the energies down their body. With open hands place your palms a few inches above their shoulders, and then sweep the energy all the way down their back, their legs and off their feet. Do this sweep two or three times.
Although it's more difficult, you can massage the points on your back that you can reach. 1. Reach over your shoulders, starting at the neck, and massage the points on the side of your spine as far down your back as comfortable. If you find any points that are tender, work these for a few more seconds. 2. Then reach around your waist, as high up in the center of your
back as comfortable, and massage the points on either side of your
spine. Spend about 5 seconds (or more if the point is tender) on each
point as you travel down the spine 3. Begin again, reaching over your shoulders, and massage the notch between each vertebra. Begin at your neck, down to the center of your back. 4. Then reach around your waist as high up in the center of your back as possible and continue massaging the space between each vertebra until you finish at the tailbone. The spinal flush has an added benefit: it immediately reduces built-up
stress and takes the edge off emotional overreactions. It's a great
holiday gift for yourself, and
especially wonderful to share with a loved one :-)
