In Greek, "osteochondrosis" literally means "bone and cartilage damage" (osteon - bone, chondros - cartilage). Currently, in the countries of the former Union, back pain and headache associated with osteochondrosis are complained by every fourth person over 30 years of age. And women are sick more often than men. Although the deposition of calcium salts in the cartilage and ligaments during osteochondrosis takes place, the essence and insidiousness of this disease is that the bone is destroyed, the flexibility of the cartilaginous and ligamentous apparatus of the spine is lost. However, this can be avoided or at least alleviated. And it is possible, with the right approach, and completely cured, without resorting to the help of doctors. So, osteochondrosis: popular methods of treatment - the topic of conversation for today.
How is the spinal cord damaged?
Intervertebral disks function as shock absorbers that actively absorb and release water. Over the years, they lose their elasticity, shrink, decrease in size and can not fully resist the stresses on the spine. And that more and more bends. The body of the disc protrudes and presses on the nearby nerves and vessels. Further, the pathological process involves muscles, ligaments, vessels, nerves - all lying around the disk of education. So-called spines appear, and gradually the spine loses its flexibility. A constant compression of nerves and blood vessels leads to a violation of the blood supply to the brain. Hence - dizziness, headaches, numbness of the hands and other symptoms of osteochondrosis. Such an interpretation of this disease is given by doctors. And what do folk healers say?
The reason for the disease is that we eat too much and randomly. The body is not able to digest and use for the benefit of so much food and withdraw unnecessary slag. These toxic products crystallize and for years, accumulate in joints, spine for decades. There are pains in the cervicothoracic, lumbar spine, the destruction of intervertebral discs begins. There is an osteochondrosis. And not even the age of it is to blame, but we ourselves.
Intervertebral hernia and back pain also appear from the lack of vitamins and minerals, especially silicon, weakness (dystrophy) of certain muscle groups from lifting excessively heavy weights. The right way of life and proper nutrition can get rid of this problem. But you have to start thinking about this at a young age.
Traditional methods of treatment
To dissolve salts and slags, folk methods of treatment include the use of various medicinal plants, for example, sunflower roots. To do this, from the fall they harvest thick parts of the roots (small hairy roots are cut and discarded). They are washed, dried and then crushed (sometimes it is more convenient to make an ax, because the roots are strongly lignified). Decoction of sunflower roots 1 tbsp. crushed roots boil in 3 liters of water for two minutes and drink all the liquid for 2-3 days. Roots are again poured 3 liters of water and boiled for 5 minutes. Drink within 2-3 days. Then they boil for the third time the same sunflower roots in the same amount of water, only for 10-15 minutes. To drink them it is necessary for 2-3 days. Then take a new portion of the roots and repeat everything. Decoction of the roots of sunflower should be drunk in large doses for a month (maybe even longer). Salts at the same time start to go out right away, only after the first two weeks of taking the decoction. Well dissolve and salt the grass sporis, half-pala, horsetail, watermelon crusts and pumpkin tails, bearberry leaves and sapelnik roots.
When osteochondrosis, one must constantly adhere to certain rules:
- to sleep on a hard bed, with a sheet of plywood 15-20 mm thick under the mattress;
- Try not to get sick with colds;
- Avoid lifting weights;
- completely eliminate from the diet alcohol;
- every time, sitting down at the table, do not forget about vitamins (boiled, stewed, fried food they practically do not contain);
- engage in exercise for 20-25 minutes every day.
Stretching of the spine and mantle oil
When osteochondrosis, you must do stretching the spine. Hang on the horizontal bar, bend your legs and swing to the right and left. Move slowly, gently, without jerking, especially during the initial period. To get to his feet after the horizontal bar is also gently, neatly. Stretch the spine and you can lie in bed. Just take your left hand back, and push the heel of your right foot forward, bending your foot towards you, then pull out your right arm and push the heel of your left foot forward. In every joint of the human body, nature has a reserve of flexibility, which is facilitated by the so-called synovial fluid or, more simply, lubrication. Years of life do not affect the quantity and quality of this fluid. There is only one reason that deprives the joints of mobility, they are crystals of toxic acids. They are postponed with the course of life in the joints and spine.
In some ways, the replacement of synovial fluid is the hunter's oil. The fact is that the intervertebral cartilage does not wear out, but only shrinks and shrinks. Imagine a sponge the size of 50x50x50. If it is loaded with a weight of 50 kg, it will shrink and become a thin plate. But if you pour water on it after lifting the load, it will return to its original form again. Hypericum oil, as one of the traditional methods of treatment, affects the intervertebral cartilage and discs, like water on a sponge. To do this, first carefully stretch the spine in the sacrum in the direction of the legs from 2 to 5 times (stretching facilitates oil access to the intervertebral discs and helps them straighten) until the muscle tension relaxes, and then rub the oil. My invention - rubbing by special technology. This is an effective remedy for the treatment of osteochondrosis, intervertebral hernias, radiculitis, joint diseases (after several rubbing joints permanently cease to hurt). Take in equal parts collected during flowering fresh grass comfrey medicinal, cauliflower erect, horsetail field (or hibernating) and coyote gorcvet. Top up with a liter jar and fill with turpentine turpentine (turpentine oil). Insist 10 days, strain, add as much (in volume) fat (pork, bear or badger) fat, 50 drops of iodine and half of the amount of aloe vera juice (before letting it through the meat grinder, the leaves last 10 days in the refrigerator) . All mixed, five more days to insist, and the flour is ready.
Herbs used for cooking trituration, interfere with the deposition of salts, the formation of kidney stones, bile and urinary bladder, reduce blood pressure, and also compensate for the lack of silicon in the body. The first time to do the rub gently, to check the reaction of the skin.
Next, daily 10-14 days to rub once a day at night. Every day for 3-5 days, use only zhivoroboynoe oil twice a day, in the mornings and evenings. Attention! Without preliminary stretching of the spine, hunter's oil does not work. In case of complex chronic diseases, repeat the treatment described above 2-3 times and necessarily finish it by rubbing the herbaceous oil.
Healing broths
In the fight against osteochondrosis, folk methods of treatment are also various decoctions. The external application of peanut butter and hawthorn oil will be more effective if during a year it is combined with drinking decoctions or infusions of sporichia, horsetail of the field (or horsetail of wintering), half-pala, sabelnik.
With diseases of the spine, you need to drink a decoction of medicinal sage for a long time. There are many essential oils in this plant, but they should not be present in the drink. Therefore, the leaves of sage should be cooked exactly three minutes. During this time, essential oils evaporate, and the broth is saturated with vital enzymes necessary for endocrine glands, spinal cord and intervertebral cartilage.
Infusion. 1 tbsp. chopped sage leaves cook for 3 minutes. in 2 tbsp. water, insist in a sealed container in the heat of half an hour. Drink to 1/3 of st. three times a day.
