Self-applied trigger point therapy is a sure solution for frozen shoulder, bursitis, tendinitis, and tennis elbow. It works for many kinds of muscle and joint pain. This therapy worked so well for me that I wrote a book about it. You can go to my website and read Chapter One of my book, which tells about my successful self-treatment of my own frozen shoulder. You’ll find plenty of detail on that page about the cause of frozen shoulder. Self-therapy took only about 4 weeks and I had significant relief from the first day.

Hi Joe. Your experience interests me and I’d like to know more. When did you begin the purges (how long have you been doing them)? Do you still have pain? If so, is it constant or does it come and go? Where do you feel pain? Just in the gallbladder area? Or also in the back and other areas of the abdomen? I’m a ”calibrator” too, but instead of weighing my stones I’ve been keeping track of the volume. I’ve done 19 purges and so far I’ve expelled 2600 stones, amounting to nearly 10 cubic inches, which is about 164 cubic centimeters, 5.5 ounces, or almost 3/4 cup. It’s enough to make a bal ...

If your pain is on the outer side of your ankle, the most common cause would be trigger points (small contraction knots) in the peroneus longus muscle on the outer side of your lower leg. (Trigger points characteristically send pain to other places.) If these trigger points are the cause of your pain, you can treat them yourself with massage. Press in with both thumbs on the outer side of your lower leg about a hand’s width below your knee. Search about a three-inch circle. If it hurts there, you’ve found a trigger point. Use repeated strokes, an inch or two in length, with as much pressur ...

Have you wondered how to tell whether you’ve gotten all your stones out? I don’t know whether I can answer that critical question, but I think I’m on the way to figuring it out. I’ve done 14 gallbladder purges over the last six months and have kept a pretty good record of the number and size of the stones (mostly dark green and leathery). If my arithmetic is correct, I’ve produced a total volume of 7 cubic inches. That would fill a cylinder an inch and half in diameter and 4 inches long, roughly the size of my gallbladder. I’m speculating about the size of my gallbladder, of course, ...

Trigger points are among the many things that cause both heart arrhythmia and chest pain. I occasionally have a frightening little skipping in my heartbeat. A few massage strokes to the arrhythmia trigger point stops it immediately. The trigger points that cause chest pain are usually in the pectoral muscles or in the scalenes muscles of the front and sides of the neck. To find the arrhythmia trigger point, first find the bottom end of your sternum. Then move your fingers two inches to the right (yes, the RIGHT, not the left) and up an inch or so. This will be a spot on the next to l ...

It may be true that accumulated wastes and toxins in an unhealthy body may promote the formation of trigger points in muscle tissue. Unfortunately, just getting rid of the junk usually has very little effect on trigger points. They need to be flushed manually with massage. Humans have been giving massage to one another intuitively for thousands of years. It’s now possible to do it in an orderly, enlightened way. If you want to feel better, find a good massage therapist. Obviously, the liver cleanses have been vital for getting rid of my own abdominal pain. Hopefully, you will find t ...

I’ve used the Hulda Clark recipe all five times, but with the addition of a quart of apple juice every day for a week before the 4th and 5th purges. I want to try the full 8 ounces of olive oil next time. Incidentally, I take the oil straight, a swallow at a time, then immediately chase each swallow with a slug of grapefruit juice. I hold my breath until the grapefruit juice is in my mouth.   [End]

DO NOT MASSAGE YOUR GALLBLADDER! If some of your gallstones have a rough surface due to calcification, gallbladder massage could conceivably cause the stones to abrade the gallbladder’s inner lining. On the other hand, if you avoid the gallbladder itself, abdominal massage is not a bad idea at all. It might well get rid of that mysterious pain that remains after you’ve purged your gallstones or have had your gallbladder removed. I’m a massage therapist and I have some information that might save you some money and a good bit of misery. Gallbladder trouble tends to promote the develop ...
