Improve Internal Respiration for Health and Longevity

The process of respiration in which oxygen is inhaled into the living cells and carbon-dioxide is exhaled from them is a fundamental phenomenon of life which is universally present in every type of living organism.Respiration occurs externally and internally. The respiration which takes place in the lungs, with the passage of oxygen from the alveoli to the blood is known as External Respiration and the respiration that takes place in the cells of the body tissues is known as Internal Respiration.

 The yogic science of pranayama is concerned with the internal respiration.  The secret of health and longevity lies in the technique of diverting the breathing to the subtle channels and centers.

 Breathing is an important bridge between the mind and the body and can influence both.  Our breathing pattern reflects our emotional and mental status.  While it is difficult to control the mind and emotion directly, they can be mastered indirectly by using the breath.

 The basic energy underlying all activities, both physical and mental is ‘prana’ or ‘subtle life force’.  Prana is found in the air that we breathe, in the Earth we life on, in the water we drink and in the sunlight.

 As oxygen is taken up by the circulatory system, so is prana taken up by the nervous system and is spent as nerve-force in the act of thinking, desiring etc.  Regulation of breath enables us to absorb a greater supply of prana to be stored up in the brain and in the nerve centers, for use when necessary. Every function of the bodily organs is dependent on nerve-force, which is supplied by ‘prana’. This ‘prana’ not only supplies electric force to the nerves, but it also magnetizes the iron in the system and produces the aura as a natural emanation.

 The first step in the development of personal magnetism, which reflects the good health, is the practice of pranayama breathing.  By absorbing and storing an increased supply of prana in the system will increase the vitality and strength of the body.

 Practice Pranayama! Stay Healthy!

ACUPUNCTURE TREATMENT For INSOMNIA (SLEEPLESSNESS)

I CASE

SYMPTOMS

 These symptoms indicate the heat energy is in excess.  This type of insomnia can be treated by reducing the heat in the heart meridian itself once in a fortnight.  It shows the problem is originated in the heart itself.

II CASE

SYMPTOMS

 In this case, the spleen weakness has affected the heart since heat energy has to produce humidity.  Since the problem lies in spleen, treatment to heart meridian is ineffective.  So, Yin humidity increase is the best formula for insomnia and palpitations.

III CASE

 SYMPTOMS

 Here, the kidney deficiency is the root cause of the problem.  Since coldness energy is less, the heat energy is not properly controlled.

 By increasing the Yin coldness, we can give very good results for insomnia.

Introduction:

 “Time and Tide wait for No Man”. Old age is bound to come along with age-old problems, which our parents and grandparents have faced in their life.  Entering the senior citizen category at the age of 60 or 65 years is bound to be a nightmare for many people.  If they are in employment and retiring at the age of 60, it brings some sudden changes and harsh adjustments for which people are not fully prepared and very few people plan it well.  Overnight, one may find oneself without work, without contact with colleagues and without any specific goal to look forward to.  Some of them have a well-planned retired life due to their foresight and have less physical problems compared to those who have not planned properly.

 Old age medical problems are more psychosomatic in nature and we must understand the problem before providing any universal solution for the same.

 Along with conventional medicines, drugless therapies open up avenues to keep healthy till the end, of course with reduced medication.  Prevention is better than Cure.  Preventive measures should start at a young age.  Most of the youngsters don’t appreciate our preventive health care with Yogasanas and Pranayama designed by our great saints, and according to me it is India, which has let down Yoga and not Yoga which has let down India.  Even in the old age, the problems can be cured by practicing Yoga and following the Yogic way of life.

 Anywhere in the world, preventive health care starts with mind training.  The equilibrium of body, mind and soul is a must to stay healthy.  By staying healthy, one can continuously attempt to find out the purpose of life and also contribute their best to their organization and in turn to the country.

UP
Drugless Therapies for Old Age Problems:

 First of all we must try to understand what are the possible old age problems and what alternative therapies are available so as to reduce the medication, at the very least.

 UP
Multiple Pathology:

 As age advances, cataract limiting the vision, heart disease, cerebral stroke, urinary infection, osteo-arthritis of the knees/hips are very common among senior citizens.  Though it needs proper allopathy treatment, oil pulling therapy will certainly improve their health parameters.

UP
Mind Related – Tendency to Confusion:

 As we are aging due to loss of nerve cells, tendency to forget and sudden onset of confusion can occur.  Such reactions are short lived and can be corrected as soon as we restore the physical organ.  Acupressure or Acupuncture treatment will help a lot.

UP
Lesser Sensitivity to Pain:

 As the aging progresses, the sensory nerves lose their efficiency and sensation of pain diminishes.  Especially diabetic persons may not feel the pain when they hurt their feet, which is more dangerous.  It is advisable to keep the sugar level under control.  Pranayama and acupressure can help chronic diabetics to keep it under control.

UP
Diminished Temperature Regulation:

 When the body is infected, it is the defense reaction of the body to raise the body temperature to kill the bacteria.  The temperature regulation may not be an efficient as in young people.  Pulse rate and respiration is often better indicators (guide to access) of the illness.  Regular pranayama exercise increases the efficiency of the immune system and the infection can be controlled with very less antibiotics.

UP
Reaction to Drugs:

 Some people at the old age are more sensitive to drugs and the harmful side effects of drugs are also very common.  Drugs taken for controlling B.P., pain killers etc. are slowly metabolized in the liver and because of diminished renal function, it takes longer to excrete them.  One drug may react with another drug taken for different symptoms.  Oil pulling therapy and pranayama along with acupressure can reduce the medicines to bare minimum.

Fatigue:

 Persistent fatigue is a common symptom in older patients.  One has to check for heart disease, coronary artery disease or valve prolapsed or low B.P.  It shows the heart is not able to cope up with the demand for physical activities.  Oil pulling therapy, pranayama and acupressure will improve the situation within few weeks.

UP
Sleeplessness or Sleep Disturbance:

 In old age, sleeplessness due to anxiety, aches and pains is very common.  Leg cramps especially for ladies and also the need to urinate during the night will disturb the sleep.

 The acupressure point *H-7 can be kept pressed for 10 seconds for 3 to 4 times before going to bed.  Medulla massage* can be done for 5 minutes for getting good quality of sleep.  Giving light massage for the little finger through which heart meridian passes can improve the sleep.

UP
Loss of Appetite (Anorexia):

 Some people in the old age may lose their appetite and may not have any interest to eat.  It is mainly due to stomach and spleen.  Activating the spleen** and stomach** reflex points daily can solve the problem.

UP
Breathlessness (Dyspnoea):

 This problem can be due to Lung weakness or Heart problem or deficiency in the blood etc.  Oil pulling therapy done regularly along with pranayama will improve the situation.

UP
Vertigo (Giddiness):

 Giddiness or dizziness is one of the common symptoms among elderly people.  Very unpleasant feeling and sometimes frightening.

 The probable causes can be minor like wax in the ear or any other causes like severe anemia, hypertension or intestinal bleeding etc.

 A single point solution in acupressure will give immediate relief i.e. TW17**.  Pressure and release at this point for 2 minutes, which will relieve the giddiness.

UP
Fainting Fits:

 Old people may faint suddenly or lose their consciousness due to sudden fall in B.P. and diminished oxygen availability to the brain.  An acupressure point GV-26 located on the lips just below the nose can revive them immediately.

UP
Constipation:

 It is very common in old age and it can lead to bleeding piles.  It can be due to diet or under activity.  An acupressure point CV-25 located just on the center of the chin can be activated early morning before going for evacuation.  Plenty of luke warm water and half boiled vegetables will help to ease constipation.

UP
Incontinence of Urine or Retention of Urine:

 As we grow old, the bladder muscles will be weakened especially sphincter muscle, which is voluntary.  Sometimes due to prostrate swelling the urinary tube may be pressed so that urine is retained for longer time.  Again the acupressure point B-60 just behind the ankle on the lateral side will give very good results.

UP
Immune System:

 Apart from all these problems, infection at the old age is a real problem and the treatment with antibiotics will worsen the situation.  A workout called immune system workout given in my “Acupressure & Fitness” book can be practiced daily to improve the immune system by activating the spleen, kidney, intestine, liver and lymphatic reflex points daily for 5 minutes.

UP
Nutrition Requirement:

 Nutrition required for body repair and rejuvenation may not be available in the body due to improper food intake.   Diet plays an important role in solving old age problems.  Chewing the food for a long period of time will help in digestion and absorption of the food.

UP
Precautions:

 Broken bones due to slippage in the bathroom is one of the common problems.  Bathrooms with handrails and cleanliness can give required support to avoid accidental slippage.  Prevention is better than cure.

Mind is Important:

 Mental tension for retired people due to their loss of authority can cause health problems.  Relatives and friends should be supportive and understand the problems associated with retirement.  The secure feeling within family plays an important role in senior citizens’ health management.

 UP
Preventive Health Care:

 To maintain optimal health, exercise plays an important role.  Regular walking exercise improves the circulation of the blood, reduces swelling in the body and offers prevention of any major problem in future.

 Oil Pulling Therapy is the best for aged people since it does not demand too much effort.  One can very easily throw out all the toxins from our body.  One can refer to the process in my book “Acupressure and Fitness”.  Just by pressing and releasing the entire palm with our fingers daily for 5 minutes can activate all our organs and offers preventive health care.

 To prevent further progression and complications of disease, one should give attention to adequate nutritional intake, avoiding stimulating drinks like alcohol, coffee, tea etc. and regularly practice walking as an aerobic exercise for 30 minutes.  Building financial security for old age and having a good social network in case of any emergency will give inner peace of mind, which is the primary requirement to stay healthy.

  Wish you all a healthy and happy retired life.

Case Histories

Very good results with Acupuncture

Says Dr. Arwind, Agasthya Acu Clinic
18A, II Cross, Co-op. Colony
Krishnagiri Ph. 04343-239221

I have done classical Acupuncture course and practicing in my clinic for past 10 years.Last year we met Dr. Bhojraj in Bangalore and wanted to learn the innovative acupuncture method developed by him, which combines classical, and Su-jok acupuncture techniques. The book written by him on this method was very impressive and six of us attended his course for nearly one year, learning pulse diagnosis every fortnight in Bangalore and practicing in my clinic with this method.

 I have such wonderful results with his technique and I am practicing his method only for all my patients,which requires just 2 minutes,and once in a week or fortnight depending on the progress.

 Few case histories are given here as samples with this scientific method.

UP
Osteo Arthrities / High B.P.

 Mrs. Vishalakshi W/o. Mr. Shrikantan (Ph.04343-236727) aged about 40 years was suffering from osteo arthritis for 17 years and high B.P. for the past 5 years.  She had tried allopathy and ayurvedic treatments so far but got little relief for her complaints.  Her knee had swollen and she was unable to walk due to this.

 One of her colleagues who had undergone my acupuncture treatment got good relief for her numbness of hands, recommended her to try acupuncture with me.   When Mrs. Vishalakshi visited me for the first time in June 2004 she was supported by her husband and with pain & swelling she very slowly walked into my clinic.

 In the first sitting according to pulse diagnosis Yin Wind increase was given.  The result was dramatic.  She could observe that the swelling had come down and she could walk little freely than earlier.  The second sitting was Yin Humidity decrease and third one was Yang Humidity decrease where I followed the pulse diagnosis as taught by Dr. Bhojraj.

 Within a period of three months (treatment was given twice a month) she could walk normally without pain and knee swelling had completely cured.  Incidentally her blood pressure was also checked every 15 days and it had come back to normal 130/80.  She was advised to reduce the tablets on the first month and on the second month she stopped the B.P. tablets.  Last few months I have been monitoring her B.P., which remains almost normal.  She was advised to practice pranayama, walking and acupressure.

Diabetes with high B.P. and knee pain cured with Acupuncture

 Mrs. Lourdu Mary aged about 51 years was having diabetes for the past 10 years and her postprandial blood sugar (PPBS) used to be in range of 280 to 320 mg/dl.  She was taking Dianil with Homeopathy.

 She was treated for diabetes for past 6 months (twice a month) and her PPBS has come down to less than 180 within two months.  She was advised to walk for 45 minutes every day and she could start walking since the knee pain also reduced within a month.  Her blood pressure also become normal.  Her diabetic tablets also gradually reduced and now she takes very less tablets compared to her condition before Acupuncture treatment.

UP
Diabetes – Insulin stopped within 6 months of Acupuncture treatment

 Mr. Nagarajan aged about 75 years (Ph.04343 – 232763) was taking 25 units of insulin every day and in spite of insulin injection his PPBS used to be in range of 240 mg/dl.  He was given acupuncture treatment 3 times a month for 6 months.  Gradually the insulin units also reduced and after 6 months the PPBS was less than 180 without insulin injection.  Now his urination is under control and he says that he get deep sleep without disturbance (due to urination in the night).  His tiredness also reduced according to him.  The homeo medicine, which he was taking, is continued and he was advised to walk everyday.

 I have many successful case histories with Dr. Bhojraj’s method, which is very simple and very effective. It is a boon for the people in and around Krishnagiri.
 
 
 

COURSE DIRECTOR’S COMMENTS
It is heartening to note that our scientific method has given good results to Dr. Arwind and his colleagues who had done this advance acupuncture course.   Acupressure books are also available with Dr. Arwind.

I recommend the patients in and around Krishnagiri to try this method with Dr. Arwind whose Clinic address is give above.

We must develop many acupuncture Doctors in our rural areas.

Back pain relieved

Says Mrs. Vijayalakshmi,Mysore

 I had severe back pain.  I went to Mrs. Vijaya Seshadri for treatment at the suggestion of my brother.  She made me lie down and gave pressure at few points, made me turn about and some massaging was done.  Then she inserted a tiny needle at few points.  Immediately I had a lot of relief and am able to sit and walk about freely now.  I was not aware of this method of treatment.  This is my first experience to it.  I learnt it is called “Acupressure”.  By taking tablets, I feel we get relief from pain momentarily, but it always comes back, but “Acupressure” seems to be more permanent and effective.

 I am very thankful to her for exposing me to this new method of treatment without drugs.

Note: First ‘Balancing’ was done which itself gave her 50% relief.  Then Acu treatment ‘­B-66 ¯ St-36 ­GB-41 ­TW2 was given.

Swollen thumb becomes normal with Acupuncture

 My maidservant had her right thumb swollen and it had turned fully white in colour.  She had severe pain and was finding it difficult to wash utensils.  Doctor had suggested surgery.  I gave her Acu treatment – lung energy increase.  To my amazement, the next day her finger became normal and no pain.

 She also has cataract and dim vision due to it.  She is advised to go for surgery, which is very expensive for her.  So in the meanwhile, I gave her Acu treatment – Liv 9 ¯ Liv3­ Liv1¯ P3¯.  I have also shown her eye reflex points to be activated daily.  She is following it regularly & reports some improvement in vision.

Headache cured with Acupuncture:

 Says Ms. Swathi Bhushan
 Age – 19 years

 I had been suffering from severe headache during afternoons.  I consulted a practicing homeopath who prescribed medicines.  But, the relief was slow.  During the Acupressure course conducted in world culture, I was given treatment by Mrs. Vijaya Seshadri on the 4 points on the leg.  I was relieved in a jiffy.  I am thankful to her for relieving me of headache.

UP
Severe cramps relieved by Acupressure:

Says Ms. Vidya Seshadri Age: 19 years

 Recently, I had severe cramps in my leg, which was very painful.  I had difficulty in moving my leg.  My mother Vijaya Seshadri gave me Acupressure treatment by activating a point in my feet (GB-44).  My pain immediately vanished and I had a lot of relief.

 My sister Veena Seshadri and I have also attended classes and learnt some of these techniques.  We find it very useful in our daily activities.  Our friends have also benefited by these simple techniques.

 Earlier, we used to catch cold, cough & fever frequently.  We used to end up going to the doctor quite often.  But in a few sittings of Acupressure, the intensity and frequency of the colds has also come down.  I feel that this is a simple, effective and drugless method of curing many problems.

UP
Back pain cured with proper diagnosis & medication:

 Says Ms. Bhuvana
 Flat 7, Door No.10
 South Canara Bank Rod, Mandaveli,
 Chennai – 28
 Ph-24953936

 I was suffering from acute pain in my lower back (spine) for more than a year.  I was directed to Dr. Jayalakshmi by one of my friends.  The pain was so severe that I used to be totally immobile, whenever the pain occurred. The first time I met Dr. Jayalakshmi, she had done the Balancing Treatment for me and I was relieved of the pain immediately.

 The pain recurred again after 6 months; I once again met Dr. Jayalakshmi for treatment.  This time she immediately diagnosed and said that the problem was different at this juncture and it necessitated a scan.  I consulted an Ortho Dr. and had a scan taken.  I was diagnosed of a very serious problem of “Koch’s lesions” and was put in bed rest for more than 4 months. Had this diagnosis not be done correctly at that time, I am told that I would have got my legs paralyzed for life.

 I am grateful to Dr. Jayalakshmi for the timely help and right diagnosis.  Now she had become our family doctor for any disease be it a simple cough to fever & what not. I pray God that Dr. Jayalakshmi continues this selfless service of hers!

UP
Low back pain cured with Acupuncture

Says Ms. Sundari Nathan
2G, 18, Abdul Razack St.
Saidapet
Chennai – 15
Ph. 24310725

 I was suffering from severe low back pain which started when I bent suddenly to the front could not straighten myself, and the pain was so high, all my normal activities got paralyzed.  I suffered very much for 10 days totally lying and even after taking painkillers thrice a day I was not able to bear the pain.

 When I met ortho specialist he told hereafter in my life, I should not bend harshly and should be on exercises lifelong.  He also prescribed painkillers and Ranitidin to safeguard my intestines for two months.  I was very much worried.  Then I told about my ailment to Dr. Jayalakshmi, she simply listened and did Acupuncture to me.  It looked like magic and my pain vanished in 10 minutes.  When she did the treatment for the second time, it totally disappeared and I was so happy that I joined the Acupressure course conducted by Dr. Jayalakshmi.  Now I feel confident about self-help and also helping people around me and treating my colleagues.  Dr. Jayalakshmi has become a family advisor now I thank almighty for introducing her to me.

Heel Pain vanished, Low Back Pain cured, No Cold, No Migraine now

says Dr.(Mrs.) Vijaya Seshadri (My own experience).

A few years back, I was suffering from heel pain.  I used to find it difficult even to stand and do the kitchen work.  I went to our family Doctor.  She diagnosed it as “Calcarea Spur” and said – “this is a common problem, most of us get it at some time or the other.  There is no cure for this.  I can give you pain killers or if it is too severe, I can give injection”.  After returning home, I remembered attending Dr.Bhojraj’s Basic Course a few months back.  I thought “why not try Acupuncture for my problem”.  At that time, I had no idea about the limits of Acupuncture.  I thought how could it solve my heel pain, but still no harm in trying.  So I went to Dr.Bhojraj for treatment.  In the 1st sitting itself, I got 30% relief.  After 2 more sittings, I wondered if I had imagined the pain.  These were no traces of it left and to this day it has not returned.

Later, I joined the Advance Course, and during this period itself got rid of low back-ache and low abdomen-ache.  This used to be a major problem for me in these days.   The pain when it came once in two months or so would be so severe, I had to take tablets and lie down, rest for 2-3 days till it subsided.   During the Advance Course, during demonstration of pulse-diagnosis, my K pulse was detected to be high.  Dr. Bhojraj just gave anti-clockwise rotations on my K-10 point and wo!  I couldn’t believe it, from then onwards this severe pain said good-bye to me.

I used to suffer from severe cold quite often.  It used to be miserable and would stay for a minimum of 2 weeks, extreme tiredness, body ache, etc. for the first few days.  Each time, I had to take antibiotic to come out of it.  After taking Acupuncture treatment 2-3 times for cold, I have developed resistance for it and don’t get it with such severity now.

By night 9 - 9.30 P.M., I used to feel very tired and find it difficult to complete my night chores.  Now a days, I am able to be awake till 11.00 P.M. and get up by 5.00 A.M. without getting tired.  I feel much healthier now.

I used to suffer also from migraine; now my migraine attacks are very rare and on few occasions, the severity was very less.

I am now doing Diploma Course in Naturopathy and we are at present studying the “Heart and Circulatory System”.  I suddenly realized that I have stopped getting my chest pain now a days.  Earlier I used to have this problem.  Doctor diagnosed it as a “missed beat and weakness”.  Each time when I got the pain, I had to take rest for 2-3 days and stress-caps tablets (B-complex).  I don’t know when it stopped but I have the problem no more.  We think of our body parts and organs only when there is problem or pain, otherwise we take them for granted.

I attribute all these only to knowledge and practice of Acupressure.

 Dr.(Mrs.) Vijaya Sheshari, M.D. (Acu) is now ready to treat the patients in Padmanabhanagar area.  Contact Ph. 26390290 for details.

Acupuncture treatment helped to regularize menstrual cycle says

K. Vanishree, Control Systems Group, ISRO Satellite Centre,Bangalore.

 My menstrual cycle suddenly became erratic and was putting me under a lot of anxiety.  And from my previous experiences with Dr. Bhojraj about healing from various other complaints, I confidently turned to him for solution.  Two sittings of a minute or two was all that was needed to set things right.  Today, I am a much relieved person and my many thanks to Dr. Bhojraj for his self-less service.

No Acidity, No Leg Pain and Blood Sugar under control with Acupressure.

 Says Prof. C.R. Panduranga Gupta, Jayanagar, Bangalore.

 I was suffering from chronic hyper acidity for nearly 25 years and have been taking antacid tablets and last 5 years I was asked to take Zentac daily for stomach ulcers.

Also, I used to have terrible leg pain due to varicose veins and my leg colour used to be partially black on the areas of my varicose vein problem.  I am also a diabetic and my sugar level used to cross the upper limit of 160-180 Mg/dl inspite of my regular intake of medicines.

During February 2005, three days acupressure course was conducted in Jayanagar by Dr.Sujatha Palyam and after attending the course, my transformation started.

First and foremost thing I was relieved from my acidity problem by activating the Acu point LI.4 in my hand.  My digestion also improved and hardly I take any antacid tablets.

My leg pain is reduced to the extent of 90% and the colour of my leg also turning to its natural colour.  I am activating spleen point Sp.6 as taught in the course.

Also, my sugar level has come under control of course with tablets by activating the Spleen, Liver and Pancreas reflex points on my palm.

I thank Acupressure Club and Dr.Sujatha for spreading these simple healing systems to the common man.  Since it is “do it yourself” therapy, I recommend this course for all the people who are interested in curing their disease without drugs.

No more Giddiness due to Hypogycemia

says Mr.Srinivasan C, No.44, Sri Jayendra Colony, Kottivakkam, Chennai – 96.  Ph.9840149487.

I had reactive hypoglycemia combined with rapid small bowel.  Six months back (June 2004),  I had to eat more than 4 times and even then I would feel giddy every 3 hours and would be forced to eat food.  After taking treatment with Dr. J. Jayalakshmi, I feel very comfortable.  I have more energy to perform my day today operations.  The giddiness has completely disappeared and I am taking food 3 times a day as normal people do.  My digestion and absorption have improved a lot.

Six months back, I had chronic fatigue.  As the treatment progresses, I am getting relieved from my problems, including emotional stress.

 I sincerely thank Dr. Jayalakshmi for the help.

Nervous System response improved with Acupuncture treatment

says Mr. V. Arvind Nivas, 63/7, 2nd Main Road, R.A. Puram,Chennai – 28.  Ph. 24952409.

I am 31 year young Engineering Graduate.  I met with an accident 10 years ago.  I had multiple fractures in my right upper hand.  Surgery was done and a plate was attached to the bone.  As a result, my right hand was paralysed.  The movement in the wrist, fingers were almost nil.  The Doctors told me that a nerve was affected.  I was given Physiotherapy treatment.  The recovery was only 20%.

I took treatment from Dr. J. Jayalakshmi.  In the first sitting itself, there was a ray of hope.  The improvement was about 50 to 60%.  After the second sitting, I was able to hold the pen and write freely.  I hope in another 2 or 3 sittings I will become normal.

I had also been suffering from low back pain for nearly 4 years.  I had a catch like pain continuously.  I tried all types of treatments but there was no improvement.  To my surprise, the catch like pain vanished with a single Acupuncture treatment from Dr. Jayalakshmi.

These two wonderful recoveries of mine kindled my enthusiasm to learn more about this Drugless Therapy.  I have decided to join the Acupressure Course conducted by Dr. Jayalakshmi.

ACUPRESSURE BOOK IN TAMIL.

By Dr.J.Jayalakshmi
 

 The book “Arogya Vazhvukku Acupressure” has in a very simple and lucid Tamil brought out the entire message of drugless therapy that we have been propagating.  The book also has a number of case studies from the cases treated by her successfully.  The book which can be easily studied and understood by an average Tamil knowing individual would meet our long standing aspiration of taking our method of treatment to a significant segment of Tamil speaking public.

Boon of basic course in Acupressure: Mrs. Vijaya Seshadri

 After undergoing the basic course 5 years back, I have tried this simple techniques for various ailments and got wonderful results.  I have listed few case histories with basic course knowledge.  Seeing such good results, I took up advance course with Dr. Bhojraj and graduated to treat others with acupuncture after pulse diagnosis.  I thank Dr. Bhojraj for his teachings.

(a) Black mark on the toe vanished:

 I had a black mark on my left big toe.  I just activated the liver and spleen points on tip of the big toe nail.  To my amazement, the black mark disappeared within 5 days.  At the time I’d not taken the treatment intentionally but understood its significance only later.

(b) Leg pain relieved:

 Whenever I got pain in my legs by standing for long, I activate Sp-6 and St-36, and am relieved of it immediately.

(c)   Relief during periods:

 Sp-6 is a magic point for period pain.  Whenever my daughter gets pain during this time, I activate Sp-6 and she is relieved.

(d)  Saved from II heart attack:

 My cousin, Mr. Giridharan was able to ward off his heart attack by just activating H-9 and heart reflex point and breathlessness by activating B-13.  After his first attack, I visited him and showed him these points.  Soon after that, he had a second attack, which he was able to face with this knowledge and was very thankful to me.  Thus, he was able to avert.

(e)   Weight reduced with Pranayama:

 Just by doing Pranayama for a week (in Swami Ramdev;s Camp), I’ve reduced by 1.6 kg.   These Pranayama technique cure also a part of or ‘Basic Course Programme’.

(f)  Balancing relieves back pain:

 Whenever I get low back pain, I relieve myself of it by just doing the hip balance.   This is the only balancing we can do our self without a second person’s help.  Once my friend came to me with so much of pain, we could see the pain in her face itself.  I just did balancing for her and could see the pain leaving her face & it was replaced by a smile.  Such response gives immense satisfaction and I’m grateful to Dr. H. Bhojraj for imparting these to us.

(g) St-36 for Leg pain

 While climbing   “Melkottai Hills’ my co-sister experienced a lot of pain in her legs.  I activated St-36 in her leg, which made her climb easier.  The next day she rang up & said I’ve no pain in the leg you activated and also “No Journey Tiredness”.

(h) Mouth ulcers cured

 A vegetable vendor once had mouth ulcers.  My friend Dr. Sujatha Palyam asked her to activate St-3 at the base of her little finger.  Two days later the lady returned with a beaming smile & lot of gratitude and gave Dr. Sujatha a bundle of greens free of cost and exclaims  ‘I did what you told and my ulcers have vanished’.

(i) Balancing relieved hip pain:

 Dr. Sujatha  Palayam entered this field mainly due to the Balancing Technique of Basic Course.  She was suffering from knee-pain & a lot of problems.  Dr. Bhojraj performed ‘Balancing’ on her and she was relieved by 50%.  This gives her a lot of encouragement to go to the depth of this.

(j) Lower abdomen pain cured:

 When I attended Dr. Bhojraj’s Basic Course at World Culture for the first time, I had a lot of pain in my low abdomen and back. Dr. Bhojraj just activated 2 points on my leg, which gave me a lot of relief. This had my interest aroused & I went for the ‘Advance Course’ later. Now I’m much healthier than what I was 5 years back.  This holds good for the people around me also.

(k) Fever relieved

 During this course, my daughter was suffering from fever.  Dr. Bhojraj activated a point on her hand, which reduced her fever.  She went into fainting for which Dr. Bhojraj activated a point on her upper lip.  Immediately she regained her consciousness.    We were spellbound by this magic.

By adopting Acupressure as our daily routine, we can enhance our immunity, youthfulness & have a better quality of life.  To quote Dr. Bhojraj, ‘Invest just a little in your health & see the results, without the investment in the bank one cannot feel comfortable in life’.

 If such is the effectiveness of Dr. Bhojraj’s Basic Course, the extent of his ‘Advance Course’ can be imagined.  His technique is an innovative method, very different from the classical Acupuncture.  His methods are painless, simple, less time consuming and more effective.

(l) Catch relieved with GB-41.

 I used to travel in scooter from Padmanabhanagar to Koramangala & back.  By the time I returned near our house I had a bad catch in my thigh region.  It was paining terribly.  By just activating GB-41, I got immediate relief.

(m) Vomiting sensation relieved with Liv-1.

 During my aunt’s son’s marriage, my aunt was feeling miserable – nausea, vomiting sensation, - tiredness & tension due to heavy work.  I just activated Liv-3 point on her feet and the relief was magical.  She was overwhelming with her thanks exclaiming “God has only sent you at the correct time”.  She commended “you’ve saved me from making a scene on this important occasion”.

(n) Constipation Solved with CV-25.

 My friends daughter Anagha 2 yrs old, has constipation problem. I taught her mother the CV-25 point at chin. It worked  from then onwards.  Anagha tells her Mom – ‘mummy, press my chin’

(o) Toothache relieved

 My music teacher was suffering from toothache. I advised him oil – pulling therapy. He did it 3-4 times a day & soon had good relief. Oil pulling strengthens the teeth & mouth.  It cures mouth ulcers also.
