This entry is especially for those who suffer foot problems of their own - and unfortunately I know there are a lot of you out there:
I went with Cloud to the clinic today so that I could get another treatment and consultation with Madame Aruna Pendse who does chiropractic work. She uses something called a "thumper" and thumps the vertebrae in carefully selected spots rather than the typical adjustment we are used to in The States.
She can see that I'm not properly aligned and will give me exercises to do on Thursday for my spine when I see her again on Thursday.
Today she looked at my feet - and guess what? She has a solution for them! She showed Cloud and I some manipulations that must be done 2x / day on my feet. It involves pulling on the toes, pulling the calcaneous or heel bone away and up (I'm sitting with legs stretched out in front on a table) - stretching the tight tendon on the back of the leg. She explained that the bones are pressing on the nerves and that due to the tight and shortened tendon, by weight is being carried by the toes, metatarsals and and small bones under the inside ankle and the arch. (So true.) Those small bones aren't strong enough to hold my weight and causes strain in that area and on the arch resulting in pain there and below the ankle.
Note: My heel is the one area that doesn't hurt to put weight on in my feet. And she says that due to the misalignment, my weight is not being carried by the heel - which is designed to carry it.
After panchakarma treatment - our bodies have now absorbed so much oil into our tissues - even into our nerve endings, that these manipulations will actually be very effective. When the bones are pulled out of place (pulling of toes) this moves the metatarsals and when they fall back into place they will move into the correct place (body wisdom). The same with pulling out the heel - the area where the foot meets the calf - when pulled out the bones move - they have space and make movement. Right now they are not in the correct place.
When Cloud pushes against the toes and forefoot, he is stretching the ligament up the back of the leg. I can also do a common exercise for that ligament.
After just ONE treatment - my foot feels better when walking. She could not say how many days of treatments would be necessary - weeks, a couple of months at most - while we're still oiled up. For me it's all about the nerve pain. To think that the bones could move out - just as they moved in back in 2003 - well, all I can say is HALLELUJAH!!
Panchakarma continues to reveal it's benefits. What's next?
Thanks for all the wonderful support out there in Blogland. We really do appreciate it!!

Oh my Goddess! Absolutely glorious news! Haaaaa-leeee-luuuu-jah! Perhaps Cloud will also get something wonderful from "The Boss" Dr. Aruna Pendse, to do for 'tightness' in his legs...then you can use the old adage "Are you pulling my leg?" for that blog entry. Love the personalization of the 'toe' my dear funny friend...what a wonderful journey you have allowed all of to accompany you on. I truly look forward to checking each day to see your latest adventures/accomplishments/treatments and miracles. Love as usual, DR
