Im a firm believer in home remedies and biofeedback and positive thinking concerning ailments. Many will scoff, but those who interact with me personally daily (or even just regularly) will testify that I am very rarely sick. My insurance company makes money off of me!! Lol! My reason for posting this: I have had a bad knee for many years. After mowing today, it was extremely swollen and sore. I made a compress . . .epsom salt solution. . .secured it to my knee with an ace bandage. Swelling is gone; therefore, pain is gone. Yes, that method doesnt cure the underlying reason for the periodic swelling/pain, but it keeps me on my feet, working, until I (big ol capital I) decide on a different course of intervention. I (again, the big ol capital I) am in charge of my body. We humans, with such evolved brains, are so much more capable of controlling our own bodies than most people realize. Its amazing.
