DYSMENORRHEA
A great number of women suffer severe pain before and during the periods. In many of these cases we can by overcoming the local congestion give the greatest relief. We recommend:
- 1. Massage of the liver.
- 2. Massage of the whole abdomen.
- 3. St. rotation of arms.
- 4. L. rotation of feet.
- 5. St. rotation of body.
- 6. L. rotation of leg.
- 7. St. bending of turned body.
- 8. L. rotation of pelvis.
This treatment should be given to the patient at least two weeks before the period is expected, and she should be properly instructed how to take a few good movements to prevent the congestion of blood in the abdomen.
I have made the observation that women who lace tightly are always the greatest sufferers from dysmenorrhea.
