Slant Board Treatments |
|
| A slant board treatment can help the spine, circulation, the reproductive system and more. It is really pleasant to use: Put a strong piece of wood long, enough to accommodate your height, on the floor with one end raised by six inches or a little higher - you will be aiming at a height of two feet eventually - and lie with your head towards the floor, feet on the raised end of the board. This will take the weight off, and relieve congestion in, the hips, bowel, stomach and lower back and also bring blood to the head. | |
| Do not use the slant board if you are pregnant, or have high blood pressure, stomach ulcers or heavy menstruation. There are also other times when it isn't advisable, so ask your practitioner.
If you are unable to find a slant board, you can buy boots which hook over a bar, from which you hang upside down like a bat. You can also practice shoulder stands and head stands, which will have a similar effect. |
