Self-Help Acu-Hematite Therapy
Patricia Chen & Fu-mei Wu
As technology advances we can live a happy and healthy life to the ripe old age of 150 or more. We either do not know enough about our bodies to practice preventive medicine or we do not keep practicing the principals we know for healthy living. For example, if I tell you the rules for living healthy are eat less, rest more, drink more water (at least 8 cups of water daily) and sweat more. Will you follow those four rules daily? Probably not, since you have hectic schedules.
In March of 2003, at the age of 60, I began to feel more pain in my muscles and joints. With limited knowledge I just stood there in tears because I could not think of anything else to do except visit doctors. My internist Dr. Harris gave me medicine to ease my pain. October of 2003 I found my knee was swollen and Dr. Harris thought I sprained my knee and gave me some medicine which did not help very much. I went back December 8 of 2003 and Dr. Harris sent me to an orthopedist for my knee pains. I asked for an X-ray to check what was wrong with my knees. Dr. Krutz insisted that there was no way to check knee problems by X-ray. When the visit was over, the nurse showed me the way out. The nurse told me that I should not go back to visit him since all my pain was caused by old age.
I went back to Dr. Harris. He recommended I visited a pain management doctor and gave me two doctors’ names. I called one doctor and was told the doctor would not be available until the beginning of August of 2004.
Dr. Harris thought I should take physical therapy for pain relief. At Prism Center I met Frank, a young physical therapist He just graduated from college and would study my case thoroughly in order to ease my pain. He even used hospital white sheets to build a tent and massaged my tailbone. I did feel much better. Meanwhile through the recommendation of my friend Mrs. Patty Lee. I started on July 1, 2004 to visit Dr. Kau once a week. Dr. Kau was an acupuncturist. She encouraged me to lose weight and do the maintenance myself. My husband complained that I spent too much money for my physical therapy. From that point I did not have any choices but searching for methods to relieve my own pain just liked Frank did for me.
All of a sudden I remembered that during the 1990 s, when my youngest daughter Patricia came back home from boarding high school, she asked me to massage her back and told me to search for the knots on her back, focusing on the little knots of muscle. Later l leamed it is the trigger-point massage, a common type of massage called deep tissue massage. She told me I needed to massage the knot continuously until the knot went away. It was the blockage that needed to be smoothed to ease pain. So I started to buy all kind of books related to acupoints and how to do it. Through self-massaging I used my hands to knead my own sore joints, pressure points and muscles where knots formed My nearly halfcrippled body seemed to be recovering gradually.
In October of 2010, my friend Mr. M. Lopez gave me two high-powered oval magnetic hematite stones and told me to put them in my pocket to bring me energy. I used them to massage where it was painful and it felt very comfortable. So I thought those stones would have a market. I bought some from Mr. Lopez and tried to sell them to my beautician Sandy.
My husband thought I should give them to her instead of taking her hard-earned money. I liked that idea, so I gave the stones to her as a Christmas gift. I bought more to give to my friends and sometimes Mr. Lopez would run out of the stones. I decided to ask Mr. Walter Wu to help me find a steady source.
With Mr. Wu s help I can give people two hematite stones in a green bag free of charge.
The response from those who received the hematite stones went very well. I decided to publish a book to fund those hematite stones. My Chinese book Brass House Collection was published in November of 2011.
I want to thank my followers who listened carefully to my oral instructions for using those two stones. They urged me to write a guidebook. My dear friends Ms. Pat Bedenbaugh, Mr.J.S. Woo and my dearest long-time friend Mrs. Jean Gaar helped to edit this book in earnest. One of my closest friends for more than thirty years, Mr. Walter Wu, helped to organize the photos and articles of this book. The president of Avan guard Publishing House, Mr. Lin Wen-Hsing; volunteered to arrange all the printing. Mr. Lip Haung designed my book cover and other illustrations. My uncle M「. Chun-Chien Wu, our family historian, provided me with the photos and information about my late grandfather and granduncle. A special thank you to my son, Oliver. He became a Vice President in Citi’s Equity Research Group at the age of thirty-five in 2013 and generously donated all the expenses for printing this book. I could not have published this book without him.
As you read this book you will find the methods are not ha「d-to-follow. You will leave with essential information you can put to use right away. Sooner or later you will get it right, and then you will be glad you tried. You will be able to apply it correctly for yourself, your family members, friends and loved ones.
Before beginning any exercises, diet or any information from this book, inform your medical professional.
So many nights I would wake up with chronic pain and Dr. Krutz would not do anything for me, so I thought I was done with conventional medicine, although I was worried. I was lucky to find the help from the hematite stones. Since I have had pain I understand other’s pain and I would like to share my pain relief method. Although my age qualifies me to have Medicare benefits and I appreciate the governments help with the high cost of physical therapy (2 hours for $365.00 in my small town and likely more expensive in a large city) I think the government cannot continue to operate on borrowed money. (The New York Times Sunday February 12 of 2012 reported that payroll taxes and premiums do not cover all Medicare costs – federal general funds were used for nearly half of these costs in 2010). We need to save money for people who really are in need or whose lives are in danger. I believe we should do self-help before seeking doctor’s help for saving our own and our government s money. Other information from the New York Times indicated “recession drains Social Security and Medicare^. The Social Security trust fund will be exhausted in 2037 and the Medicare fund that pays hospital bills for older Americans is expected to run out of money in 2017. From The Wall Street Journal, the information was even worse, on April 24 of 2012, the first page, Stress Rises on Social Security” said that Social Security, which pays retirement and disability benefits to 56 million Americans, will exhaust its reserves by 2033, three years sooner than previously estimated. How worried are you about projected deficits in Social Security and Medicare? If you really care, you just need to get some information from this book and do your best to take care of yourself. One of my friends joked to me when I handed out the stone to her. She asked if the stone would bring her luck or not? I told her if she was looking for some big bucks, then she should buy a book Bringing Down the House, the inside story of six M.l.T. students who took Vegas for million. This book was written by my second-son-in-law Ben Mezrich. If she just hunted for small money, my husband had his own counting card system. Most of the time he would win a few dollars by playing blackjack.
All proceeds from the sale of this book will donate to Kerr Acu-Hematite Foundation which gives two hematite stones in a green bag (green color brings health) away free of charge to the one who believes in the miracles of hematite stones and the massages of Acu-points for pain relief. Using those hematite stones daily will prevent all ailments and illness. They also can improve the quality of your life.
