Incontinence – a common spiritual affliction suffered by many, many people
Incontinence, the inability to control bladder functions, can be caused by injury, weak sphincter muscles, pressure on the bladder, and emotional stress. Incontinence accompanies diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease. Incontinence is also common in people over 50.
Spiritually, incontinence is a sense of being out of control. Sufferers are anxious, overwhelmed, stressed,
There are several types of incontinence: stress incontinence, urge incontinence, overflow incontinence, functional incontinence, and total incontinence.
Things can be done to prevent incontinence. Performing Kegel exercises to keep the pelvic floor muscles toned is helpful. Regular bowel movements help. It’s important to drink adequate but not extremely large amounts of water. Cut back on caffeine, and alcohol. Find out if any of the other medications you take can cause incontinence. If so, try to switch to a different drug.
Nutrition is a factor in incontinence. Take a good quality magnesium tablet daily. When you add magnesium to your vitamin regime, expect to take it for up to four months before you notice a difference.
Reflexology sessions definitely help. However, the incontinence sufferer needs to visit a physician to get a diagnosis. Treatments include exercise, reflexology, acupuncture, medication, surgery.
A reflexology for the spirit session for an incontinence sufferer includes:
Work the solar plexus and diaphragm reflexes.
Work the urinary system with emphasis on the bladder reflexes.
And, for men, work the prostate reflexes.
