for the Spirit and Diabetes"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;ve been following these blog posts, you may have noticed that diabetes is on the list of risk factors for heart disease. \u00a0Many people suffring with diabetes develop other diseases:<\/p>\n<p>Heart disease,<\/p>\n<p>Kidney failure,<\/p>\n<p>Strokes,<\/p>\n<p>Blindness.<\/p>\n<p>The risk factors for diabetes are:<\/p>\n<p>Obesity,<\/p>\n<p>Lack of physical exercise,<\/p>\n<p>High blood pressure,<\/p>\n<p>High triglycerides,<\/p>\n<p>Low HDL Cholesterol,<\/p>\n<p>Family history of diabetes.<\/p>\n<p>Type 1 Diabetes usually comes on very suddenly and strikes people 30 years and under. \u00a0It&#8217;s an autoimmune disorder. \u00a0It can be triggered by a viral infection (mumps) or by chemical toxins such as those found in meats. \u00a0A primary risk factor for Type I Diabetes is a family history of Type I Diabetes. \u00a0Type I Diabetes occurs when the pancreases produces little or no insulin. \u00a0Type I diabetics self-inject insulin and test their blood sugar levels several times daily.<\/p>\n<p>WITH PROPER MONITORING, DIABETICS FEEL WELL AND ARE ABLE TO REDUCE DAMAGE TO KIDNEYS, EYES, NERVES, BLOOD VESSELS.<\/p>\n<p>Diabetes is a spiritual disease affecting, at first, the endocrine and digestive systems. \u00a0It&#8217;s definitely on the rise. \u00a0Diabetes creates long term complications including heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, high blood pressure, amputations, and dental disease.<\/p>\n<p>Type II Diabetes develops at a somewhat later age. \u00a0The majority of people with Diabetes suffer from \u00a0Type II.<\/p>\n<p>The best luck with this disease lies in:<\/p>\n<p>careful meal planning,<\/p>\n<p>regular exercise,<\/p>\n<p>weight loss,<\/p>\n<p>close monitoring with your healthcare team.<\/p>\n<p>People at risk of developing Type II Diabetes include those who are obese, have high blood pressure, have high cholesterol, do not exercise, and who are over 45 years old.<\/p>\n<p>PLEASE NOTE: \u00a0THIS NUMBER IS COMING DOWN BECAUSE OF THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN DEVELOPING TYPE II DIABETES.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s important for people suffering from either Type I or Type II Diabetes to quit smoking, become interested in cholesterol and blood pressure control, exercise regularly, \u00a0and see their healthcare team \u00a0members regularly. \u00a0Ideally, the healthcare team consists of a primary healthcare provider (physician, nurse practitioner ),<a href=\"http:\/\/reflexologyforthespirit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/modern11.jpg\"><img

to be added to the list.<\/p>\n<p>Diabetics definitely benefit from routine Reflexology for the Spirit sessions. \u00a0They: reduce stress,<\/p>\n<p>encourage more efficient kidney function,<\/p>\n<p>help lower cholesterol and blood pressure levels,<\/p>\n<p>assist the blood circulation to the feet.<\/p>\n<p>It is more helpful for the client who is in the early stages of the disease so complications can be prevented as long as possible.<\/p>\n<p>If you are going to offer Reflexology for the Spirit \u00a0to people suffering from diabetes, you need to learn about the \u00a0medical emergencies that diabetics have to deal with. \u00a0Also, please advise your Diabetic client partners to test their levels after every session.<\/p>\n<p>ALWAYS NOTE THE CONDITION OF FEET AND TOES. \u00a0 Look for thick toenails, patchy areas of gangrene. \u00a0Is the sense of touch and pain perception altered by feeling loss?<\/p>\n<p>Your client-partner may not know about ulcers, sores, cracks on the feet. \u00a0Discuss your observations with him\/her.<\/p>\n<p>When you work the feet of Diabetic patients, work all body systems to include the endocrine, cardiovascular, urinary, digestive, immune, sense organs, liver and solar plexus.<\/p>\n<p>ESSENTIAL OILS: \u00a0cinnamon, clove, coriander, dill, fennel, lemongrass.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for reading this
