#dip's tips

Squid glass dip pens!

I didn't get much torch time this summer so instead of trying to churn out a bunch of the same old I decided to learn a new skill. I haven't perfected it yet but I'm getting there.

I'd like to add onto this, in a way.

I would like to encourage anyone who sees this, to search out and try a holistic chiropractor as well.

A holistic chiropractor does not do the 'cracking' that most people see; it is very gentle.

Adjustments help prevent and cope with back pain, carpal tunnel, muscle strain, headaches and migraines, and a variety of other physical ailments.

A holistic chiropractor looks at your body as a whole system, including your nervous system. They take into account physical traumas, as well as mental/emotional traumas.

Now, that may sound odd, for a doctor to consider things like stress and emotional traumas, when treating physical ailments.

But consider this: what happens to our bodies when we feel stress? When we feel afraid, sad, or angry? Our bodies physically react. For example, muscles tense up, breathing patterns change, feeling exhausted, etc.

Emotional/mental stuff is generally separated from physicality in treatment, but in your body, things are all connected. Each system reacts to the others, and works in conjunction.

So, to boil the information down more, a holistic chiropractor removes nervous system interferences through a manual adjustment, and you can get nervous system interferences from more than physical injury. And you should visit one.

Are you familiar with any stories regarding acupuncture having any bad or negative side effects? I ask bc i enjoy the way you breakdown holistic treatments and also i used to love acupuncture for my RA, but a few years ago i tried a newer provider and she had one needle in my knee that REALLY hurt, ive had it many times before i know some points can hurt more than others but this felt different. The rest of that day my knee was super painful and for weeks/months after i noticed anytime that part of my knee touched against fabric it had a weird tingling/burning/freezing feeling like my nerves were confused? Idk im a huge fan of acupuncture and want to continue getting it, but i cant find anything online about potential risks or how to navigate this.

It sounds like the person somehow irritated a nerve or maybe went too deep.

Typically speaking, the needles shouldn't be going in deep enough to hit a nerve or blood vessel, but it's not impossible. I sat in on a seminar back in the day that my friend was attending, and the entire thing was about the risk of pneumothorax (collapsed lung) after acupuncture on the chest. It was eye-opening to say the least.

The fact that you experienced significant pain and had lasting issues after the needle was removed, along with the burning/cold feeling, it sounds to me like a nerve got twinged.

If you want to continue getting the benefits of acupuncture, acupressure massage has been shown to work just as well for a lot of people with RA or other pain issues. It's also good for people with metal allergies who need to avoid the needles.

Hope that helps!

So my T-shirts and stickers came today and I’ve decided to ✨spice✨ up my laptop but to me it looks too “gappy” (is that a word) any suggestions to fill the extra space in. Thx

Tipping Point: Bed Bound RP

An rambling audio about a feedee that tricks their feedee into a bed bound RP that becomes permanent.

Your feeder says let's RP you being bed bound for a month. After plying you with drugs and booze you come out of your daze after much longer than a month.
