Why is Back pain so Common?

Thursday, September 1st, 2011

This problem is never ending!
You bend or reach for
something and you end up with a
sharp pain that feels like a knife is stabbing you.

OH MY ACHING BACK!

It’s a fact that you will
experience back pain at some
point in your life, no matter
how healthy and fit you are.
I know I have!

It can happen from over reaching,
an unexpected sneeze, or lifting
even the lightest thing and there it
goes.

Why is back pain so common?
Our muscles have to work constantly to hold
us upright against gravity and to move us around.
These muscles can get tired,
and being overweight as well as out of shape
causes even more problems.
Strong muscles, in the central part of the body,
(the core muscles) help to carry body weight and
to prevent the spine from getting overloaded.
When, these core muscles get weak,
the spine must compensate and do extra work,
therefore causing pain.

Things like over sitting, muscle spasm and stress can be a real pain.

* Sitting is worse for the back than standing.
The load shifts onto the disc as you lean
forward causing more strain and the muscles become tired.

* When less oxygen reaches the muscle,
there is more waste built up.
These changes trigger the muscle to go
into a spasm; it keeps firing on its own.

* Stress and tension tighten up the muscles,
making them more susceptible to injury.

I have found that for the most part,
people don’t stretch enough
or they stretch wrong.
As soon as they make a wrong movement,
their back starts to hurt.

Stretching is one of the best solutions to a healthy
and pain free back!

You’ll need no dangerous pain pills,
no smelly creams and no Chiropractor.

Granted, it takes work, but remember there is
no free lunch.
You have to pay either way–
with the pain or by doing the work.

Back pain can be a never ending problem
or no problem at all.

Most traditional doctor’s treatment for back pain is
-pain-killers and anti-inflammatory, which will
jack-up your stomach.
Next, physical therapy, and if that
doesn’t work, surgery.

As we age our flexibility decreases and
our joints lose their range of motion.
This can cause tightness, spasms and a
number of back problems.

You can regain and maintain the
flexibility, as well as prevent nagging
back pain in only a few minutes a day.
I have unlocked stiff painful muscles in
only a few minutes with the right exercises
and nipped back pain in the bud with
long-term relief.

Here are a few exercises I recommend
that have worked wonders for
me and many of my patients:

1. Lying on the floor, place your right foot on the left knee.
Using your left hand, gently pull your right knee
towards the floor, twisting your spine and keeping
the left arm straight out, hips and shoulders on the floor.
Switch sides. Repeat 10 times.

2. Lie on your back and
bend both knees. Feet flat
on the floor, arms out at shoulder level.
Now, let your knees
drop to the left and turn your head to the right.
Repeat on the right side.
Repeat 25 times on both sides

3. Lie on the floor and place
your hands behind your head
with your legs touching each other
straight out. Begin to move your
Upper body from side to side.

4. Get a large rubber ball, around 3 feet
(you can find them at most sport stores).
Sit on the ball and then slowly
start to lie down on your back using the ball
for support. Lie on the ball from 1 to 3 minutes.

People are always pulling their backs
out, but if you get on a
good maintenance program and do the
correct exercises,
you can end your back pain forever.

Years ago, I hurt my back doing a flip on a trampoline
and no mater what I did I couldn’t seem to shake the pain.

I researched everything I could find about
back injuries and put together a program that really
works to keep the body flexible and pain free.

Don’t Ever Let your Emotions Steal your Power

Saturday, August 6th, 2011

I had a young woman come in to my office who felt
that she wasn’t getting enough attention.

She felt like nobody was paying any attention to
her at all.
She was mad and hated her life.

I asked her what was going on, and she told me that
the other night she went to the restaurant with her
friends and the waiter would only talk to her girl friend.
He was a young strapping lad and she wanted to be
acknowledged but he gave her no attention.
This invoked the emotion of anger, jealousy,
worry and she felt worthless.

The following day, she was at work and the guy
who washes the cars texted her and asked her
if she wanted her car washed.
She said she wasn’t sure and before she knew it,
he was texting everyone else in the office and asking
them if they wanted their car washed.
This infuriated her again.

Today when I saw her, her energy was down,
she was angry, and literally hated herself and her life.
I asked her, how she felt and she said,
“I feel horrible, nobody is paying any attention to me!”

I told her a story about a friend of mine that owns a
Siamese cat.
Everyday after work, the girl would come home and
pet the cat.
The cat would purr, and rub its body against its master.
One day, the housecleaner came to the house and brought
her child, who was only 8 months old.
The cat became completely jealous and hissed and pissed
on the floor.
That’s exactly what she has been doing.
The same as the jealous cat.

I told her,you are letting situations in your life turn your
power into stress.
It’s time to transform it now and Turn Stress into Power.

This is easy to do once you learn how,
you can transform your stress into energy and
that will give you your power back.

Every time we get upset we lose power and energy.
We all strive to get more power, more energy and
she was letting everyday situations steal all of her power.

“At the time of our death, all we have is the amount of
love we have given and the amount of energy we have stored.”
-Rudy

If you want to learn how to store energy I can teach you.
I took the key points from the best teachers I have studied with
and created a program to put you back in charge of your life.

Things like jealousy, anger, worry, struggle and
blame can be changed overnight.
 You can take charge of your life and get your power back.
The Turn Stress Into Power program will change your life forever.

Get it today and turn your stress into Power.

Don’t let insignificant things in your life steal your power.
Get on the program now, and start practicing today.

Opening Up to New Possibilities

Monday, June 20th, 2011
Share

In 1977 I was invited to come
to Park City, Utah with a group
of healers and meditation students
for a month to study with
Virginia Satir.
She was a great psychotherapist, known
especially for her approach to family
therapy.

She was regarded as
The “Mother of Family Therapy.”

When you are working with people,
(No matter if you are doing massage,
medical qi gong or acupuncture)
when you open up to new modalities
in your practice it will make you a
better doctor, healer or therapist.

One of Satir’s most novel ideas at
the time, was the “presenting issue”
or surface problem – that the presenting
issue itself was seldom the
real problem; rather, how people coped
with the issue is what created the problem.
She also offered insights into the
particular problems that self-esteem
could cause in relationships.

Whenever I work with a patient or a
student, I start with a process that
Virginia developed called:

“The Five Freedoms”.

*The freedom to see and hear what is
here, instead of what “should” be, was,
or will be.

*The freedom to say what you feel and think,
instead of what one should.

*The freedom to feel what you feel,
instead of what you “ought.”

*The freedom to ask for what you want,
instead of always waiting for permission.

*The freedom to take risks on your own
behalf, instead of choosing to be only
“secure” and not rocking the boat.

What The Five Freedoms will do
for you is open you to new possibilities
in your life and give you a way to look
at the world differently.

Applying the five freedoms in your
life can give you different twist
to think outside of the box and
free up your stresses.

In the Turn Stress into Power Program
I incorporated the Five Freedoms
in my writing and presented a new way
of looking at stress.
How to use your stresses to transform your
life and get on top of the wave of stress,
instead of being flipped, rolled and pulled
under by every day stresses.

Open up to new possibilities in
your life and order the program today.
It will transform your Stress into Power.

Sleep, Stress and your Digestion system

Thursday, March 3rd, 2011

Today I suggested to Mary that she starts a
regular exercise program.
Although she looked at me like I was nuts,
she thought it was a good idea.

She asked me, what would be the best time
to exercise and I told her the first thing
in the morning. She said,
“I can’t get up in the morning and I always
wakes up tired.” I asked her what time she
goes to sleep and she told me
2:30 to 3:30 in the morning almost every day.

Mary said.” That’s the only time I can get
anything done -the time when my kids are
asleep and so is my husband.”

Mary went on to say that she has no energy
throughout the day and even though she is
in her early thirties she feels exhausted most
of the time.

This is a special weekend for her because
it’s her husbands birthday and her best
friend’s wedding and she said,
“I can’t wait until it’s all over,
this is going to be a weekend
from Hell.”

Well Mary, quite contrary you are
stressing out your system to the max.

She is going against the golden rules
of having good health.
In Chinese medicine, Yin is night and
Yang is day.

When your sleeping patterns are not in
flow with the natural flow of Yin and Yang you,
are asking for a big upset in your health
mentally, physically and spiritually.

When I was younger, I spent hours
practicing the Martial Arts.
One of the most valuable lessons I
learned was to duck.
If you can duck and avoid the hit,
it makes no difference if a punch or kick,
comes at you at a thousand miles per hour.

If there is no contact you’re cool.
Just like a car or a train, if it
doesn’t hit –you’re okay.

Now, when it comes to being in flow,
you are either in flow or out of flow.
Sleep is very important for your
overall health.

When you sleep too much or too little
you can upset the natural balance.

Believe it or not, improper sleep can
make your entire system toxic,
just like food, water and the air
you breathe.

For the most part, our body processes
things and pulls it out through
the skin, liver, kidneys and lower
intestinal tract.

The problem is that when we get blocked up,
the toxins accumulate in our cells,
blood, tissues and organs.
When they are stored for any length of time
all kinds of health problems rear their ugly
heads.

I hear complaints from patients all of the time.
Things like I have a headache, indigestion,
fatigue, to they can’t fall asleep or loss
of sleep and weight gain.
They are mostly due to a build up and
reabsorb of toxins.

When You Don’t Follow the “Golden Rules” of Health,
You Start To
Break Down The System and Illness
Is Bound To Follow.

That’s when a detox program can save you
from getting sick.
It’s a pre-cursor to longevity.

Detox is short for detoxification and
involves the removing of toxic
substances from your body.

As we age, our bodies are exposed to
so many toxins that our natural
fight mechanism breaks down –
and we experience some form of
dis-ease.

There is a product that I have been
recommending to my patients and
hundreds of them are getting great
results.

It’s called Oxy-hydrate by Qi Essentials.
It oxygenates your body as it detoxes.
Oxy-hydrate magnesium peroxide compound
contains detoxification properties.

A Natural detoxifier Oxy- hydrate works
with nature’s own powerful detoxifiers—oxygen
and minerals —to create the perfect
detoxification.
When your clear of toxins your stress
melts away.

Oxy-hydrate actions quickly aid in the
eradication of harmful substances from
the body. Helping to end stress.

The innovative formula helps put needed
moisture into the Intestine.
It provides superior cleaning ability,
yet it is safe and gentle on all systems.

If you are stressed, blocked up and have
low energy Oxy-hydrate is for you.

The Mango Lady and the Qi Gong Doctor

Hatcher Mangos

Hatcher Mangos

Early Saturday morning around 6:30 , I received a distress call from Mairlynn,  the Mango lady.
I usually don’t get a call from her this early in the growing season.
She is the owner of Hatcher Hill Mango Farm. www.hatchermangohill.com.
It’s a small farm about 3+ acres large with more mangoes than I’ve ever seen.
They are all organically grown, not to mention are the biggest and best darn
mangoes I have ever tasted.

I usually visit the 60 year old farm a few times each season to feast on the mangoes.
Those farmers, in general, are really hard workers – picking, packing and shipping
mangoes is a back breaking job.
In fact, that’s how I became friends with the Hatchers.

It was about 14 years ago when I discovered Hatcher Hill Mango farm.
I was driving up to see my parents and I saw the sign, “Organic Mangoes for sale.”
I drove up the dirt road to the farm, when I got the top of the hill,
I couldn’t believe my eyes, there were tables of the largest mangoes I’ve ever seen.
Man this was a real find, “I love mangoes.”

I jumped out of the car and as I was picking out the mangoes that I wanted,
I heard the Mango Lady say. “My back is really sore.” I told her I could fix that and
within seconds,
I was in the farm house in seconds putting acupuncture needles in the mango lady’s
back and doing Medical Qi Gong.  We’ve been friends ever since.

But, let’s get back to the distress call.
The Mango Lady called and said she could hardly walk, that’s always bad but just
before the mangoes ripen, it’s a really BIG problem.
She said it all hit the fan at the same time and she needed some help.
I got into the “Chi-mobile” and drove up to the farm in Boynton Beach.

It’s true, STRESS can cause more health problems that lifting heavy boxes
of mangoes all day or any physical work.
So, I had a long chat with the Mango Lady about stress
and what it does to people.

Stress is the # 1 killer in the USA – causing more heart problems, cancers,
mental and emotional problems than anything else.

We went over exercises and relaxation techniques together that are in my
“Turn Stress into Power Program.”
We worked for about half an hour on the meditations and the internal exercises,
to turn those stresses around and use them to her advantage.

Long story short, by the time I left Hatcher Hill, she was feeling 100% better!
So why not turn your personal stress into power too?  It’s as easy as one, two – FREE!

Get your personal copy of  the “Turn Stress Into Power” book and DVD and
get on the free conference call, also you will
receive two free tickets to the workshop –  “completely FREE with purchase”.

Tuned in or Stressed Out?

Friday, December 11th, 2009

It’s a joy to have lunch with Brenda.

She’s always a bundle of energy and knowledge

and a pleasure to spend some time with.

 

She’s an international advisor to many

movie stars, political and a host of other

influential people.

 

Brenda was telling me that there are an

increasing number of people born from

1941 to 1954 that are totally freaked out

about getting older.

One would think getting older is a good

thing considering the other option.

 

This is causing a worldwide health dilemma

for people that we have never seen in such

high numbers before.

                   

  MAJOR STRESS IS THE PROBLEM!

 

The amount of stress that people are experiencing

is causing an unheard of disruption to the immune

system and secondary diseases are showing their

ugly heads.

 

She claims this is due to people being inflexible

and resisting change both in their body and mind.

 

She asked me, Dr Wu, What you think about this

increasing dilemma?

“Well from both a medical and energetic level

I’d say that Stress is the number one killer in

the world and it leads to most health problems

it causes the biggest and quickest break down

of the body, mind and spirit and is a major

cause of ageing.

 

If we knew how to use the energy behind stress

we would not be suffering from anxiety, worry,

and struggle or blaming others for our problems.”

 

Most of us have a tendency to have stressful

situation in our life. Maybe it’s nature’s way

to teach us. But if stress has you by the short hairs

you’re ageing too quickly.

 

Stress seems to comes in like a big wave that

rolls over our head and bounces us like a

basketball on the ocean floor.

By the time we know what happened we are gasping for

breathe, flat on our face with our trousers down to

our knees filled with sand.

 

STRESS can be used as a very powerful tool

to change our entire life. It will increase energy,

keep you healthy, powerful and you’ll be able to accomplish

more than you could imagine.

 

That is, Once you know how to use it.

 

Every week people come into my office and have some

issue that’s affecting their health and blocking

their energy.

They are needlessly in torment suffering from one

thing or another. Usually self induced.

 

We all desire to live a long healthy life and

I believe that with the right education and coaching

we can all have it.

 

Most of our bad health issues can be trained out

of the body just the way they have been train

in over the years.

 

I wish you the Best in Health, Wealth and

Happiness

 

Dr. Wu Dui

 

PS. I have some exciting news

that I will be sending you tomorrow to transform

It’s 5:00 a.m.  and I am up and ready to go. They switched the
time to daylight savings in the USA it’s an hour earlier on the
clock, but my body is still on the same clock and thinks its
6:00.

We are all just like robots inside we develop habits and then
we go on automatic until so thing or some one changes them.

I was grateful for an extra hour today and I took full
advantage of the time.  Time to workout, meditate and just
relax before I jumped back into life at the office.

 What a beautiful fall morning, you know that kind of day where
the climate is mild and conducive to life or growth, cool yet
at the same time balmy.

Later I was talking to one of my patients and she said” I have
so much to do I don’t know where to start, I am really
stressed.”

I started to explain what the stress is doing to her. “This
puts a burden on the heart and affects the mind as well. It
causing you to chase your tail, lose your power and you could
be headed for a real melt down if you don’t make some changes
now. “If you are one of those people who have so many things to
do, can’t sleep, rushing around but you get less done than you
want listen up, this is for you.”

There is a way to bring it all backs to a normal pace and
regain your power and energy.

There is powerful practice that you can be doing to calm the
heart and opening up the emotions blockages in the heart at the
same time.

In Chinese medicine they say the heart controls the mind and
gives rise to the emotions of arrogance, cynicism, pride,
impatience, agitation, nervousness, when it is disturbed or out
of balance.

This is time to place your attention on these issues before
they get out of control. If you have the Recharging Qi Gong
package turn to page 98 and get cracking.

If you haven’t gotten your set of the two DVD’s the book and
the four Cd’s plus the Free booklet, what are you waiting for?

In the program you will find a set of exercises that will
balance the heart and the mind in a mater of a few minutes.

These powerful exercises have only been taught so far to a few
hundred students on the entire planet. AND you can only get it
here -> http://rechargingqigong.com

Learn the importance of the heart exercise and how to take
advantage of the yin qualities of the heart energy.

 I have put together a special organ cleansing set of exercises
to keep all of your internal organs healthy though the fall and
to prepare your immune system for the winter.

The only way to get these exercises is to become a Qi Gong
Inner Circle MEMBER and I’ll send you a DVD every month and get
you on a group call every month to coach you along all for
about the price of a half a tank of gas but I don’t know how
much longer I will keep this offer open.

I think people are starting to realize that the teachings I
give out just keep going and I’m always focusing on the next
lesson I’m not back tracking so get on board before it passes
you by.

The True Purpose of Halloween

Saturday, November 1st, 2008
Share

As I left for the office this morning I saw a young woman
dressed as a witch walking down the street with a pointy hat
and long green hair but instead of a long gown she was wearing
what looked like a bikini top and a very short skirt. Not the
kind of witch I remember seeing growing up but this is Miami
after all.

Pumpkin2007[1].jpg

I do think the whole Halloween thing is fun and has a purpose.
Sure Halloween is a time for little kids to get candy and have
a fun time we all know that but there is a deeper meaning that
is more for adults.

The reason why Halloween is so popular is because of what is
deep inside of all of us; it’s not limited to any one culture. 

Every culture on the planet has the idea of ghosts, goblins,
and everything else spooky. There is a name for “ghost”
and “witch” in almost every language.

Every culture has a traditional harvest celebration as the fall
passes into winter and we prepare for winter. In ancient times
the thought of winter alone was very scary.

Every culture has some sort of tradition for honoring the dead.
From the view of Chinese Medicine this is natural and has to do
with the changing of the seasons. As the nights become visibly
shorter and cooler we are reminded of our own mortality,
vulnerabilities and fear.

So we have a party and buffoon our own fears, play games, stay
up late, tell ghost stories and make being scared fun.

I saw a news story that said even though people were tightening
down their own spending because of the bad economy people were
spending MORE money this year on Halloween and parties and it
makes sense.

People are so freaked out these days with the economy, real
estate, troubles overseas and the election we need a break more
than ever.

Whether you call it Sowen, Teng Chieh, All Hallows Eve, Dia Del
Muerte, All Saints Day, Halloween or whatever, make the most of
it.

Take a moment and consider all the things you fear, fear
losing, or have already lost and miss dearly and consider what
it would take to smile or even laugh in the face of that.

Take a moment and breathe deeply and remember that there’s
something going on here beyond you. Your heart beats when you
don’t pay attention. Your lungs work even when you forget. All
the organs of the body are working to keep you alive every
moment of the day. It’s magical.

Take a moment and laugh be grateful that something is working
to keep you alive even if you get stressed out or captivated by
fear.

You can learn to consciously release stress, tension, and fear
and work on the behalf of your body but you have to first face
it, smile and let go.

Once you do that you can begin to work on the same side as your
body and bring even greater energy and happiness throughout
your body and your life. It’s what I do, it’s the nature of my
Medicine and the way I teach.

I’m giving out new teachings every month and sending out a DVD
every month along with a follow-up conference call every month
but it is only available to the members of the Inner Circle. I
had few new members sign up yesterday (welcome aboard!) and as
promised I’m sending them the DVD and recorded call with the 9
point rooting and grounding meditation in addition to all the
monthly goodies.

Plus 2009 Inner Circle members are going to get even more free
products in the next few months to test drive before I release
them to the general public.

I am in the process of preparing for the 2009 Qi Gong Inner
Circle and updating the website but I’m going to allow another
27 people in but seats are going fast. Sign up at
http://qigonginnercircle.com now, you can get a seat for the
whole 2009 program just by ordering at the monthly price.

Have a spooky good time tonight,
