Bones In The Sand
The ice age was probably brought about by changes in weather due initially to global warming and the removal of vegetation, for example the giant freshwater lake in Canada released onto the ocean surface down the St Lawrence river is thought to have caused the Atlantic conveyor system that drives not only the ocean currents but the world’s weather to grind to a halt, this is said to have caused a catastrophic drop in temperature following the warming that released it.Here again the temperatur...

IMPORTANT INFLUENZA INFORMATION
IMPORTANT INFLUENZA INFORMATIONMy wife and I tilted our bed at the end of 1994, raising it by 6 inches at the head end, 7 inches on a US bed, arriving at the angle by observing circulation improvements at the given angle.

Home Alone, a poem by Andrew K Fletcher
Home AloneTick tock mental block time to take stockHands pass chimes while sunshine faltersDay dulls grey in shadows hidingsNoisy strangers shout then quiet stiflesAlong razors edge walks humanitySanitized thoughts testing patient sanityJuggling balanced along life's takingsTempers stifled in rulers makingsCurtain drowns impoverished prideFrosted pain in widow's windowDignity leached with each breathHow we long for our companionCold and lonely comes our deathAndrew K Fletcher 10th October 2009 Read Full Story

Multiple Sclerosis Dropped Foot and a Dehumidifier
Pauline Phelps, a lady with ms who has been helped by sleeping on an inclined bed, found that some mornings her dropped foot would be a problem. Dropped foot happens when the nervous system is compromised between the foot and the brain, in ms it is thought to be caused by plaques in the myelin sheath around the nerves. Yet Pauline began to record the humidity using a simple meter provided by yours truly. Having done so higher humidity appeared to be indicative so a dehumidifier was introduced... Read Full Story

Ancient Healing using Inclined Therapy
We appear to have forgotten many ancient treatments and much ancient logic over time, often replacing it with wholly inadequate but more profitable drugs and surgery. In the Late Tudor Period, people slept sitting up due to so many people laying down and not waking again in the morning following the sweating sickness that ravaged Europe killing many millions of people, including some nobility and even a King.They had no Tamiflu or vaccine to fight the illness, all they had in fact was the pow...

Collapsed Vein and Inclined Therapy.
This should be on the first post.Following a report from a lady with a collapsed vein in the foot who joined the pilot study and found that her circulation in the foot deteriorated due to the incline rather than improving as many had done. It was quickly realised that in the case of a collapsed vein rather than a swollen vein that decreasing the venous pressure as is the case with varicose veins and oedema, the restriction would be further closed.A post from someone on a forum who relates to ...
