A Healing Remedy


For the last year and a half my mom has been experiencing serious body aches, pains, weakness, and swelling. These are only but a few of the symptoms she has been experiencing. After seeing many Doctors, dieticians and alternative medicine professionals there have been several assumptions as to what might be the illness. Suggestions include lymes disease, arthritis and pesticides in food could be causing a reaction in my moms body.

I am a strong believer in natural remedies and healing. As my mom visits countless professionals one comment she has made from day one of all of her treatments was the unsettling feeling she has when a Doctor gives her a prescription for unnatural drugs to deal with her illness. What is even more unsettling is the fact that they are giving her drugs for only assumptions for what she has. With a smoresborg of drugs that have been prescribed I decided to stop by a local tea house called Seven Cups. The staff is always quite knowledgable about what healing benefits a certain tea might have. I explained my moms symptoms to the Tea Specialist.

The recommendation lead me to a chinese Tuocha Tea where the tea leaves are compressed into a nugget shape, is rich in flavor and provides a dark brew. This tea is suggested to help will swelling of the muscles and easing joint pain. Although my mom is not much of a drinker of alcohol one could also use this concoction to help ease the pain of a hangover.

Rose buds were also reccommended for her ailments as well as rolling the hot cup between her hands. Along with these two tea options and suggestions I purchased a filter cup which was called Lucky Fu. Hopefully these tea selections will help to provide the luck she needs in her healing process or comfort her as much as possible for the time being.
