knee massage

If you are having trouble with your knees this is something easy to try. I had a friend who did it regularly for 2 weeks and saw a great improvement is lubrication and mobility.

We are going to use the magic sesame oil that has been cured to increase it viscosity. Curing the oil mean that you take a good quality organic sesame oil and add 1 drop of water to it and then heat it - once the oil reaches 100 degrees celcius the water with start to crackle - stop heating immediately otherwise the oil will overheat and can burst into flame.

Now cool the oil and  keep it is a sealed container for your massages. If using on the knees rub the oil into the knees round and round on the knee caps and also to the dimples behind the knees in a clock wise fashion. This needs to be done for 10-15 minutes twice a day for best results. I have seen some research that indicates that they can actually pick up the oil in the joint after the massage.

Pacifies Vata which tends to be held in limbs and joints.
