Health At Your Fingertips
(Dr.Dhiren Gala)
This book is one of a series of excellent books on effective,
non-medicinal therapeutic measures(like
Acupressure,Acupuncture,Naturopathy,Magnet therapy,Reiki,etc) written
by Dr.Dhiren Gala. The primary focus of the book is on another such
non-medicinal mode called MUDRA Therapy, in which different diseases
are treated by holding and retaining the fingers and the thumbs in
different ways.
Being a miniature universe, the human body is composed of five elements
namely Agni(fire), Vaayu(air),Akaash(space),Prithvi(earth),Jal(water)
represented by the Thumb, Index finger, Middle finger, Ring finger and
the Litttle finger respectively.Good health is a result of a fine
balance of these five elements and an excess or a deficiency of any one
or more of these undermines health and causes disease.
After specifying the guidelines and do's and Don'ts, the author goes on
to mention the methods of performing various MUDRAS(postures of fingers
and thumb) and their consequent effects and benefits along with some
beautiful illustrations.There are mudras for cold,anger, sinusitis,
stress and a whole lot of other conditions.Personally, I have
benefitted from mudras(stress relief and cold) and I perform them(
Uttarabodhi,Pushaan,Vaayu shamak) on a daily basis.
Mudra therapy is safe,effective,simple,inexpensive and easy to
perform. The author however has the humility to state in his preface
that if a disease persists or seems to be getting worse after a
religious practice of mudras, then one ought to consult the family
doctor/physician.
