A(Very) Alternative way of Alkalizing

We had a visit this morning from a German chap. He was around sixty and looked healthy. He was interested in getting his own water alkalizer, but he told us a story of his father's alkalizing method. It seems that Germany's alternative health practitioners have known all about this for many, many years.

Our new friend's father used it when he came back from WW2. The method was surprising, to say the least, but he swore by its efficacy. Apparently the therapist firstly cups the skin to bring blood to the surface and then uses a blade to scratch the skin and draw blood!

Thank God for alkaline water!

I saw this 'blood letting' process done in China. It was horrifying and I am not one to be faint hearted!!
