New Trends in Literature: Neuroplasticity and Lesions of the Central Nervous System: Darryl Tracy DscPT
"Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is." Bhagavad Gita 500 B.C.
For many years, the concepts surrounding the function of the nervous system and repair of the nervous system was quite rudimentary and basic. Recently, scientists, philosop titioners have been joining forces to question our knowledge base in surrounding the function of the nervous system and neuroplasticity. This development has spawned a rise in mainstream literature on the topic. This appears as personal stories, case studies as written by scientists and popular scientific books on neuroplasticity.

Hot Stone Therapy: Janice Lauder
Hot stone massage has been reported in history as far back as ancient Egypt. Egyptians even used heated stones to assist during childbirth. Native Indians of North America have widely used stones during rituals and ceremonies. The most familiar way that we know of was that they used them to heat up their Sweat Lodges. The Japanese have also used heated stones for centuries. They were used to alleviate pain by placing them on the troubled areas where they seem to melt away the problem.
