COMBATTING THE ACCUMULATION OF URIC ACID
This is often a long drawn-out battle. If simple remedies such as parsley tea are not enough to ease your painful limbs and joints, take a herbal bath using any herbs you have available. When you check your stock of herbs in the spring, planning to gather fresh ones, use what you have left in your baths, or make an infusion of cut grass and add this to the bath. Make sure the water is around blood heat (37 °C/98.6 °F); remain completely submerged, with only your nose visible, for 10, 15 or 20 minutes, even as long as half an hour. Have someone turn on the hot water so that the temperature can slowly rise to 38 °C (100 °F), and if you can stand it, to 39 °C (102 °F), following the Schlenz method (see pages 433-6). While submerged, have someone brush you vigorously with a stiff brush. If you take this bath once a week, you will be rid of your aches and pains.
