Siblings/Friends as Subordinate/Partner

It is always not advisable to have siblings or friends to be working in close proximity in your own company as subordinate or partner but it is alright with working in other companies both as employees.

When you are the boss of the company and the children are your subordinates, the working relationship is a comfortable one as it resembles a father and children relationship. However, if the subordinates/partner are your own siblings or close friends, any serious conflict in work will be damaging to sibling relationship or friendship if the siblings or friends do not distinguish between a working and a family relationship or friendship. The result will usually ends in loss of a family relationship or friendship.

Danger of Electric Fan

All standard fan blades are designed to tilt clockwise inwards towards the rear fan motor and also rotate in a clockwise direction. A finger placed through the protective guard from the front will not cause any serious injury but minor abrasion of the skin.

However, if the finger is placed through the protective guard from the back of the fan motor, the fan blade becomes a razor sharped cutting tool which can cut off the finger if the fan speed is very fast.

Relief lower back pain during sleep

Adjust the pillow height with large hard covered books to reduce the pain of the backbone especially the lumbar region in a back sleeping position.

A slightly raised head/neck position will cause the upper thoracic to bend slightly making the lumbar more relax and straighter, supported by the mattress. As the lumbar becomes stress free, there will be less pain in the lumbar after waking up from sleep.

One of the reason why some people without injuries always have lumber pain is because of spinal curvature have worsen due to osteoporosis or degeneration of the backbone, poor standing and sitting postures and habits. Cold drinks, foods and fruits also cause rheumatic pain in the lower back.

Testing the result of treatment without equipment

Generally after the treatment of joint pain; sprain of ankles; injury to the vertebra or back bone, etc, it is sometimes difficult to determine the result of the treatment other than verbal enquiries with the clients.

One way to determine the result of the treatment is to perform a vibratory percussion directly on and around the area that is treated using a clamp fist or the palm. As all the joints and backbone are connected with sensory nerves, any discomfort or pain when percussed will indicate that the problems have not been completely cure.
