Readers will likely be
familiar with the saying “the enemy isn’t outside of us but lies within”, a
reality as old as the days of the Trojan horse. The suffix “itis” attaches itself to the names
of parts of the body undergoing various forms of inflammation. One may suffer
from tendinitis,
which is an inflammation of a tendon, or bursitis,
an inflammation of a fluid filled sac which assists in joint mobility… and such
like. Our interest today is directed toward the mouth, in particular the gums.
An
impatient reader: “This leaves me incredulous! In one post, he’s discussing the
history and importance of the Dojo Kun,
the precepts of the training hall, and now he’s slacking off somewhere into…gum
disease!” He shows nothing but contempt for The
Way!”
Hold on just a moment, please…healing and martial arts are
inseparable, and have been so for eons. Healing is an expression of
benevolence, and therefore lies at the heart of The Way. Healing is knowledge,
and acting upon that knowledge. Martial knowledge and the knowledge of healing,
they’re not kindred spirits per se, they…like The Way…are one.
My
rant is over. Let’s return to the inside of our mouths. Gingivitis is a periodontal disease often caused by a reaction
to bacterial plaque which, if it isn’t addressed, may lead to periodontitis which
in turn may lead to tooth loss. Obviously, treatment is important.

then are seven acupoints of which most if not all will be familiar to readers
who train in pressure point strikes, grips, and the like but an obvious detail about
administering any type of pressure to these points is…don’t hurt yourself doing it. Press lightly while experimenting
with the angle of pressure. Don’t press for a second and shout up to the rooftops:
“I’m cured…I’m cured of all that ails me!” because, for one thing, it won’t be true,
and secondly, flower pots will rain down on your head in reply.
I’ve found, especially when
working with non-martial artists in industrial settings, that out of seven
points, SI 2 or SI 4 will be the cat’s meow for Sandra over in production
whereas for Vladimir back in shipping, ST 4 is more important to him then a
weekend in Vegas. So do try all seven – while you’re on the phone making that
all important dental appointment – and see which one feels the most
comfortable, and which dutifully begins to channel away the redness in the gums
and the swelling near the teeth.
