Physical Problem or Fashion Sense?

Now that I think I've caught everyone's eye with a 'what the frell is he talking about', I will elaborate.

Let's talk about women's breasts (and no, I'm not trying to be sexist here). Over the years, I have found a comical anecdote when scanning women (and I'm not making any blonde jokes here). Generally, before I work on a subject, I will sight scan them first. Then I might go back over and hand scan them. (This scanning is where one runs their hand a few inches above someone looking for either temperature changes, or to be drawn to an area.)

When I hand scan, I know that (to me) cold areas are where a problem is (this differs with every person). I have many times in scanning a woman's chest area found her breasts to be cold. Sometimes only one is cold, sometimes both, sometimes neither. When I sense cold in one, then I believe there is a problem. When I sense cold in both, I have one question that I ask 'are you wearing an underwire bra?'

Go on laugh. It's true. Underwire bras have metal (and I'm now told plastic) in them to support the breasts. Now, I don't believe that I am sensing the metal. I think this because I get the cold sensation over most of the breast, not just where the wire is. I believe that the wire, in keeping the support, does hold the breasts a little differently, which makes them irritated. After long hours, I can believe that the breasts hurt. (Ladies, you will have to tell me this as fact or not, seeing as I don't wear a bra that often, and never an underwire.)

I just find it funny that about 99% of the time that I have sensed 'problems' in both breasts, it has been due to an underwire bra. And this is true in cases where I didn't think my subject was wearing an underwire bra, or a bra at all. You should see some of the looks I get from subjects when I ask them that. It's like "I'm here for energy and you're asking what I'm wearing?" Once I explain, and they answer yes, then they think I'm either very psychic, or very good. Now who am I to argue with the opinions of a client?

So, laugh if you will, but if you're a practitioner, and you sense problems in both breasts, ask your subject. You may be surprised. If not, then it is a good anecdote, and you can have a good laugh.

Take care. May light be with you.
