WHEN THE CROW FEELS SICK… IT LOOKS FOR ANTS

Just as you read. When a crow feels unwell, it perches near an ant nest, spreads its wings, stays still, and lets the ants attack it.

They do it for a powerful reason: ants spray its body with formic acid, a substance that acts as a natural antiparasitic. This acid helps the crow eliminate fungi, bacteria, and parasites, allowing it to recover without the need for medicine.

This behavior is called “anting” and has been observed in various bird species. It’s an incredible example of animal self-medication.

Nature never ceases to amaze us with its silent wisdom!

Pichu:
Focus area - depending on the receiver’s condition
A highly effective way of relieving pain and stiffness of joints, as well as muscle cramps, Pichu is a therapy in which a cloth (or ‘Pichu’) is soaked completely in medicated oils or juices, infused with herbs that target the specific medical condition of the receiver, and then placed upon the focus area of the body of the person. The temperature of the medicated liquid can be warm or cool, depending on the the condition that is being treated with the Pichu therapy. The name of the Pichu therapy varies depending on the body part that is the focus - for eg., if the head is the focus, then the treatment is called siro pichu.

Pichu
The warmth of the medicated liquid, as it slowly gets absorbed by the body through the cloth, stimulates the circulation and the nerve endings, assisting efficient absorption of the medication through the body. This process also a great way to lubricate the joints, relieving the stiffness that usually plagues the joints.

Beneficial for:

Pain and stiffness of the joints
Muscle cramps
Headaches (Siro Pichu)
Diseases of the eyes and eyes (Siro Pichu)
Degenerative diseases of vertebral column
