Imithi ehlanganayo yokwelashwa komdlavuza

Uma unomdlavuza, ufuna ukwenza konke okusemandleni ukwelapha umdlavuza futhi uzizwe ungcono. Kungakho abantu abaningi bephendukela kwezokwelapha ezihlanganisayo. Umuthi ohlanganisayo (IM) usho noma yiluphi uhlobo lomsebenzi wezokwelapha noma umkhiqizo ongelona ukunakekelwa okujwayelekile. Kubandakanya izinto ezinjengokutholwa, ukuzindla nokubhucungwa. Ukunakekelwa okujwayelekile komdlavuza kubandakanya ukuhlinzwa, ukwelashwa ngamakhemikhali, ukwelashwa ngemisebe nokwelashwa kwezinto eziphilayo.

Umuthi wokuhlanganisa ukunakekelwa okuhambisanayo okusetshenziswa kanye nokunakekelwa okujwayelekile. Ihlanganisa okungcono kakhulu kuzo zombili izinhlobo zokunakekelwa. I-IM ikhuthaza ukwenziwa kwezinqumo okwabiwe phakathi kwabahlinzeki bokunakekelwa okuvamile nabaphelelanayo neziguli. Yilapho iziguli zithatha indima ebonakalayo ekunakekelweni kwazo njengomlingani nomhlinzeki wazo.

Qaphela ukuthi ezinye izinhlobo ze-IM zingasiza ukuphatha izimpawu zomdlavuza kanye nemiphumela emibi yokwelashwa, kepha akukho okuye kwafakazelwa ukuthi kulashwa umdlavuza.

Ngaphambi kokusebenzisa noma yiluphi uhlobo lwe-IM, kufanele ukhulume nomhlinzeki wakho wezokunakekelwa kwempilo kuqala. Lokhu kufaka phakathi ukuthatha amavithamini nezinye izithasiselo. Ezinye izindlela zokwelashwa ezivame ukuphepha zingaba yingozi kubantu abanomdlavuza. Isibonelo, iSt John's wort ingaphazamisa ezinye izidakamizwa zomdlavuza. Futhi amanani aphezulu kavithamini C angathinta ukusebenza kahle kwemisebe kanye nokwelashwa ngamakhemikhali.

Futhi, akuzona zonke izindlela zokwelapha ezisebenza ngokufanayo kuwo wonke umuntu. Umhlinzeki wakho angakusiza unqume ukuthi ukwelashwa okuthile kungakusiza yini kunokudala ingozi engaba khona.

I-IM ingasiza ekunciphiseni imiphumela emibi ejwayelekile yomdlavuza noma ukwelashwa komdlavuza, njengokukhathala, ukukhathazeka, ubuhlungu, nesicanucanu. Ezinye izikhungo zomdlavuza zize zinikeze lezi zindlela zokwelapha njengengxenye yokunakekelwa kwazo.

Izinhlobo eziningi ze-IM sezifundwe. Lokho okungasiza abantu abanomdlavuza kufaka:

• Ukuthoma. Lo mkhuba wasendulo waseChina ungasiza ekunciphiseni isicanucanu nokuhlanza. Kungasiza futhi ekunciphiseni ubuhlungu bomdlavuza nokushisa okushisayo. Qiniseka ukuthi i-acupuncturist yakho isebenzisa izinaliti eziyinyumba, ngoba umdlavuza ukubeka engcupheni enkulu yokutheleleka.
• I-Aromatherapy. Le ndlela yokwelapha isebenzisa owoyela abamnandi ukuthuthukisa impilo noma imizwa. Kungasiza futhi ekunciphiseni ubuhlungu, isicanucanu, ingcindezi nokudangala. Yize ngokuvamile iphephe, lawa mafutha angadala ukungezwani komzimba, ikhanda, nesicanucanu kwabanye abantu.
• Ukwelashwa kokubhucunga umzimba. Lolu hlobo lomsebenzi womzimba lungasiza ekudambiseni ukukhathazeka, isicanucanu, ubuhlungu nokudangala. Ngaphambi kokuba uthole ukwelashwa kokuhlikihla, buza umhlinzeki wakho ukuthi ngabe umelaphi kufanele agweme noma yiziphi izindawo zomzimba wakho.
• Ukuzindla. Ukuzilolonga ukuzindla kukhonjisiwe ukunciphisa ukukhathazeka, ukukhathala, ukucindezeleka nezinkinga zokulala.
• Ujinja. Leli khambi lingasiza ekunciphiseni isicanucanu sokwelapha umdlavuza lapho sisetshenziswa nemithi ejwayelekile yokulwa nesicanucanu.
• I-Yoga. Lo mkhuba wasendulo womzimba womzimba ungasiza ekunciphiseni ukucindezeleka, ukukhathazeka nokudangala. Ngaphambi kokwenza i-yoga, qiniseka ukuthi ubuza nomhlinzeki wakho ukubona ukuthi ngabe kukhona ukuma noma izinhlobo zamakilasi okufanele uwagweme.
• I-Biofeedback. Lokhu kwelashwa kungasiza ekudambiseni izinhlungu zomdlavuza. Kungasiza futhi ngezinkinga zokulala.

Ngokuvamile, lezi zindlela zokwelashwa ziphephile kubantu abaningi futhi zibeka engcupheni encane yezempilo. Kepha ngaphambi kokuzisebenzisa, kufanele uhlale ubuza umhlinzeki wakho ukuthi ziphephile yini kuwe.

Njengamanje, azikho izinhlobo ze-IM eziye zaboniswa ukusiza ukwelapha noma ukwelapha umdlavuza. Ngenkathi imikhiqizo eminingi kanye nokwelashwa kuthathwa njengezindlela zokwelapha umdlavuza, azikho izifundo ezixhasa lezi zimangalo. Ngaphambi kokuzama noma yimuphi umkhiqizo owenza izimangalo ezinjalo, khuluma nomhlinzeki wakho kuqala. Eminye imikhiqizo ingaphazamisa ezinye izindlela zokwelapha umdlavuza.

Uma ufuna ukuzama ukwelashwa kwe-IM, khetha udokotela wakho ngokuhlakanipha. Nawa amanye amathiphu:

• Buza abahlinzeki bakho noma isikhungo somdlavuza ukuthi bangakusiza yini ukuthola udokotela.
• Buza mayelana nokuqeqeshwa kanye nokuqinisekiswa kwesisebenzi.
• Qiniseka ukuthi umuntu unelayisense lokwenza lokhu kwelashwa esifundazweni sakho.
• Bheka udokotela osebenze nabantu abanohlobo lwakho lomdlavuza futhi ozimisele ukusebenza nomhlinzeki wakho ekwelashweni kwakho.
