radiation hormesis

Okay, here is a new possibility for treating dupuytrens.
It appears that one can find radiated stones and use low-dose radiation on the hand with these stones. I've read 2 testimonials that were very positive. Prolonged low-dose radiation exposure appears to stimulate the immune system and reduce nodules.
Google it and check it out. Does anyone know about this technique???

Re: radiation hormesis

I Googled it. Interesting. Can't imagine how one could determine how much radiation was being delivered. I'd love to radiate my hand with a blue topaz. One the size of a golf ball would be easy to roll the hand on, and I'd have the big blue topaz, too :-)

Re: radiation hormesis

Treating diseases with stones is an old therapy, probably rooting back in the stone age. It's romantic, it's funny but it's useless.The speculation about a generally healthy effect of very low dose radiation is speculative and nothing else. You can find individual success stories for any therapy but that doesn't tell anything. These are, at best, individual anecdotes, though I am afraid that many of these stories might be inventions of marketeers trying to sell their useless stuff by presenting success stories.

Radiation hormesis is NOT a treatment for Dupuytren's (and probably for nothing else either). There is no scientific evidence whatsoever for its effectiveness. The additional combination with stones, i.e. the idea that radiated stones would themselves produce healthy radiation, is ridiculous.
