The Hammer Method
★★★★★
I had injured my ankle and went to the chiropractor. The next morning I had needle pain in my big toe and a ganglion cyst on the bottom of my foot on the tendon to my big toe! I went back to the chiropractor and he worked on my foot some more. He said the cyst will not go away and I may have to have it drained! OR he said "you could hit it with a hammer"!
I went home and looked it up on line and saw the medical remedy for draining it and blah blah. Then I went on earthclinic.com and saw this treatment.
I used a hammer! It took a lot of whacking and then I iced it! Now it is greatly reduced! Maybe a book gives you a broader surface area for hitting the cyst.
Thank goodness for Earth Clinic.
EC: Hmmm... 17 readers on Earth Clinic used a book, not a hammer, but please share the post where you read about using a hammer for a ganglion cyst!
Vitamin C
★★★★★
I had a ganglion cyst years ago, I took large dose daily of crystal "C". The pain stopped first, then the bump disappeared. A few years later, I was pressured to stop my "C" intake by my GYN, because I was pregnant... Mistake. The ganglion cyst returned, but disappeared after I started by crystal "C" again. Crystal "C" is a high dosage vitamin C. My daughter is now 18 years old, and the cyst has not returned.

Weight Training, Nattokinase
★★★★★
I had a small but slowly growing ganglion cyst just on my wrist at the crease mark area. I tried a few remedies over the past two years that I read on the Earth Clinic site like massage, banging it with a book (hilarious) and rubbing frankincense oil on it every night. Nothing made a dent, just like everyone reports.
Tonight I looked at my wrist and realized my ganglion cyst has COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED! There are only 2 recent changes I have made, so it's either one of the following OR the combination that dissolved the cyst.
1. I started using light weights at the gym for my arms. I do forearm lifts using a 10 lb weight. I have been doing this for the past 2 months, two or three times a week.
2. I take a nattokinase supplement, half dose, every other day. I don't like to take too much of it because it causes a small cut to bleed more than normal. I have also been taking the past few months.
I am very happy about this! I had been told surgery was my only option.
I will update everyone in case I stop doing one or both of these things and it starts to come back or if I can pinpoint whether it was the nattokinase or the weight lifting that dissolved the cyst. For now I can happily report a 100% cure. Yea, ganglion cyst be gone!
