Folklore has it that it has a stunning effect on male impotence. They now call it Peruvian Viagra.

REFLEXOLOGY
Reflexologist's contend that a ) by exercising points on the body to support it in relaxing and reducing stress is one way to combat E.D. And, b) by pressing points on the insides and outsides of the ankles can stimulate the sexual organs and urinary tract.
Reflexologist's also believe that by stimulating the proper trigger points that increased blood flow can be achieved, leading to an erection. Like acupuncture this may take more than one visit, so make it a commitment of ten sessions before abandoning it.
ROLFING
Rolfing has now joined the American lexicon of new words meaning "Deep Tissue". This is an 11 session physical treatment process that goes throughout your body and realigns it structurally. In the process your ability to breathe more fully is demonstrated in the first session. An increase in more oxygen circulating in the body equals greater strength and vitality.

Sanlida's more powerful effects occur in the regeneration of brain cells. Strengthening male sexuality and slowing the aging process and enhancing longevity.
