I don't know if the HCG discussion is still on going but...
I have clients on HCG and one has found a lotion at the health food store that doesn't contain any oils. It is water based but as you use it , it dries up pretty quickly..so I dip my fingers into some warm water to bring the lotion back to slipability..is that a word..lol..I will have to get the exact lotion name for you when I see her again... she brings it with her. Plus...does anyone use essential oils for massage? I love them and use different ones according to the needs each person presents.

Kathie, we used cornstarch for reflexology, and I've been told that baby powder (talc) is a good "dry lubricant" for a full-body massage -- I've not used baby powder, but the source of the information was a teacher whose information I trust.

I had no idea! Kathie maybe you should post this questions to every one on the general forum and someone might be able to give you/us some insight.
Mike suggested a while ago working with baby powder or baking powder..???.. but i think the ingredients there might not be good either...

Hcg is a hormone injection that is used for weight loss. There is an entire protocol for the use of it. (very extensive) I believe that it's used for fertility as well.

Do tell, what is HcG?
Comment by Eeris Kallil CMT on September 6, 2009 at 2:30pm
Kathy sorry I am not familliar with HcG. Is it a medication?
Comment by Kathie Young on September 4, 2009 at 2:33pm
Hi all - I have a rather odd question . . . I am wondering if anyone know anything about HcG. When using it (the hcg) you aren't supposed to use oils and lotions on the skin. So, any massage would be dry - which I am not fond of!) I have 2 clients that are using Hcg now and want to know if I know of anything they could use. I think its the chemicles as well as the fat absorbed from the skin.
Any suggestions??
