Heart failure is a condition in which the heart can't pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. Heart failure does not mean that your heart has stopped or is about to stop working. It means that your heart is not able to pump blood the way it should. It can affect one or both sides of the heart, and can also be diagnosed in various stages.
The weakening of the heart's pumping ability causes:
- Blood and fluid to back up into the lungs
- The buildup of fluid in the feet, ankles and legs - called edema
- Tiredness and shortness of breath
Common causes of heart failure are coronary artery disease, high blood pressure and diabetes. It is more common in people who are 65 years old or older, African Americans, people who are overweight, and people who have had a heart attack. Men have a higher rate of heart failure than women.[i]
CHF is a Body Massage Precaution/Contraindication. It is thought that circulatory body massage increases the body’s circulation. In CHF, the heart is already failing to process its existing circulation; therefore, increasing the circulation on a failing organ could be harmful. There is disagreement upon experts whether this CHF precaution/contraindication should be exercised for acute cases only, or if all chronic and acute CHF should be treated the same. We advise speaking to the client’s medical physician and ask them for approval to increase circulation through bodywork or massage in their CHF client.

ROBIA HAYES - December 17, 2025
hello everyone, I am Robia Hayes from Texas, USA. I want to share a testimony of how Dr. Harry’s herbal mixture cream saves me from shame and disgrace, my penis was a big problem to me as the size was really so embarrassing,and I was also having a weak erection problem. I can make love to my wife and my penis was just too small. A full grown man like me has a 4 inches penis and to worsen it i don’t last in sex i cant even last two minutes. It was really a thing of shame to me. My wife was really tired of me because my sex life was very poor,she never enjoyed sex,i was always thinking and searching for solutions everywhere until when i saw a testimony of Dr. Harry. herbal mixture cream has been helping people regarding their sex life, so i decided to give him a try and visited his website https://drharrysolutionhea.wixsite.com/healinghome and to my greatest surprise in less than two weeks of taking the herbs my penis grew to 8 inches. I couldn’t believe my eyes and as i speak now my penis is now 11 inches and i do not have a weak erection again. I can make love to my wife longer in bed. And my marriage is now stable,my wife now enjoys me very well in bed.

ATTENTION PLEASE!!! Am so glad to be expressing my profound gratitude to a man that is so concerned about other people’s well being. I was suffering from (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS TYPE II) The doctors keep telling me that there is no cure but i believe that there is a cure somewhere and they don’t want people to get cured. I tried searching online if I could see anything that will help me and a comment on YouTube on how Dr Omofuma help to cure herpes with herbs and i also saw so many comments about him on many web pages on how he had helped and cured so many people suffering from HERPES , HPV, CANCER, HIV/AIDS, COLD SORE etc. So I contacted him through his email and I shared my problems with him and he sent me the herbs through UPS and gave me instructions on how to use it. It took me two weeks to finish the herbs and after I finished using it, he told me to go for a medical test, behold the result was negative, now I am HERPES VIRUS free. I just want to use this platform to thank Dr Omofuma for curing me from that horrible disease and also for exposing his herbal cure to the world at large, please you can as well contact Dr Omofuma on his email below.

I was struggling financially until I met a Spell Caster called Dr Oniha. Desperate for a change, I turned to their powerful lottery spell. Dr Oniha performed the ritual, and I waited anxiously for the results. A few days later, I received an email from the lottery commission – I had won the jackpot! I’m forever grateful to Dr Oniha for changing my life. Their spell was potent, and their guidance was invaluable. If you’re seeking good fortune, I highly recommend Dr Oniha. Their spells are effective, and their love for their clients is evident. My life is now filled with abundance and joy, all thanks to Dr Oniha. You can contact him directly through his contacts address.
