Hijole!!! I only had to deal with emulsion of castor oil (for anemia), Creomulsion (for chest colds), and bathing in a tub of rosemary twigs when I got the measles as a kid!!
I’m surprised no enterprising Mexican has tried to market a sobada, along the lines of goat yoga if nothing else. I’m sure there are health benefits to be claimed.
Qué recuerdos. Antes de la sobada, mi mamá me regañaba y reclamaba que estaba enfermo por haber visto la televisión todo el día. No importaba si era la cabeza, el estomago o los píes. La televisión era la culpable.

One of my Portuguese mother’s home remedies was hot vinegar with sugar. I strongly suspect that’s the reason why I have never liked the taste of wine.

Um … I don’t really know any Spanish, so I have to guess…. Does uña de gato mean what I think it means? I do know gato means cat….
