SWT — स्वेट · sweat
With this treatment we stimulate the medulla part inside the adrenal gland.
It is also useful for stimulating the sweat glands.
Place both palms standing on their edge on both sides of the T6–T12 beads, and with the edge of the hands give a little pressure inward to the nerves and muscles at the side of the beads, pressing and releasing as many times as the number written. If (6) Swt is written, press and release 6 times.
If Left Swt is to be given, place the right palm completely flat on the right side of the bead, and keep only the left palm standing on edge, giving pressure straight downward with its edge. If Right Swt is to be given, place the left palm completely flat on the left side of the bead, and keep only the right hand standing on edge and give pressure.

"Standing on their edge" is the whole technique. The hand is turned onto its little-finger border, the way you would chop a vegetable, and set in the gutter beside the beads — a narrow line where a flat palm would spread the force. Both hands stand so for plain Swt, the pressure running inward, toward the column.
When one side alone is written, the other hand changes job entirely. For Left Swt the right palm goes down completely flat and stays there, and only the left works — and because the flat palm holds the spine steady, the pressure at Lt. and Rt. Swt is straight downward rather than inward. Three written forms, not one treatment given to one side.
What lies beneath. In the gutter either side of the T6–T12 beads lie the long upright muscles, the short slanting ones beneath, and the nerves supplying both. The sympathetic chain, which does reach the adrenal medulla, runs at these levels — but down the front of the vertebrae, on the far side of the bone from any hand on a back. The therapy has named the right system and the wrong side of it. The sweat half of the name is better founded: sweat glands really are governed by that same chain, segment by segment down the trunk.
