Can somone tell me how to relieve or cure an hiatus hernia

I'll probably get some static for this, but, yes, depending on the severity of the hernia. Often times a person who has trouble venting anger will develop a hiatal hernia. I don't know if this is you. I also don't know your age, etc.
I will suggest a couple of methods Steven Horne AHG teaches and which I have suggested to a couple of clients.
Steven says, in the morning before you eat, on an empty stomach to drink about a pint (or more) of room temperature water with a dropper full of lobelia. Then standing on your toes drop to your heels several times. He suggests that doing this regularly will help pull the stomach back down. He also suggests a couple other moves. If you go to www.treelite.com and order his DVD on Fibromialgia he shows these exercises.
As for the sphincter valve itself I don't know if there is much short of surgery that can be done. These exercises should bring relief, however.

Thanks for the tip, I will try it out in the morning. I am 64 living in the uk and a doctor has told me there is no gurantee that the surgery will be a lasting success, that is why I am looking for a natural way to cure myself

Great! If that exercise proves to be too difficult you may want to adopt another one. I am 63 and though I'm in pretty fair shape I don't think standing on my toes and dropping to my heals would feel so good. But then again, I don't have a hiatal hernia either. If you have steps you can jump down steps(one at a time of course) and do the same thing but that might be difficult.
On the DVD Steven shows how to actually pull the stomach down and remember, this will require maintainence.
I know of a friend who had a very bad one with his stomach twisted around his esophegus (?spelling). It was a tough surgery but so far so good. I had warned him of his hernia a couple of years before but he did nothing about it.
You'll want to work on this because it can cause breathing problems and it can even cause your heart to go into arithmea. Most people don't know that. Of course, it has to get pretty bad to do that. A client who has recently had those kind of problems asked her heart doctor if I was correct and he told her that I am. Anyway, I wish you the best. Take care.

I don't have any personal experience, but here's a site where the doctor suggests a massage technique that may help.

Thanks for that kind 2 creatures

thanks for the info kevin

j.pearey, I thought I'd add just a little information to help you and anyone else that may read this post because a hiatal hernia is nothing to take lightly.
Many people with chronic dis-ease have a hiatal hernia and don't even know it. It can cause, not only digestive problems, but the resulting conditions of those digestive problems. If it gets bad enough it can cause irregular heartbeat and breathing problems. It effects the intake of oxygen and can lower our immune system. There's a multitude of problems that can result from a hiatal (hiatus) hernia.
Also, I have learned from Steven Horne AHG that many people who have a hiatal hernia also are having a problem with the ileocecal valve. One way to check is to find the spot about half way between the belly button and the bony protrusion on the right hip. Press deeply and if there is pain, the ileocecal valve is probably not closing. If this valve does not close it can cause backup into the small intestine, which can result in even more problems. If you find you have pain when pressing, rub that area in small circular motions until the pain stops. At this point the valve will be closed but you'll probably have to do it each day for a few weeks.
May God bless!
