Healing with Pressure Point Therapy: Simple, Effective Techniques for Massaging Away More Than 100 Annoying Ailments

This book has helped immensely in the relief of my neck and shoulder pain. I have used accupuncture successfully, however, that is very expensive on a continuous basis. This book has simple to understand diagrams and instructions to follow. The nice part is that I use the book when I need it, not having to wait to see an accupuncturist. I highly recommend it.

When I bought this book, I was looking for a book that would teach me how to perform accupressure on myself or others. Jack Forem's book does this, and more: it also covers basic reflexology, Shiatsu, and contains sections with "additional suggestions" to speed recovery. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants something practical about accupressure on their bookshelf.

This is a complete, well balanced and easy to read guide on the subject. I have used the book's "A to Z" guide several times in the past few weeks to "self treat" localized symptoms. The illustrations make it very easy for anyone to figure out where the important points are. The authors walk you through the whole process step by step. Ahhhhh! Temporary relief from localized pain every time I tried the book's recommendations. And the "energy tune up" section alone is worth the price of the book. There is even a section on beauty secrets! I also found the "additional suggestions" section that follows every topic area particularly helpful. Finally...the perfect holiday season gift for all my achey breaky friends.

I've read many books on acupressure and other forms of pressure point massage but this book, more than any of the others, has had a profound effect on my health and my relationship with the world around me. It's not just a book on how to, but a guide and teaching tool to live life more fully. I urge everyone to read it. It helps.

Hooray! Finally, a highly trained expert in the field has written a superb book on acupressure that is head-and-shoulders above all other such books in print. This book provides a beautifully written, easy to understand summary of the basics of Chinese medicine, plus a clear, well illustrated guide to acupressure, shiatsu, and reflexology for almost any disease you can think of.
