I bought this book after using the method for hip pain. It worked and the pain has never returned. I think everyone should have this book. It is like have first aid for all kinds of muscle/skeletal problems. It seems to address issues that even chiropratic and other physical therapy doesn't. I intend to buy the DVD too to get more pointers on doing the exercises correctly. Great information about the body!

The methods for stopping pain in this book really work - and in minutes! I highly recommend this book to anyone. Don't wait until you have real problems, use the theory in this book now. I was scheduled for knee replacement surgery, but followed the protocol in this book, plus changed to a more alkaline diet, worked out with weights, and added swimming to my workout. Presto! No surgery.

Attempts to get a good workout before alignment were futile - just causesd injury over and over. After doing the knee and back e-cises, I have no injuries. What a relief to have this "tool".

Now, I look around and see so many people suffering needlessly only because their bodies are out of alignment. What a shame. Conditions worsen as we attempt to be fit while out of alignment. Read this book and do the e-cises. It is effort well spent.

I purchased the book based on the recommendation of a friend in the medical field and found many of the author's suggestions to be helpful. I am not in chronic pain (although I have some nagging shoulder problems) and was looking for some good sound advise to promote overall fitness and support my active lifestyle.

On the positive side, the book contains numerous simple exercises (called e-cises) and many of these were effective.

On the negative side, the author spends too much time trying to convince and motivate the reader. I found myself skipping around to get to the useful information.

Overall, I glad I purchased the book and have added it to my reference library.

I bought this book in 1998 and it has changed my life!! I am not kidding. I have lower back problems, and had been in the chiropractor's office as many as 20 times/year. I started doing the exercises for my back and slowly my back improved. I like this book so much, I order it from Amazon and send it to friends that I find that have back problems. I have probably given away fifteen copies over the years. For it to work, you MUST be persistent with the exercises (every day!) and patient. It will take some time before you notice a differnce. Oh, by the way, I have not been in the chiropractor's office in over a year!

I am an occupational therapist and a certified hand therapist who works in a busy outpatient clinic. I had 2 different patients recommend this book to me, one of which actually bought it for me. I was a little skeptical, even though I am pretty open minded. I am a physically active 36 y/o who occasionally gets low back pain and most recently some neck stiffness. I've used the exercises on several occasions and after a day or so the symptoms always seem to subside. I'm not saying it's the answer for everyone, but it's definitely worth a look! I've even recommended to a few patients.
