The author claims that his innovative self-treatment technique works miracles... and he is absolutely right. As a practitioner of acupuncture I have often been frustrated at my disability to treat myself when I was in pain. This book has given me the gift of being able to treat myself - and very very effectively. It is also a fascinating book for people interested in Chinese medicine. Hallelujah Shmuel, thanks for this unexpected gift. My chronic backache has gone (forever?).
