About this title

Synopsis

For the nation's millions of arthritis sufferers, an alternative to drug therapy is offered in a program that instead prescribes a combination of gentle stretching, self-massage, and accupressure

Reviews

Gach offers readers the same pain-relief techniques--acupressure (finger-pressure), mild stretching, and self-massage--used at his Acupressure Institute in Berkeley, California. This self-help system for those with arthritis is intended to relax muscles by decreasing joint inflammation and relieving pain. Illustrations and exercise descriptions make up most of the book; included are sections covering daily stretching routines, the 12 basic arthritis relief points, specific body areas, and pain-relieving techniques. Acupressure has been gaining respect over the past decade as a holistic treatment mode. Those interested in specifics will want to read this book. Recommended.
