The Concise Perrin Technique A Handbook for Patients (A practical companion to The Perrin Technique 2E: How to diagnose and treat CFS/ME and fibromyalgia via the lymphatic drainage of the brain)

The second edition of The Perrin Technique was published on 11 March. Bringing the context, the background science and Dr Perrin’s clinical findings fully up-to-date, this is now a comprehensive account of the structural and neuro-immunological problems that can lead to myalgic encephalomyelitis, chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia, ideal for practitioners/physical therapists and all those wishing to gain a thorough understanding of these complex conditions. But at 530 pp this will be too overwhelming for many severely fatigued patients who, at the start of their journey to recovery, just want the basics – why they are ill, why they have the symptoms they have and what they need to do to get better. The Concise Perrin Technique offers this basic information together with two illuminating, detailed case histories and answers to the questions most frequently asked about the Perrin Technique – start your journey to recovery now.

He is Honorary Senior Lecturer in the Department of Allied Health Professions, University of Central Lancashire, and a Registered Osteopath and Specialist in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Treating a patient for back pain in 1989 led him to the concept that there was a structural basis to ME/CFS.
