Sandra's review March 19, 2008 Sandra J. Leslie (Australia) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Overcome Neck and Back Pain I had looked at a friend's book and it had a particular exercise to stretch the muscles over the side ribs. I cannot find this excercise in this book. Apart from that it is a great book.

As a yoga teacher and massage therapist, in some of my clients there was still something missing when it came to their back and neck problems. kit techniques are spot on and they work
sherri reader with neck pain February 6, 2005 sherri (Florida) 2 out of 12 found this review helpful
Someone bought this book for me from my yoga class and I thought I would pick up a few new tips. It was okay nothing to write home about- maybe good for someone who doesn't know how to exercise. There are better books out there.

While no book could replace hands on instruction, this book comes close. This is the book that got me moving again after years of struggle with chronic back pain. Rather than a "one size fits all" approach, the book encourages one to review the evidence of your body and carefully approach the problem. I wonder where I would be if I hadn't run into this book a few years ago. Try it, it may save your back.
Great guide! February 17, 2004 M. Shaw (So. Cal.) 10 out of 12 found this review helpful
Very complete book with daily routines in the back. The description of exercises is extremely thorough. Much more complete than many other books out there. I have been through some rough times with my back and shoulders, and have searched widely for guidance to help me take care of myself - this one is a keeper. Doctors and Chiropractors are wonderful - but the ultimate responsibility is ours.
