Massage for Pain Relief: A Step-by-Step Guide

"I have been using this book for a few years and really enjoy it. The first section explains the techniques and ideas, and the second section has illustrated step-by step instructions which are easy to follow. I use it mostly for menstrual cramps, because in 10 minutes you can have no cramps and be totally blissed out which is better than waiting around for a pill to work. Last week I used the head massage on a friend with a really bad cold and her congestion went away. It's really effective and works faster than medication. I'm really glad I have it and now when there is something painful I look in the book before I look in my medicine cabinet. But you really need a partner to help you out because there's no way you would be able to effectively reach all the necessary pressure points on your own."

"I read this book shortly after my wife delivered a set of twins, both of which weighed over 7pounds. My wife understandably suffered from strained back and shoulder muscles. I bought the book thinking that it might save me a chiropractor bill. What a wonderful surprise. Not only did it save me a doctors bill, it worked like majic on my wife's back and shoulders. That was 5 years ago and many books and many hours of massage have passed since then. I have worked on family and friends ever since. Even met people who have heard of me through acquantances and the results are still unbelievable. Although I have not been able to completely and totally cure everyone, there have been very few that I could not help to some degree. It's a wonderful feeling to be able to help people through such a wonderful medium.

Although I do not believe in Yin and Yang, I do believe in massage and pressure point therapy. This is a wonderful book and I offer my sincere thanks to Peijian Shen."
