Book Reviews of Acupressure Techniques: A Self-Help Guide

Book Review: Easy to use and great for pain relief
Summary: 5 Stars

This is an excellent guide for the inexperienced layperson.

I have given copies to friends here and abroad and recommended it to many others including an allopathic doctor, as a good companion to have nearby, for relieving pain that would otherwise require a visit to a doctor or taking painkillers.

The diagrams are clear and easy to follow. Make sure you read the guidelines at the beginning of the book and generally avoid working on damaged bones or wounds from recent operations.

You don't have to know the exact acupressure points or terms or a lot about the human anatomy to get a result. If the point that you press is sore, it is generally the point that you need to press.

There is no need to use a lot of strength. Sometimes the person whom you are helping may be too frail to take the pressure or has a low pain treshhold. Just ease off and continue pressing on the spot until he or she can take more pressure.

There are many acupressure books in print. What makes this unique is that Dr Kenyon has selected a very EFFECTIVE COMBINATION OF ACCUPRESSURE POINTS for the problems that I have succesfully used to help my friends and relations with relieving intense pain in eg the hip, shoulder (frozen shoulder), hand, feet, wrist and neck. Also for diarrhoea.

In my limited experience, a result is generally obtained overnight. The relief on their faces is soemthing to behold.

I was going to order a few more copies of this book when I found that it was out of print. I hope Dr Kenyon will seriously consider updating this wonderful book.

It is so helpful in giving the layperson CONTROL and INDEPENDANCE in maintaining his own well being and certainly will save the National Health System a lot of money.

If anyone reading this knows Dr Kenyon please let him know of my request for a reprint.
