Book Reviews of Exercises for Osteoporosis: A Safe and Effective Way to Build Bone Density and Muscle Strength, Revised Edition
Book Review: WHAT YOUR DOCTOR FORGOT TO TELL YOU!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Like many people who are diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis, I recived just about NO information from my doctor on how to improve bone health. It was just -- "take this pill and I'll see you at your annual physical." I was deeply upset that she had no information for me, provided almost no insight, and seemed vastly disinterested in providing any. I went out and looked for books to provide the information I needed. I found this book and couldn't be happier. In conjunction with Gillian Sanson's enlightening book "The Myth of Osteoporisis," this book should be in the hands of everyone who is interested in bone health.
This is an absolutely fabulous book! Well laid out, exercises are easy to do, 2 each routines for those with osteoporosis, osteopenia, or no diagnosis of either. A GREAT segment on spinal alignment.
This is a MUST HAVE book for every person who is interested in bone health. I liked the fact that although the majority of the exercises show a female demonstrator, her partner in some segments was male, and the demonstrator for spinal alignment is male. Men get osteoporisis, too.
Wnderful book!! Highly recommended.
