Treat Your Own Knees

Summary: Help heal yourself.
Review: I have had 16 years of knee pain originally brought on from a heavy knock to the knee and then exasperated by basketball and a lack of knowledge of how to solve the problem. This book helped almost immediately, with excellent detail and practical activities to treat the various aspects of knee health. I have had some great physiotherapists but even the best of them couldn't explain the detail in easy to understand terms like this book did. Furthermore, the practical activities can be implemented quickly into your daily routine. It may be the best ten dollars you ever spend if you have knee pain, just because it should limit your the time you spend waiting in a physiotherapists office.

Summary: price tag is bigger than the book!
Review: This book has good general information and packs a lot of it in a tiny tiny book...I was a little dissapointed, but I guess size isn't always everything?

Summary: Excellent Knee Info
Review: This book is excellent. It is an easy read and full of useful information. I recently had knee surgery on "torn up" meniscus and found this book to be very helpful as a follow up to my therapy. I urge anyone who wants to "save their knees" to get this book. As the saying goes "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!"

Summary: If you kneed help.......
Review: This knee pain book is very unique because it is completely based on just published research . Well laid out with pictures of easy exercises you can do at home or on the job, I consider it a valuable resource for all who have knee pain and highly recommend it. Also liked "The No-Beach, No-Zone, No-Nonsense Weight Loss Plan, A Pocket Guide to What Works" by the same author.
