Rating:  Summary: Good Overview Review: I'd like to address the review that speaks of the 'comedy' of this book. What he/she wrote is truly in the book, but it is merely in the imagery section, and is to be interpreted by the individual for meditation purposes. The "100 pound sack" image is symbolic of the stresses each person has weighing over them, which may cause them to slouch and mope, etc. There are also accupressure, massage, herbal, homeopathic, yoga, and other remedies for each ailment. And the ailment section only takes up half the book, the other half teaches about various natural healing methods and topics.

Rating:  Summary: Heal the natural way... Review: This book has natural remedies for minor ailments (it specifically mentions that if symptoms are severe or persist over an extended period of time you should see a doctor). I have found it very helpful (I figured in the least it can't hurt me). This book is split into 3 parts.
Part I: This part contains an overview of what natural healing is and then gives descriptions of various methods used in natural healing (ex. acupressure, aromatherapy, homeopathy, hydrotherapy, yoga).
Part II: This book lists many ailments in alphabetical order. It is easy to look them up because they are written as an encyclopedia style reference. Some problems included are: acre, bad breath, colds, heartburn, jet lag, rashes, and warts. This part also includes illustrations of things such as massage and acupressure so that it is easy to lacate the areas yourself.
Part III: This part lists various resources in case the reader is interested in looking up more information or some organizations that deal with natural healing.
I would recomend this book for anyone who doesn't know much about natural healing but likes to try and heal themselves before seeing a medical doctor.
Rating:  Summary: From the World of ALTERNATIVE medicene Review: This book is used to discuss the alternative ways for healing, for people looking for other methods of healing rather than expensive medications from the hospital. This book covers traditional and eastern ways of healing, as well as nutritional healing, such as food therapy, juice therapy, vitamin and mineral therapy. The book is organized by health problems, and has an introduction for each method of healing. It also contains a resource page where you can find information on each method.If you are wanting to understand more about natural healing, this book is definantly for you!
Rating:  Summary: A fantastically thurough reference! Review: This is the best of the best. It tells you when to see an orthodox doctor, and gives you MANY choices in therapy options for all medical concerns. It's an all-inclusive guide to ALL alternative health methods, from Acupressure and Ayurveda to Sound Therapy and Yoga. I refer to it daily, and learn something new each time.
