Acupressure Way of Health: Jin Shin Do

Rating:
Summary: Good practical book
Review: I found this simply written book very usefull. The book begins with conception and introduction of theoretical basis of chinese medicine and accupressure, it continues with tables of locations and way of working on the main acu-points (including self-treatment). At the and of the book author gives us a practical approach to the emotions from the acu-points.

Summary: Esoteric and Theory-based
Review: This book is quite esoteric and very theory-based. I was looking more for a book that would assist me in learning to use accupressure rather than understand it's development and philosophy. For anyone interested in a book that is more aimed at treatment, try Acupressure Potent Points: A Guide to Self-Care for Common Ailments by Michael Gach, an excellent resource.

Summary: a class text
Review: This is actually a class text designed to be used in conjunction with a certified Jin Shin Do practitioner and teacher. With that in mind, yes, it will seem ethereal, or worse, when not taken in conjunction with the class(es). As opposed to working primarily from the ZangFu, Jin Shin Do utilizes the 8 curious Mai; and is another way to help body-workers in dealings of body armoring.
