Rating: Summary: Doesn't teach you enough Review: This book is thick for a "Complete Idiot's Guide" book. It's packed with information. Unfortunately much of the information is on why you should try out reflexology. Funny, I bought the book because I already knew why and because I wanted to learn how to do it. In other words, the author tries too hard -- waste the reader's time -- justifying the legitimacy of reflexology.So you don't get your feet wet (no pun intended) until chapter 13, when the author starts talking about techniques. Unfortunately she's too talkative; there's a lot of unnecessary stuff, which the book falls short when it comes to really teaching you and me how to practice reflexology. The photos are okay but few. Last year I saw a colored reflexology book at the local ...store and it was a much better book, because from the very start it delved into the how. Too bad when I went back the book was already sold out. In short, this book gives you good background info on reflexology, but you won't learn much on the techniques from it.
Rating: Summary: Great way to self-heal & help family and friends too! :) Review: This book really gives details on how to help yourself & others with basic reflexology techniques. Specifics of each area of the body are covered, how to watch for problems & ways to fix them. For example, ways to deal with symptoms for PMS, back problems, motion sickness, allergies & asthma. Uses of other related items like aromatherapy lotions & oils, reflexology tools & nutritional supplements. It also covers fun stuff like figuring personalities by checking out people's feet. :)
Rating: Summary: Wonderful Book for Anyone! Review: This book really taught me alot about the human body & what you can do to try & heal yourself naturally. I recommend it to anyone who would like to learn more about themselves, or just to learn some fun info. Wonderfully written, easy to read, a great gift for anyone!! Two thumbs up!!
Rating: Summary: Enjoyable reading, and full of useful information. Review: This should be the first book on Reflexology you pick up, it is packed full of information and very entertaining to read. Frankie's writing style is professional, yet personal too. This book has everything you need to know about Reflexology, and a great resource link that I have used extensively.
