Summary: Favorable Results - Recommendation
Review: This review may be somewhat premature since I am just now ordering the book for myself. However, I would like to share a success story. My mother has suffered from a chronic cough for more than twenty years. She has seen every type of specialist, tried inhalers, cough syrups, pills, diets, and every other kind of treatment that any of these specialists could come up with. And still she coughed - constantly, day and night. My daughter-in-law has this book, found a "potent point" for coughing and showed Mom where to "push" following the illustrations. Now, whenever Mom starts coughing, she applies pressure. Her cough is stopped immediately. Needless to say, her Doctor is amazed, we are thrilled, and to me this one treatment alone is worth 10 stars. I can't wait to receive the book.

Summary: This book helps you feel better fast!
Review: We use this book on a very regular basis for minor ailments such as menstrual cramps and headaches, and for more serious ailments such as anxiety and a recent gallbladder surgery.The introductory remarks to each chapter are warm and sincere, and convey the real-world application of the exercises that follow. As with most things in life, the more you patience and practice you apply, the more you will benefit. Mr. Gach's writing displays his sincere warmth, knowledge, and desire to help others.

Summary: Trip to China, etc.
Review: We witnessed our hostess on a trip to China use accupressure points on a fellow traveler having an asthma attack. My teacher was accredited by the state of California to teach acupressure to RNs. I think this is the finest book of its kind for the laymen and recommend it or give it as a gift quite often.

Summary: solid, helpful, clear
Review: When I bought this book for the first time 10 years ago, I was bent with lower back pain. I took it home, did the pressure points, took a nap and a few hours later was fine. My father has used it to stop a toothache until he got to the dentist. A student of mine got rid of a persistent shoulder pain. Chinese thought is not like western thought -- this book translates the essentials for us with a minimum of mystification. It is the clearest, most helpful self-help health book I know.
