Summary: A great little encyclopaedia in less than 100 pages
Review: This book focuses on some easily-learned accupressure applications that seem intended to be the equivalent of a first-aid handbook. Although it lacks the in-depth discussion and completeness of a more professional work, the techniques listed cover some of the most common problems suffered by people (headache, sinus, acid stomach, knee pain,back pain, etc.). The methods are startlingly effective, especially the one for headache. I used this method once on a man who needed shots for a migraine, but who had left his medication home. The pain lessened by completion, but the relief continued afterward. His pain was completely gone in 10-15 minutes, and stayed gone. These methods are especially useful for those who already take a large number of prescription medications, and don't want to add other drugs to their system for more "routine" problems.
