What Customers Say About The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook: Your Self-Treatment Guide for Pain Relief, Second Edition:

I have severe back problems (scoliosis) and have been able to identify the muscles involved in my "out of balance" condition. Even now,physicians are amazed that I am not in a wheelchair. I have been giving this book as a gift, together with "Back Care Basics," since I discoverd its value in taking care of my body. I am 65 years old and do not expect a cure for my damaged spine; I believe, though, that if I had this information 20 years ago, much of that damage could have been prevented. I have also been able to alleviate the discomfort in many other stressed muscles throughout my body. I learned that many of the exercises I have used in the past, even those recommended by physical therapists, were actually doing damage to my muscles. Through the knowledge I acquired in this book, I am more able to help myself.

To me some of it is obvious, but then again a lot of it is new info. I like short to the point books. And glad I got it. I think it was worth the money. I bought this with the use of a body back buddy. I don't know if I will be able to read every page, but there is a lot of good info in this book.

I've sent 3 more copies to family and friends who also have found success using this simple, well documented, well written, and excellently illustrated book. No doctor, chiropractor, massage therapist, or physical therapist could help, but this $14 book helped me cure myself. For less then the price of one doctor's copay, you may be pain free. I suffered from severe, sometimes debilitating upper back, neck, and head pain for over 15 years from abuse I suffered from sports and weight training. I followed the clear instructions in this book to find trigger points and get rid of them, and now I am pain free.

Many paths led me to this book.In summary- I was shocked. This has damaged my ability to stay in shape and has been an overall bummer. The relief was only temporary at best.Stumbled on this book once I decided that much of modern medicine still seems to be side stepped by the bodies most common and simple problems. No matter the case, its always been there.

I don't write many reviews unless a book is either exceptional or terrible. After reading for 1 hour, applying the learnings, my pain is already reduced by about 50%. So I decided to take matters into my hands and did lots of research. Looking at the reviews of this book, I think you get the picture.

I've had surgery, chiropractic, you name it. This was in the first couple of days.It works, try it. Even so, I felt compelled to write a review.Brief background, I've had chronic shoulder/upper neck pain since 1999. The pain has varied between minor to extreme that forced bed rest.

This book tells you what your doctor knows but does not tell you because it takes too long to describe whats happening to you. You are shown the reasons why pain radiates from from damaged areas and how to manipulate and massage pain trigger points for relief. Excellent advice on pain relief for neck, back and shoulder pain relief. This book is written in a plain understanding style and gives self help remedies for pain relief.
