 Empowering! October 20, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
There are a lot of trigger points and in some cases it can be hard to figure out what is causing your problem. I haven't found the quick, magical relief suggested by some of the book's stories. However, I have learned a lot from this book about the types of things that can cause problems with different muscles, and this type of knowledge is very valuable. I have been to a well-regarded spine doctor and spent 2+ months in chiropractic/physical therapy and got almost no good information there. "Don't bend or twist"--gee, thanks... My pain has always been intermittent so it is hard for me to tell whether any treatment helps, but with this book my mental anxiety is much less because I feel like I understand my body a lot better.
 The Bible!! October 18, 2008
This is THE book that can turn a good massage therapist into a fantastic one. Filled with tons of information, practical advice, and great illustrations. This book changed my whole practice and helped me take better care of my myself. This is the ONLY trigger point book you need.
Cured my back pain October 12, 2008
This pain started in a Ti Chi exercise class about 6 years ago. Just a nagging mid back pain that came and went. Chiropractic treatment helped but I could not do aerobics because it would come back. The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook showed me where and how to treat it. I got relief from the first self treatment and was cured within one week. Since then I have helped my son with his knee pain. I highly recommend this book, much pain and suffering can be avoided!
Instant relief for my Golfer`s Elbow October 9, 2008
I have dealt with golfers elbow for years getting by with ice and rest but it would never go away. This book suggested a trigger point in the upper arm that I eventually found-a little hard ball that is not present on my good arm. I was amazed at how a little massage on that gives the elbow immediate relief. It was literally instantaneous. The elbow isn`t cured but 75% better with no more instances of extreme pain. After a little more research with the book I found trigger points in my back that give relief to lower back pain. A fanastic book, easy to read and use.
Relieve your pain yourself - Practice makes perfect! October 5, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this book after years of suffering shoulder and neck pain that could not be attributed to anything specific. Chiropractic care and Acupuncture helped some, but the treatments are expensive and not always available on a weekend. So I tried the book and found that by manipulating the trigger points, the pain would eventually dissipate. Its rather amazing that this simple therapy is not better known.
The rating is 4 stars instead of 5 because it seems hard to find the specific parts of the body and how to treat them. I solved my problem by buying brightly colored tabs and affixing them to the different chapters - problem solved.
