 Rating:  - Easy to understand guide to acupressure.This book is easier to understand than many others I have referred too. It shows good illustrations for self-treatment for different conditions. It is a good little guide for the non-professional. I have quite a few acupressure books. This one is the most user-friendly for me. Rating:  - Acupressure Techniques: A Self Help GuideThis book is almost useless for helping someone understand how to use acupressure to alleviate physical symptoms. As a licensed massage therapist who already knows quite a bit about acupressure, I am always willing to learn more about any kind of bodywork.

It is easy to follow, has a nice index to look up your particular problem and doesn't bog the reader down with a huge history and medical jargon of accupressure. It has easy to use pictures too. I have used it already to help my annoying neck and shoulder pain! Sure beats a $50.00 office visit (and most likely, a 3rd or 4th) to your doctor :) Rating: - Easy to followGuide is easy to follow and helpfull for everyday ailments. Lots of pictures! Rating: - Could have been betterThe strengths of this book are in the concise explanation of the techniques of acupressure and the clear illustration of the location of the acupoints. The layout is nicely done, too; each condition is on a double page spread with a brief explanation on the left-hand page and illustrations on the right-hand page. However, a little more thought on the indexing would have improved the book a lot. For example, PMS or things related cannot be found in the index, but are included under "dysmenorrhoea". ...
