5.0 out of 5 stars This book has made me virtually pain-free!, 26 Aug 2001

Ivan Lietaert "Ivan L." (Slypskapelle, Belgium) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Back Care Basics: A Doctor's Gentle Yoga Programme for Back and Neck Pain Relief (Paperback)

Aged 32, I would wake up a broken man every morning, due to musscle tension in the the upper back and neck. Also, I would suffer from debilitating headache from time to time. This book taught me simple and safe stretching techniques. I'm now virtually painfree if I do my daily exercises... I'd recommend an other title for those who are desperate: Yoga, the paht to holistic health, by BKS Iyengar. This man was Dr. Schatz's yoga-teacher, and this book in particular is a must have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Recover from disc problems and gain awareness of your body, 10 July 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Back Care Basics: A Doctor's Gentle Yoga Programme for Back and Neck Pain Relief (Paperback)

This book helped has helped me to recover from a debilitating disc rupture. It taught me exercises to do even when I was stuck in bed. The book gently teaches stretchs and strengthening exercises and has cautions and warnings for all kinds of back problems. It also had helpful information for dealing with the reality of life with an injured back, including relapses and how to cope physically and emotionally. Highly recommended. I have better posture and the essential body awareness needed by us back pained people.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great information, Useful - a keeper, 8 July 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Back Care Basics: A Doctor's Gentle Yoga Programme for Back and Neck Pain Relief (Paperback)

This book has great information about how to take care of your back. I am a massage therapist/ health educator and I am constantly using this book to refer my clients to it's content about caring for their backs. Back care is something we all need to learn about for a healthier, more comfortable life. As a health educator, I highly recomend this book. Mahalo.
