Product Description
Product Description
A Personalized Approach to Feeling Better
Struggling with fibromyalgia (FMS) and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a triple challenge: Not only must you deal with pain, exhaustion, and other symptoms, but you also have to contend with health-care providers who often won't acknowledge that you're actually sick, and a confusing array of health care options. In twenty years of practice, author Lynette Bassman has seen many people with FMS and CFS. She's even struggled with CFS herself. Bassman knows that it's possible to overcome these conditions. She found the right combination of approaches to heal herself-and so can you, if you use the comprehensive information and recovery advice you'll find in this book.
The Feel-Good Guide to Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome begins with an overview, offering a simple explanation of what is known about FMS and CFS. It then describes and evaluates most available therapies, both conventional and alternative, that can address not only physical symptoms but emotional and spiritual ones as well. You'll assess your own symptoms and customize a treatment approach that meets your own unique symptom profile. Finally, you'll learn how to chart a course to recovery that will help you feel better and maintain your progress.
"Bassman's book is a guide which everyone can utilize when confronting a problem like fibromyalgia. The right coach will help you to combine inspiration and information, and when you do, exceptional results are to be expected. The Feel Good Guide to Fibromyalgia does it all in a style that is easy to read and utilize."
-Bernie Siegel, MD author "Love, Medicine, and Miracles "and "Love, Magic, and Mudpies"
"Bassman has done a fine job of explaining a complex and disabling group of conditions that are under-diagnosed and inadequately treated by mainstream medicine. The solutions she offers are broad-ranging, thorough, user-friendly, individualized, and above all, in the large majority of cases, successful!"
-Hyla Cass, MD, author of "8 Weeks to Vibrant Health: A Woman's Take-Charge Program"

A Holistic Approach
26 Sep 2007
Format:Paperback
Bassman has written a book unlike others I've read on fibromyalgia & chronic fatigue syndrome. Her book is extremely well researched & offers many different options for treatment, both conventional & holistic. In addition to treating physical symptoms, she provides guidance for dealing with emotional, psychological & spiritual aspects of these syndromes. There is a wealth of good scientific information in this book, written in a user-friendly style.

Wealth of Information
2 Aug 2007
Format:Paperback
As a health-care professional, I began having significant health problems
and followed a traditional medical course of treatment. After about a
year, I was getting sicker and sicker despite my doctor's reassurances
that the multiple medications I was taking were working. I stopped seeing
my doctor and tried several alternative therapies that eventually led me
to becoming healthy again. As I read Dr. Bassman's book, I wish it had
been available to me when I was doing my search. It has a wealth of
information written in plain language that is extremely important in our
society which emphasizes disease instead of the wellness model that Dr.
Bassman presents.
