Editorial Reviews

Review

Patsy Westcott and Leyardia Black bring together a variety of alternative healing methods for treating many female health complaints. They begin by looking at factors that contribute to the state of our health, such as diet and mental attitude, and go on to address conditions ranging from PMS to cancer. The symptoms of each condition are discussed, along with things that might cause or aggravate it, information about the conventional treatment for the condition and alternative treatments that have been used with good results. Patsy and Leyardia have done a wonderful job of presenting a range of treatment methods that you can pursue more deeply if you wish, while at the same time giving you information that you can use to treat yourself today. -- From The WomanSource Catalog & Review: Tools for Connecting the Community for Women; review by FGP
