This review is from: Alternative Medicine Definitive Guide to Headaches (Alternative Medicine Definative Guide) (Hardcover)

This book is a must for anyone who suffers from chronic headaches or migraines. It covers not only treatments, but also guides you through the causes and what parts of the body are responsible. Complete descriptions of every type of headache and many examples of ways to treat them fill the pages in an easy to read manner. This is the best book I have read on headaches, and being a migraine researcher and sufferer, I highly recommend it.
