5.0 out of 5 stars You can do this, June 8, 1999

By A Customer

There's a lot more to chiropractic than this book covers, just as there's a good bit more to neurosurgery than first aid.

But what a first aid manual it is. From basic spinal anatomy through the movements and techniques of simple chiropractic, Holmquist teaches enough to maintain good spinal health, fix programmer's neck and other dread maladies.

My wife's headaches are gone, and we're not driving 40 miles to see a 'doctor' for a simple mechanical adjustment. If you crash a motorcycle, see a real chiro. If not, this is great stuff!

5.0 out of 5 stars It's about time this knowledge is available to the public!!!, February 11, 2005

By	Jordy (Syracuse, Utah) - See all my reviews

This is an excellent book. As the author notes a number of people try to adjust their spine by "popping" their back at home. They really don't know what they are doing, just that it feels good. Why not show them the correct way to do this. After all it's not rocket science. I have had the book and video for several months and have never felt better. Not only am I able to stand and walk longer, I also sleep more soundly. My wife's back-aches are a thing of the past. It has improved our health and well being immensely.
The two negative reviews below from Chiropractors just goes to show you that the secret is out. I would bet that neither of them have read the book, and are merely threatened by the knowledge that most people can take care of a majority of their chiropractic needs at home.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic experience, January 9, 2004

By	rick shaver (Harrisburg, Pa.) - See all my reviews

This book is a fantastic intro to chiropractic principles. I have adjusted myself and my family with understanding and success. Dr. Holmquests ability to convey chiropractic technique is impressive and inspiring. This book has shaken the chiro establishment to its core. Don't let others instill fear in your heart. This book is a leap of boldness and courage unmatched in the chiropractic world. The truth will set you free!! Read this book and impress yourself. You can do it with ease. Video available as well to compliment the book which I would recommend highly.
