Even thought this book was originally copywrited in 1938 it remains a classic in the field. The photographs and diagrams are excellent. Every part of the body is covered, in terms of how foot massage [or reflexology] may help alleviate pain and illness. The author has some very moving stories of how people with seeming impossible injuries or illnesses were helped by these techniques. This is an excellent little book. I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recomment it.

This was the first book I read when I started my reflexology training. It is inspiring as well as uplifting. Imagine how such an ancient technique can still be so helpful to a person's health in this day and age of allopathic medicine! I recommend this book to anyone interested in the subject.

In the Western world, this book appears to be the original work on the practice of reflexology, and while portions of it may seem to be a bit dated, it's still the most scientific, ego-free work dealing with the topic. Most happily, it takes a straightforward approach and presents logical, easy-to-follow guidelines for both amateurs and practitioners of this fascinating and still not fully understood science. I use it in tandem with several more recent works and find that it answers most questions I have.

This is one of the best books I have seen regarding the early development of reflexology. It is equally suitable for those wanting to know about the development of the subject or those wanting to get a basic understanding of the principles of the subject. An absorbing book (s) and one I strongly recommend to all.

I have read this book over and over. I have bought many copies and given it as gifts. this book works. If this technique were acted upon by the general public we would not need so many pharmaceuticlal drugs for pain. For some reason the public has been duped into believing we need to take a pill for everything. No one needs to sell this book, with reading it, applying her method, it will speak for itself. R.

I am a Reflexologist and I have recommended this book to all of my clients - it is a real eye opener to the benefits of Holistic Health.

I have just finished taking my Reflexology course and my instructor was taught by Eunice Ingham. I read it completely but I know I will be referring to it for many years to get that extra information I need. It is a great book to tell you where to work the foot for certain ailments. Easy to read, it may be a bit difficult for those who have not taken a course. It is an excellent book though to show the results of Reflexology are certainly there.

Bought this item for a friend's mom who's a doctor. Thus far, they love the book

I decided to learn Reflexology from the pioneers of Reflexology ... the IIR (International Institute of Reflexology). This is one of the required books for the home study portion of their courses.

It's boring as far as reading each and every page, but VERY informative with a rich amount of information. I usually just read the first and last sentences of the paragraph. Skim and scan - that's it for me. However it still sits on my bookshelf so I can reference it at a moment's notice.

Written in common terms. True stories to grant you honest visuals and experiences. A humble author/practitioner. Shows the healing art and science of Reflexology. A 'must' for any who desires to learn this bodywork.
