Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
An auto accident left Cathryn Bauer with such a badly damaged leg that her orthopedist believed her limp and chronic pain were permanent. Determined to heal herself, she created a self-care program that utilized acupressure, visualization, and Tai Chi. Acupressure not only relieved her pain but also facilitated a complete healing.
This small, clearly written reference book discusses why acupressure is effective. ("It began with the observation that when you are hurt, your hand instinctively moves to cover the injury.") It tells--succinctly--how to work with acupressure points, what precautions to take, and the Western and Asian views of the discipline. Sections address treatments for alleviating the suffering related to PMS, pregnancy, menopause, and aging. Forty-four anatomical drawings show the specific points for these common ailments.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Concise,
By Theodore Greenwood "Theodore" (Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pocket Guide to Acupressure Points for Women (Crossing Press Pocket Guides) (Paperback)
Concise and accurate, but not enough information to be helpful, Cathryn Bauer's latest book on Acupressure, The Pocket Guide to Acupressure Points for Women, focuses on points. Her previous book, Acupressure for Women (the Well Women Series, ISBN: 0895942321 covers the same points (forgive the pun) and gets to much more about Acupressure while including helpful charts and drawings.
Ms. Bauer is a respected practitioner and instructor of Acupressure in the San Francisco Bay area.
