5.0 out of 5 stars Get New Updated version instead!, July 15, 2003

By	Karen Wallace "Karen" (Napa, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This book totally saved my life. I picked it up on the way to a Christmas craft fair I was working...and during the afternoon I did a few of the exercizes along with some in Treat Your Own Back. The relief was instant. I couldn't believe it! The only thing about these books is that Robin McKenzie has updated his method and combined both books into "7-Steps to a Pain Free Life: How to Rapidly Relieve Back and Neck Pain" by Craig Kubey and Robin McKenzie. So...get the updated version instead!

5.0 out of 5 stars This book has been instrumental in relieving my neck pain!, March 27, 2000

By	Dale Roth (Bellevue, WA United States) - See all my reviews

After several years of increasingly frequent bouts with neck and upper back pain, I finally went to a physical therapist to find some relief. During the few weeks she treated me, she loaned me a copy of this book and told me to practice the exercises in it. The exercises were *so* successful in relieving my pain that I bought my own copy of the book and have made them a regular part of my daily routine. They have proven themselves time and time again to be a preventative measure against recurring pain. I can't tell you how thankful I am to have found this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars First real improvement in years, April 7, 2000

By A Customer

A couple of the exercises in this book were recommended to me by a chiropractor. It took a few days to feel any improvement, but I then found myself going for days without any headaches. That may not sound like much, but I'd been having chiropractic adjustments every single week like clockwork for years. It's been three months since I bought this book, and I'm now able to go three weeks or more between adjustments. That's the first real improvement I've ever gotten. Even more important to me, I only have headaches about once a week, whereas they had become to seem a permanent fixture in my life before I started doing McKenzie's stretching exercises a couple of times a day. That's a lot of benefit from a book that costs 1/3 the cost of a single adjustment.
