From the Back Cover
Heal your headaches once and for all.

Millions of us suffer from chronic headaches every day. Now, Dr. Mark Wiley shows you how to get rid of the crushing, throbbing pain forever. With his self-directed, integrated mind/body approach, you can actually stop headaches before they start.

Eight simple steps to a headache-free life.

Dr. Wiley’s revolutionary program combines the best of Eastern
and Western medicine for the lasting relief that neither system
provides alone. Inside, he shows you:

1. How much and what to drink for proper hydration
2. How to maximize your oxygen intake with deep breathing
3. How to rid your liver, kidneys, and colon of headache-causing toxins
4. How to eat for a headache-free life
5. How to move your body for maximum relaxation
6. How to deepen your sleep patterns and avoid fatigue
7. How to reduce stress with meditation
8. How to stop a headache in its tracks if you’ve “slipped up” in the program

Whether your headaches are cluster or migraine, muscle-based or vascular, allergic or rebound, you will find relief in this simple volume. Empower yourself to end the pain today.

Mark V. Wiley, OMD, is living proof that his eight-part program really works. After nearly thirty years of incapacitating headaches, he traveled the world in search of a cure. He developed one based on in-depth research and his personal experiences at the hands of physicians, psychologists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, bone setters, faith healers, and shamans. He is a doctor of Oriental medicine, practitioner of acupuncture, and master of qigong (the Chinese skill of cultivating energy) and tuina (Chinese massage). Dr. Wiley is also a medical writer for HealUSA.net. He has written nine books on health, martial arts, and Asian culture, and his articles have appeared in magazines and journals worldwide. He lives in Philadelphia, where he practices integrated energy medicine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Healing within easy reach, September 14, 2004

By	Maria Morris "Mab Morris" (Dahlonega, GA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Mark Wiley's book on Outwitting Headaches is transformative. Without even finishing the book, I've already been able to begin overcoming headaches and those things that trigger them. I can now easily envision a life not only without headaches, but also a body more healthy because it is less gunked up by medicines, chemicals, and stress. He presents a cure for the head and the whole body that is within easy reach of our own hands.

5.0 out of 5 stars Self-Help for headaches that work, September 1, 2004

By	David Mckinnon "Wandering the Path" (San Diego Ca USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I received this book a few weeks ago and since then I have outwitted several headaches. The headaches I get are usually mild but my girlfriend had a series of very intense headaches. Using the techniques in the book, we were able to manage the pain and prevent them from returning. It is a quick read with very practical advice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outwitting Headaches Works!, September 3, 2004

By	Herbert Borkland "constant reader" (Columbia, MD) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Very few people have suffered through a worse case history of lifelong "skull melting" headaches than Mark Wiley; and nobody I'm aware of has gone farther afield, into every corner of the planet, to research possible medical relief. This definitive book is driven by both his urgent personal need to STOP THE PAIN, and by Wiley's massive learning in Eastern and Western medicine. The regimen he promotes WORKS. This is the last anti-headache book you will ever need.
