There is repetition, and the little cartoons didn't really work for me, but the information is vital.
I suffered from a variety of chronic health conditions for 7 years, and this book, in combination with other material, was instrumental in my recovery.
I'd read one of Sarno's books on the Mind-body theory a year prior to this, and I was frustrated with the lack of practical advice, eventually giving up.

To: Playing and recording complicated guitar parts for whole days, playing gigs, typing, mouse use, lifting gear etc. - symptom free.
I don't ascribe to absolutely everything that's said in the book, and some of the practical stuff I chose to skip as it didn't fit with my worldview. But overall, this is an excellent resource, and not one to be sniffed at.
