Pain is all too common - from back pain to headache and the multitude of hard-to-diagnose cases. The good news is that new techniques can help you beat pain, often in the privacy of your own home and with minimal equipment. Trigger point therapy, an important part of this book, is a leading new method of pain relief that has become highly popular in the US. Simple but effective, it can relieve pain from trigger points throughout the body - responsible for 80% of common pain. Trigger point therapy can also relieve the pain associated with many chronic pain conditions, such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, and lupus. This book also looks at many other pain-beating therapies including acupuncture, aromatherapy, chiropractic, cognitive behavioral therapy, homeopathy, hypnosis, magnet therapy, osteopathy, relaxation and meditation, and TENS machines.
