Excellent explanation and recommendations for relief
As a certified massage therapist, I work on many people with this "CRS." The authors' suggestions for exercise are what I've seen recommended by the physical therapist I work with, and I've seen results.Of course, massage is very beneficial, and I was glad to see it was alsorecommended to provide some pain relief.The only way to truly beat thechronic pain cycle is through good posture and strengthening/stretching,and the authors do a good job of providing effective, easy to performexercises. There is a way to gain relief from this chronic problem...it mayrequire a little work on the part of the sufferer, but follow thesuggestions given in the book, and you may soon be pain free.I've seen itwork.I plan on giving this book to all my favorite clients for Christmas. ...

The Awakening of a Surgeon
What a GREAT read!I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Janda's book.It was informative, thoughtfully written, and contained just the right amount of humor.Dr. Janda is a person of integrity who genuinely cares about his patients and has an interest in preventing people involved in sports from becoming his patients.This is a very good book for individuals who want to prevent injuries for their children.

Always do right. This will gratify some & atonish the others
Dr Janda performed surgery on my should a couple of years ago.He's an incredibly talented and caring individual who's extremely passionate about helping others by preventing sports injuries.His book is easy to read, incredibly interesting and insightful into big issues in health care, and is 100% from the heart. Awakening of a Surgeon
This is an essential book for parents and weekend sportsmen, an inspirational book for anyone who has ever believed in or fought for a cause, and a good story for just about everybody.It is also a good mystery: why haven't the recommendations of Dr. Janda and the Institute for Preventative Sports Medicine been widely implemented nationally? It seems like a no brainer: the recommendations don't seem to interfere with the enjoyment of the sports, they have been proven to dramatically reduce injuries, and they greatly reduce health care costs.The recommendations seem to make everybody happy.What's the problem? Read the book to find out.I may be prejudiced because Dr. Janda saved my arm, but I loved this book and so has everyone to whom I have given it.I even have something to tease Dr. J about next time I see him: initially entertaining the thought for even a brief second that he had a prayer of taking sliding out of softball. ...

AFWeber's review
This easy-to-understand book helps simplify the complexity of CTDs whether you're an HS&E professional, plant employee or person off the street.It's full of good visuals, practical applications and won't give you a hernia carrying it around!Great training aid to help people understand what's meant by a "neutral" posture or other technical terminology when you're preparing your next session.Valuable tool to have on your reference shelf.Used it during my undergraduate work and have been using it ever since as a reference tool.Too bad there aren't more like it. ...
