Best book I've found on repetitive stress injuries.
"Why does working @ my computer hurt so much" is the best book I've found on preventing repetitive stress injuries.It filled with practical information for anyone who spends long hours in front of acomputer (secretaries, programmers, writers, college students). A DEFINITE RECOMMENDATION.

very useful overview
In this small book Dr. Ferru gives a short overview of the essentials of living the right way. Perfect health depends on drinking water, taking the right fats, the right food combinations with the right nutrition, the right environment (feng shui and no electromagnetic fields) and a lot more. Things you will often neglect or forget (colors, breathing the right way etc..). Dr. Ferru has brought all possible subjects just into this little book to remind you what to do to live the right way. Just a pitty that he has kept most chapters so very short (with the big print the book is most readable and understandable for the layman, but I was hungry for more).

A must-read...
Wonderful guide on natural health, this book contains the essentials we need to know about healthy living.It should be in every home.A must-read for every mother raising a family.

Breath of fresh air
In this era of overinformation we are bombarded with too many health books.Dr. Ferru's book "The Right Way of Living" makes a difference because it synthesizes the wisdom and science of different cultures covering all aspects of health: spiritual, mental, emotional, physical, and environmental. For the above reasons, I strongly recommend his book. ... Read more

a challenging approach to developing flexibility
This book is thorough, well organized and well layed out.The verbal descriptions of the moves are clear. (Some of the photographs are a little fuzzy, however.)Besides the chapters on stretching there are chapters onkicking drills, weight training, concentration and visualization, and diet(although his recommendations to eat horse meat and avoid ice cream didn'tgrab me).He also provides sample weekly training schedules for beginner,intermediate, and advanced levels.But beginners beware:this book is notfor beginners.It assumes you can do the splits, and was designed tofollow Frenette's first book, entitled Jean Frenette's Complete Guide toStretching.If you're starting out, start there.

It can greatly improve your kicking and felxibility.

A must buy book for everyone!
It's a perfect book if you are a beginner. With this book you will quickly master the basic techniques and stances. Clear step-by-step instructions with a lot of photographs, artworks and tip boxes. Thai bodywork is also known as Thai massage. The techniques and movements in this book are known as the "northern-style", they are practised throughout Thailand in preference to the "southern style", which is known as the "hard style" and is practised mainly in Bangkok. ...

Good.
This book is pretty extensive and shows all kinds of stretch. It has a lot of variety for stretching the same muscle group. The pictures illustrating the poses are hand drawings/sketches of people. The book is hard to keep open/flat because the width of the book isn't that wide. Also, the beginning instructions on when to strech, things to remember, etc. are o.k. I didn't agree with some of the stuff... I don't know if its just outdated or what... I think this book is from 1997 I think. Overall, its a good book.

Clear step by step diagrams, easy to understand
This has clear, concise step by step diagrams, showing how to improve strength and flexability. The text explains why you need to do these stretches and how they will strengthen your muscles and improve your flexability and posture. I recommend this book to both elite athletes and weekend hackers ... Read more

Well-being in warm water
So you thought caring for your body was only for serious athletes? Anyone - healthy and disabled, swimmer and non-swimmer, female and male, young and older - will enjoy the stretches, moves and postures taught in this book.Did you think body-care is expensive? A flexible plastic noodle and a waterbottle are the only equipment needed for water yoga, this new mode of bodycare.Read more

Good Stretching
I used to run a lot, but it wasn't until I pulled a hamstring in paintball that I decided I better take this "stretching thing" more seriously (a lot of it has to do with being 41 instead of 21). The pictures are very good. The intro is required reading and is about all the reading that has to be done. Then, just jump around to the sections you need to work on.

Something for everyone
This book is an ideal way for the average person like myself, to introduce themselves to the concept of better health and awareness.It focuses on modern lethargy and pulls you out of the mindset of "all or nothing" regimes.Read more
