This practical, zero-cost system of do-it-yourself pain relief could not be more needed or more timely. Shunning the standard approaches, this book takes readers on a fascinating, profusely illustrated exploration and shows how we unwittingly create a lot of our pain through our common, everyday activities and how to simply and scientifically set about eliminating the causes of that pain.

A simplified method of making a postural analysis will help you pinpoint the postural distortions that are causing your pain. You'll also get the tools to create a personalized program to reduce or eliminate pain through stretches and exercises custom-tailored to counterbalance your personal patterns of daily activities and correct your individual distortions.
