[JB · Rating 5 out of 5]

I found this book to be both informative and helpful. I will holding onto this one for regular checkups to remind myself of things I can be doing better, differently or have just forgotten. Lots of great ideas to help navigate through all the different kinds of pain that one person might be suffering and what to do about it. Well written, I would recommend to everyone and anyone with pain. Enjoy!
