What it is:
A photo-illustrated guide that gives couples safe, hands-on techniques to help each other relieve back and neck pain.
Why we love it:
The author of this book believes that "the skilled touch of a loved one can have a more positive, lasting effect on one's well being than any techniques applied by a physician or therapist." This book features beautifully illustrated photographs with clear instructions that guide couples on how to properly place their hands to apply pressure and body mechanics to safely and effectively relieve musculoskeletal pain. In addition to the healing techniques, the author discusses the anatomy and physiology of pain, as well as offering life strategies to employ to reduce pain.
