Step by step, in straightforward language backed by instructive line drawings and photographs, Hand Reflexology shows just how to massage "reflex buttons" located in the hands and connected to every gland and organ in the body. Within minutes, readers will master simple moves to calm frazzled nerves, ease painful symptoms, and ward off disease. Safe, easy to learn, and adaptable to any environment -- even the office -- these techniques will help readers alleviate hay fever, asthma, arthritis, and digestive problems; stop the common cold in its tracks; and strengthen the heart, lungs, and kidneys. Men will discover techniques to combat baldness, while women will find massages to promote painless childbirth. And every reader will enjoy freedom from tension and a surge in energy.
Rich in illuminating case histories and lively anecdotes, Hand Reflexology holds the key to optimal health -- naturally.
