Summary: Taking Charge of Your Own Pain
Comment: This book was the beginning of an awesome personal journey. I suffered with chronic pain for over 7 years before I stumbled across the book and one of its authors. I am fortunate enough to meet personally with one of the authors, but in between my visits I regularly rely on the stretching techniques contained in this manual/book. As one of the other reviewers noted, it is a blessing to be able to go to your own bookshelf, grab a book. and alleviate your own pain or tension. With the new ability to self-manage my own pain through these myofascial release techniques, I have experienced great mental and physical growth. Jill, thank you from my mind, body, and soul!

Summary: A Great Tool
Comment: I am a Pilates teacher who came to the practice through the suggestion of my doctor to help me work through my own chronic pain. Pilates has been a tremendous help, but I am always searching for ways to achieve deeper releases into the body. Last year I discovered the "Myofascial Stretching Book". This book has given me a different perspective on stretching and the fascial system. I use this book regularly for myself and my clients. I have found that the Myofascial Stretches and following the principles of Myofascial Stretching can be much more effective than most traditional stretches. I highly recommend purchasing the yellow ball. A great tool in releasing fascial restrictions in the body. I take it everywhere.

Summary: Excellent stretches with clear explanations
Comment: This book is very helpful in learning how to use myofascial stretching to improve range of motion and loosen the fascia. The explanations are clear and easy to follow, and the accompanying photos make it even easier. The index of stretches helps you to zero in the stretch you need. The principle of holding a stretch for at least two minutes is well explained. A great choice for professional and lay person alike.
