A good read for anyone with HH

Hiatal Hernia was found when I had a CT scan for something else. So I found Dr Baroody's book very informative and helpful, to say the least. He takes the trouble to explain everything well and gives you ways to relieve and help this dreadful condition. I give this book a 5 star but can't for the life of me understand why they are charging so much here for it. One only needs to contact Holographic Health Inc, 800-566-1522 or [...] and 11.95 for the book. Its a real shame some take advantage of others pain. The book is great but not for what they charge here.

This Really Works!

My teenage daughter and I both had digestive problems that were diagnosed as Hiatal Hernia Syndrome. We didn't want to take medicine or consider surgery, so we consulted a Holographic Health chiropractor who recommended techniques in this book. We both greatly improved, so we got the book and now know what to do for ourselves whenever symptoms arise. The main technique is a simple manuever to move the diaphragm downward (we wondered why our doctor didn't know that). This book is paperback and still in print, and is available new from Holographic Health for $11.95. I don't know why it would be more.

It really works!

Most opinions seem to either criticize or laud the holistic approach of this book. I believe there's a balance between the two - while I am presently taking a prescription medication for GERD (that only seems to work moderately), I have had unbelievable relief from a chiropractor that used the methods in Chap. 34. I've been able to control a crisis with the instructions for helping yourself in that chapter. The exercise and diet recommended are working for me as well as the stress reduction techniques. If there's a way to HEAL my problem and not just cover it over with medication for years and years, I can't understand why anyone wouldn't at least try it.

The Cure for Hiatal Hernia

I have not read this book but after seeing the above reviews I wanted to say that I have just been to a Chiropractor today and he pushed down my severe hiatus hernia and the reason I come up with for having it is severe stress and bad diet. This guy seems to know what he is talking about. Doctors just give you pills and twist stomachs. I will be getting this book

Healing Hiatal Hernia

Chronic digestive disorders are common complaints today, but Hiatal Hernia Syndrome (HSS) is one of the least suspected underlying reasons. Even when the condition is actually diagnosed, orthodox medicine has little to offer the HHS sufferer, except for symptom-suppressive drugs and dangerous surgery in extreme cases. The problem is often treated as a nuisance which the patient must "learn to live with." Theodore Baroody, the author of the featured book, offers a more encouraging viewpoint. A chiropractor and naturopath, who also holds a doctorate in nutrition, Dr. Baroody has identified an astoundingly wide range of symptoms that can be traced to the HHS, a condition which he estimates is undermining the health of 85% of the population. Having successfully treated numerous HHS patients, he is convinced that persistent application of the corrective measures detailed in the book can bring lasting relief to even the most difficult cases.When the HHS is present, the stomach is forced upward through a weakened, stretched diaphragm, for minutes or hours at a time, seriously impairing the individual's ability to properly digest and assimilate food. Symptoms typical of the HHS are belching, nausea, and regurgitation. With other seemingly unrelated complaints, such as breathing difficulties, allergies, irregular heartbeat, anxiety attacks, and colic or hyperactivity in children, involvement of the HHS is seldom suspected. Drawing on his profound understanding of physiology and nutritional symptomatology, Dr. Baroody offers the reader clear and insightful explanations of why these and numerous other conditions may be linked to the HHS.What causes a hiatal hernia, and why does it affect such a large number of individuals? Although sometimes the condition may have been induced by a mechanical injury, Dr. Baroody believes that the majority of cases are directly traceable to stress, more specifically our inappropriate reaction to stress. Emotions such as anxiety, anger, and frustration are always accompanied by tension in the stomach and the solar plexus, which has the second largest number of nerve interconnections in the body. The resultant contraction of the stomach and spasm in the disphragm ultimately produce the hiatal hernia.The most significant ensuing pathological change is pinching of the vagus nerve, which extends throughout the entire body, and is largely responsible for controlling the production of hydrochloric acid (HCL). When the vagus nerve is pinched, HCL secretion is curtailed, resulting in incomplete digestion of foods, thus catapulting the body into a state of malnutrition. The book's clear and precise explanations of the many aspects involved in this rather complicated process lay the necessary groundwork for understanding the self-help recommendations that follow.Dr. Baroody's nutritional recommendations for HHS sufferers emphasize a correct ratio of alkaline- and acid-forming foods (8
