Perfect Condition Used Book

The used book I purchased was in perfect condition, received promptly, and cost much less than a new book.

An excellent introduction to the practice of Qigong.

In Qigong For Women, Dominque Ferraro gives clear, easy-to-understand instructions, accompanied by sequential photos for dozens of exercises addressing the specific health and fitness needs of women. Along with informative chapters on stress relief, aging, and physical toning, information is included on female sexuality, osteoporosis, menstrual difficulties, and problems related to pregnancy. Through regular practice of Qigong, women can improve blood circulation, reinforce the immune system, and reestablish emotional equilibrium. Middle-aged and older women will enjoy the added benefits of recovering elasticity, whether in their joints or in the psyches. Qigong For Women is essential reader for both novice and experienced female practitioners of Qigong and will prove of immense interest and value to students of alternative health and medicine practices.
