Don't need to be an expert

Many books on this subject are either fluffy or too technical. This book is an exception. It is written in a friendly and accessible style. You don't need to be an expert or aim to be one, to use this book. It is well produced; the colour photos are functional and crisp. Our modern tempo of life abuses our muscles and mind and they need tending. The chapter on Self-Massage can be used daily while on a train, bus, office or at home while watching television. You can get a friend or partner to join in and use the instructions in the book. It may help you to become an expert in time. I have seen Nicola work and she brings her love and care for the health and healing of people. Just the chapter of Self- Massage will recover the cost of the book. Time to get healthy and relax by using this handy book. Recommend it.
