"Trigger point massage therapy may be the most effective treatment known for a wide variety of pain problems, including fibromyalgia and myofascial pain syndrome." —C. Norman Shealy, MD, PhD, founding president of the American Holistic Medical Association and author of The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Healing Remedies, "This is ... a well-organized, easy-to-use handbook that will indeed help sufferers of myofascial pain learn to treat themselves with effective self-massage techniques. The detail and clarity of the book's format will also make it invaluable to pain physicians who want to be able to teach their patients useful, simple strategies to manage soft tissue pain problems." --Joseph F. Audette, MD, instructor at Harvard Medical School and director of Outpatient Pain Services at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital in Medford, MA, "This must-have book gives practical methods for dealing with chronic pain in a format that is easy to use, and it works! I'm a believer!" —Jo Ann Gillaspy, MS, RN, editor of The Nephrology Resource Directory, "As a chiropractor for twelve years and an instructor of trigger point therapy at the Utah College of Massage Therapy for ten years, I found the Davies' book very accurate and complete. The graphics and illustrations make it easy to show patients and clients ways to improve quality of life. I believe the book will be a valuable asset to all health care practitioners who use trigger point therapy." --David B. Thomson, DC, instructor at the Utah College of Massage Therapy, "This is … a well-organized, easy-to-use handbook that will indeed help sufferers of myofascial pain learn to treat themselves with effective self-massage techniques.

Audette, MD, instructor at Harvard Medical School and director of Outpatient Pain Services at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital in Medford, MA, "I have long been a believer in and practitioner of trigger point therapy. I certainly recommend this book to the general public and health care practitioners. It is truly an excellent resource and provides the tools that induce self-healing and empowerment." --Bernie S. Siegel, MD, author of Love, Medicine, and Miracles and Prescriptions for Living and former student of Janet Travell, MD, author of Travell and Simons' Myofascial Pain and Dysfunction: The Trigger Point Manual "As a chiropractor for twelve years and an instructor of trigger point therapy at the Utah College of Massage Therapy for ten years, I found the Davies' book very accurate and complete.

I hope physicians will study these self-treatment techniques and recommend them to their patients." —Rose Marie Hackett, DO, osteopathic physician and radiologist, "This is a useful book for anyone in chronic pain. There are few resources like this one, which empowers the reader to understand the problem and offers the tools to manage it. The approach to managing pain described in this book will help many take control of a significant part of their health and will become a valuable lifelong reference." --Scott M. Fishman, MD, chief of the Division of Pain Medicine in the Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine at the University of California, Davis and author of The War on Pain, " The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook is a welcome and timely addition to the worlds of personal wellness, pain relief, and self-care.

King, founder and president of the Chicago School of Massage Therapy, "As a medical doctor who has been challenged by patients experiencing chronic pain, including those suffering from long-standing cases of fibromyalgia, I appreciate a safe solution for their problem. I believe this book, revealing that trigger point therapy may safely relieve chronic pain, should be in the hands of every doctor." —Terry Shepherd Friedmann, MD, author of Freedom Through Health, "Properly used, the information in the Davies's book should enable many people with myofascial trigger point disorders to participate effectively in treating their conditions. The book should be especially useful to those who do not have ready access to a practitioner familiar with the diagnosis and treatment of these common muscular problems." —Michael D.

Edition Description
Revised edition,Workbook,New Edition
Synopsis
Trigger point therapy is one of the fastest-growing and most effective pain therapies in the world. Medical doctors, chiropractors, physical therapists, and massage therapists are all beginning to use this technique to relieve patients' formerly undiagnosable muscle and joint pain, both conditions that studies have shown to be the cause of nearly 25 percent of all doctor visits. This book addresses the problem of myofascial trigger points--tiny contraction knots that develop in a muscle when it is injured or overworked. Restricted circulation and lack of oxygen in these points cause referred pain. Massage of the trigger is the safest, most natural, and most effective form of pain therapy. Trigger points create pain throughout the body in predictable patterns characteristic to each muscle, producing discomfort ranging from mild to severe. Trigger point massage increases circulation and oxygenation in the area and often produces instant relief. The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook, Third Edition, has made a huge impact among health professionals and the public alike, becoming an overnight classic in the field of pain relief. This edition includes a new chapter by the now deceased author, Clair Davies' daughter, Amber Davies, who is passionate about continuing her father's legacy. The new edition also includes postural assessments and muscle tests, an illustrated index of symptoms, and clinical technique drawings and descriptions to assist both practitioners and regular readers in assessing and treating trigger points.

    The book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.

    Clueless Doctors

    I've had a serious (10 bulging disks with facet joint nerve interference) back injury for nearly 25 years. I've been to more doctors, massage therapists, and chiropractors over the years and none of them could identify, much less, treat my issue of inflamed, tight muscles that are now turning into strands of green beans. And as a result, I'm losing strength in my legs. But, I now have the right tool that gives me great hope because everything I'm reading about in this book matches up perfectly with my issues. Not one doctor or health care professional could tell me what was wrong with me, much less how I could go about getting relief. I bought a massage table, lots of tennis balls and armed with the Trigger Point Therapy Workbook 3rd Ed., I'm healing myself one trigger point at a time. ...

    I keep giving my copies away.

    This book has been a life changer for me. This is not woo woo stuff, but is based in science. The author was JFK's White House physician. Research was done in the 50's. This is a workbook for self diagnosis and self care. Highly recommended.

    Gives you hope.

    The book is dense reading. This, the third edition, is easier to understand than the second edition. It is a self-help manual for people prepared to apply their minds to their own aches and pains. It puts power - literally - in your hands. It is a much cheaper option than paying a therapist but you need to study it and start very carefully.

    This book could not only make your own life more comfortable

    but lead to your helping friends and relatives relieve their daily muscle pain too. It is GREAT DIY book tells you everything you need to do with step-by-step text. It could also lead to a new career as myofacial pain management is in high demand at every primary care physician's office. Learn it and do it!
