The Egoscue Method Of Health Through Motion: Revolutionary Program That Lets You Rediscover the Body's Power to Rejuvenate It [Paperback]

Modern humans move far less than our forebears did, which Egoscue claims causes muscular weakness that can affect bodily alignment. When muscle weakness causes one side of the body to bear less than its share of the weight, the resulting distortion may cause dysfunction and pain in many areas. Egoscue, who runs clinics in California and Florida, shows three common "conditions" of misalignment and offers simple exercises designed to counteract the condition by strengthening the relevant muscles. He also discusses the most popular types of aerobic exercises and how they may affect each condition. A good purchase for public libraries.

"Peter Escogue totally changed my life." -- -- from the Foreword by Jack Nicklaus

Pete Egoscue has been studying human anatomy for more than twenty years. His method has helped thousands of people learn low tolive healhier, pain-free livers and achiever complete ftness. He currently runs clinics in San Diego, California, and West Palm Beach, Florida.

Egoscue's theory is that the human body is meant to be in motion; as lifestyles have become more sedentary, the musculoskeletal system has gone out of alignment. The cassette is based upon Egoscue's clinical work and his book of the same title. Egoscue's voice is intermittently flat, fumbling and condescending. The first tape, which is devoted to an explanation of his method, is repetitious. The second tape covers the exercises. The tape is detailed enough to follow, but it would require copious note-taking by the listener to be of use. Audio is not an appropriate format for this topic. E.L.C.
