The end-all for natural health solutions!, Jan 8 2008
By A. Meierding - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Secrets Of Self Healing (Hardcover)
Secrets of Self-Healing contains an unbelievable amount of information! It really opened my eyes to the fact that we all have the innate power to heal our own bodies. There is of course, a time and place for doctors, but the point is that you can't just expect doctors to "fix" every ailment. A case in point: last week I felt myself coming down with a cold, so I flipped to the remedies for cold & flu. I made myself the tea from garlic, ginger, and scallions, got right under the covers to sweat out the pathogens, as suggested, and the next day I felt an amazing improvement. But to really hit home the point, I could have followed Dr. Maoshing Ni's advice for keeping my immune system strong and never become ill in the first place! I highly recommend this book to anyone that wants to discover natural ways to get in good health and stay in good health.

The Absolute Best Alternative Health Reference - And It Works!, Dec 7 2008
By Katherine Graham - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Secrets Of Self Healing (Hardcover)
The five-star reviews here say it all really along with the excellent detail page itself. I have one comment to add: if you only purchased this amazingly thorough reference to obtain the accurate accupressure points for countless ailments from which you or a loved one suffers - the book would pay for itself in no time flat. No book I have ever read provides these points that one can do at home watching TV, reading, writing (use the other hand!) as long as you are relaxed while doing so and of course, breathing! Absolutely a must-have for everyone who wants the shortest distance between two points.

VERY comprehensive, Jan 9 2008
By sassi518 - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Secrets Of Self Healing (Hardcover)
Having studied TCM and the energy movement arts for several years, I was so very glad to see it all integrated in one book....and by an author who lives, teaches, and practices these 'secrets'. How fortunate he is sharing them with us.
Listmania!
