Arthritis Relief, Third Edition: Chinese Qigong for Healing and Prevention
Rheumatoid Arthritis runs in my family and 1.5 years ago I was also diagnosed. I have recently taken myself off Methotrexate because of the way it lowers the immune system. I was very worried about how to treat the disease at this point. This book offered hope in a new and interesting way to provide arthritis relief with regular exercise or Qigong. The diagrams are very well done and easy to follow, and the exercises seem much better than what I received from my Rheumatologist. What was really exciting is the possibility that Qigong may cure arthritis, with my persistence of the exercises. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to prevent, treat, and heal arthritis!

This book provided helpful exercises and a wealth of background information to support them. So much of Qigong depends on really understanding the underlying concepts. This book presents these underlying concepts in a very comprehensive, but easy-to-read and fascinating way. If you are serious about Qigong this book with help you make great strides forward in your practice.

Written by a Chinese martial arts and Qigong instructor who has trained and practiced since 1961, Arthritis Relief: Chinese Qigong For Healing And Prevention is now in an updated third edition with revised instructions for performing its suggested exercises. Presented as a complement to Western medicine, which is more proficient at relieving pain and inflammation than promoting full healing, Arthritis Relief demonstrates Qigong exercises and massage/acupressure techniques designed to rebuild the strength of one’s joints, as well as an overview of arthritis itself and the dietary, genetic, and other factors that cause it. Black-and-white photographs demonstrate the recommended exercises and body movements. Though it cannot replace a visit to one’s physician, Arthritis Relief is a welcome, easy-to-follow supplement especially for those suffering from arthritis and who want to do something more about it than just taking medicine.
