Review:
Hurray for us simpletons.

First, let me just mention this books saved my job. As a computer programmer I found my wrists becoming worse and worse over time. I scheduled my routine chiropractic visits for awhile, but soon, I found my funds were running dry. On top of this, my wife was suffering at her work due to back pains. Since we could not afford routine chiropractic visits and needed to do something, we decided to give this book a try.

Today, I am back to work with almost no pain in my wrists. My wife can sit at work the entire day without suffering back pains. We find that the chiropractic visits are not enough for routine maintenance. We require adjustments several times per week. We cannot afford this. At the same time I am exercising to strengthen the muscles. Eventually, I am certain things will stay in place. We have decided that in the more serious cases we will see the chiropractor. But for routine maintenance (which we would not see the chiropractor for anyway), we will do it ourselves.

Do NOT listen to the "chirobabble" being spit out in the negative reviews. The techniques are simple and have had no negative affects on us. I believe we would have to try real hard to mess them up. The only people it hurts are the chiropractors, as they receive less visits from us.

What a Joke!!!

In most States a Chiropractor needs an undergraduate degree in Biology or some other science, then graduate studies at an accredited Chiropractic School. The idea that someone can make a specific adjustment at home is insane. Just wait for the first person who breaks a neck or ribs- Mr. Karl there is itchin' for a lawsuit. What's next "Do-it-yourself" gall bladder removal... we all have a knife and a needle and thread. How bout getting your stomach stapled... all you need is a knife and a stapler!!!

A MUST HAVE BOOK stop being a cash cow!

I have been seeing chiropractors for 20 years now. Between my insurance company and I many thousands have been spent. Immediatly after an accident a chiro is needed. Once you are in the 'maintenance' mode they are NOT needed. This books shows you the simple maintenance manipulations that are safe and easy, including the ones on the neck. You must buy the video that supplants this book. I live in Alaska where a simple 2 second treatment costs $50. What a racket! Stop being a cash cow and take control of your spinal maintenance and buy this book! You don't see a doctor for a simple headache? Why see a chiropractor for a simple adjustment? I adjust my brother and my wife and they adjust me. We have been doing the maintenance adjustments following the methods of this book for 8 years now and feel fantastic.

Review:
It's about time this knowledge is available to the public!!!

This is an excellent book. As the author notes a number of people try to adjust their spine by "popping" their back at home. They really don't know what they are doing, just that it feels good. Why not show them the correct way to do this. After all it's not rocket science. I have had the book and video for several months and have never felt better. Not only am I able to stand and walk longer, I also sleep more soundly. My wife's back-aches are a thing of the past. It has improved our health and well being immensely.
The two negative reviews below from Chiropractors just goes to show you that the secret is out. I would bet that neither of them have read the book, and are merely threatened by the knowledge that most people can take care of a majority of their chiropractic needs at home.
