 The Encyclopedia of Bodywork: From Acupressure to Zone Therapy
ASIN: 0816031878
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: A fabulous resource and very readable
Comments: The word "comprehensive" may have been invented to describe this book - it definitely is an encyclopedia, not just in its alphabetic listing and cross-references, but also in its breadth of knowledge. Unless you are a bodywork specialist, this book probably has much more than you would ever want to know about what seem to be some very esoteric practices. However, it is a fabulous resource to use to find out about alternative therapies (the section on acupuncture was the most comprehensive and easy to read I have come across in all my research) and Stillerman has a wonderful bibliography and resource listing (many resources have been transcribed into my Complementary Medicine Resources list). Reading it from cover to cover as I did was an interesting experience in that it showed the interrelated qualities and history of many types of bodywork (some individuals had the same teachers or came out of the same schools of thought and developed in their own direction). Stillerman does not judge any of the bodywork methods she reviews so it is up to the reader to decide whether or not a particular method would be right for their condition (this is where the bibliography and resource list is invaluable for further investigation). An excellent resource but unless you're a massage/bodywork professional, you probably won't want to purchase this book - just borrow it from the library.

 Healing With Color Zone Therapy (Healing Series)
ASIN: 0895949253
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: A superb introduction to a powerful healing technique.
Comments: Color Zone Therapy is a combination of two very powerful healing techniques: Zone Therapy and Color Therapy. Joseph Corvo, a master practitioner of Zone Therapy, has been a healer for more than thirty-seven years. Lilian Verner-Bonds is an internationally respected practitioner of Color Therapy. They combined their healing techniques into a powerful new therapy, which they present in Healing With Color Zone Therapy. Color Zone Therapy is a unique and simple system of treatment that can eliminate illness, pain and tiredness; help you look and feel younger; and enable you to meet life with energy, vigor and vitality." It treats the whole person, including emotional and spiritual aspects. Color Zone Therapy can be used with any conventional medical treatments that readers may already be using. The authors first explain each technique and how it works. They also provide detailed instructions so that readers can use each method for self-healing. The bulk of the book is devoted to "An A to Z of illnesses and their treatment" that enables readers to apply Zone Therapy and Color Therapy in combination to alleviate specific ailments. Readers are first advised to become aware of the causes of their ailment. This involves understanding how negative thoughts and attitudes affect health. They are then taught affirmations that will help them replace negativity with "positive permanent thinking replacement." Each disease has its own healing color and its own particular zone pressure points. "Zone Therapy uses physical stimulus, while Color Therapy works through more intangible stimuli, ie the emotions." The essence of the combined therapies is to tune into the healing color, repeat the affirmations, and apply pressure to the appropriate zones. The treatment is repeated daily for ten minutes each day. The final section of the book deals with the special problems of children, aging adults, and people dealing with grief. Healing With Color Zone Therapy is an essential reference for all those desiring to help their bodies heal in a natural and non-invasive way. Paper, 169 pp. -- Sandra I. Smith, Reviewer
