My dad had this book since he was in college and whenever I had a problem (usually headaches) he would consult the Natural Healers book; stimulating the pressure points listed and described in here work better than any medicine I've tried, whether I have a headache, menstrual cramps, dizziness, or a neck ache. Though there are many other accupressure books out there, this one is my favorite. The simple, black & white drawings give accurate representations of the body (both male and female) and show exactly where the accupressure point is located. A brief description of the exact location is also provided since the accupressure point can be slightly different according to one's body/build. This desciption uses anatomical landmarks (i.e., just below the rib cage, a thumbs length above the ankle) to help one locate the right point. There are also numerous points for one problem, so if one point doesn't seem to be working another option is available.
