Full Description


Eighty million North American women suffer each day with some kind of chronic pain, such as PMS or menstrual pain, back or neck pain, headache, TMJ, carpal tunnel, fibromyalgia and a host of arthritis-related ailments. Yet women's pain differs from men's, biologically and emotionally. It can compromise women's health and affect marital and family relationships, productivity, the ability to earn a living and overall outlook on life. This book offers a holistic programme focused on treating the whole person, using traditional and alternative therapies to manage chronic pain.
