Publication Date: 1998-12-31
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0806917555
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780806917559
Binding: Paperback


Product Description:

Explore the powerful secrets of Thai massage--a vigorous technique that will enhance your health, happiness, and wholeness, and create a fresh, stimulating, giving-receiving relationship between you and your partner. Like other forms of massage, you employ a flowing sequence of stretches, but instead of using only your fingers, pressure is applied with thumbs, palms, elbows, knees, and feet. It has been called "yoga in action," with its emphasis on relaxing your mind, restoring your energy, and conditioning your body. A detailed program for complete body massage covers ten lessons, each concentrating on a particular part of your body. Full-color photographs of every move match still shots with superimposed artwork that indicates the directions of the movements you make. Each technique is clearly explained and its benefits detailed. Many have names as calming and as invigorating as the actions: Spiraling Arms, Opening the Energy Gates, Rainbow Dance, Flying Wild Goose, and The Longest Yawn and Stretch in the Universe. More than most massage techniques, Thai massage enhances the bond between partners, with its unity of mind and body, and its harmony of body and body. As you become familiar with the sequences, you'll experience the coming-together of the precise positions and postures to create a cumulative impact. Besides the principal program, there's a section on ways to devise your own approach for addressing specific healing needs such as stress, chronic pain, postural problems, and insomnia. Another feature: brief sessions for busy days. 144 pages (all in color), 8 1/2 x 11.

The Medium is the Massage

Publication Date: 2005-10
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1584230703
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781584230700
Binding: Paperback




Product Description:

Millions of "global villagers" connected by the communications revolution Marshall McLuhan foresaw, have never read the most influential, prophetic, and entertaining book ever written on the subject--The Medium is the Message (originally published in 1967). The authors have selected excerpts from McLuhan's most electrifying theories and insights. By linking text with images, they created this mesmerizing, first-of-its kind book. Photos and illustrations.



Amazon.com Review:

The Medium is the Massage is Marshall McLuhan's most condensed, and perhaps most effective, presentation of his ideas. Using a layout style that was later copied by Wired, McLuhan and coauthor/designer Quentin Fiore combine word and image to illustrate and enact the ideas that were first put forward in the dense and poorly organized Understanding Media. McLuhan's ideas about the nature of media, the increasing speed of communication, and the technological basis for our understanding of who we are come to life in this slender volume. Although originally printed in 1967, the art and style in The Medium is the Massage seem as fresh today as in the summer of love, and the ideas are even more resonant now that computer interfaces are becoming gateways to the global village.

The first edition of this workbook is regarded as a classic in its field, and was the first book to introduce trigger point therapy to the general public as a self-care tool for alleviating chronic pain caused by a variety of conditions, including arthritis, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, fibromyalgia, headache, muscle ache, and repetitive strain injuries. As the author makes clear, all such conditions are related to lack of oxygen in exhausted or injured muscle tissue. Trigger point therapy has been used for decades by doctors, pain specialists, and massage therapists to quickly stimulate the flow of oxygen and promote rapid pain reduction. This book makes the same techniques available to the general public with instructions that are easy to follow, and abetted by an extensive collection of charts and corresponding illustrations.

The author's interest in trigger point therapy began when he used it to successfully treat his frozen shoulder. Since that time, he has dedicated himself to teaching others the same techniques. That dedication is obvious throughout his writing and the care he takes to make the therapy understandable to the lay public. Also included in this new edition is updated information that should be of great interest to pain specialists and bodyworkers, as well as useful instruction in a variety of relaxation techniques. Overall, this book is an excellent self-care resource for anyone interested in pain relief.--Larry Trivieri Jr.

Summary: The Only Book of its Kind
Rating: 3

This is the only book in print I know of that attempts to discuss allergies from the point of view of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and for that reason alone it is a valuable contribution. This book makes a valiant attempt to explain the theories of TCM as they relate to hayfever, in a way that laypeople can understand. I believe it succeeds. TCM can only be understood on its own terms, not in relation to Western allopathic or any other medical system. This book makes that point beautifully clear. All of the TCM theory in the book is solid and well-worded, including a very helpful glossary of TCM terms. Bob Flaws has written and translated numerous texts on TCM in his many years as a doctor of TCM.

If you suffer from hayfever, I can generally recommend implementing the advice in this book, much of which can be done by yourself. However, I take issue with the fact that little mention is made of adverse reactions to Chinese herbs, especially allergic reactions to the herbs, their constituents, toxins present such as fungicides sprayed on herbs when they are exported from China, pesticide residues, possible non-herbal additives, and even toxic packaging. Reactions to these things is on the rise, especially in the population of people with other allergies, such as food allergies. Chinese herbs are, of course, safer than Western pharmaceuticals, but they have their drawbacks and I have seen many patients with problems from "natural" and "herbal" remedies because of allergies to those remedies, or as is more often the case, to the fumigants and pesticides on the herbs and the plastic bottles some natural medicines are packaged in. I also am not sure that laypeople can safely learn to use such techniques as moxa, cupping, and plum blossom from a book alone. It is far better to get a hands-on lesson from a professional if you want to do these techniques yourself.

Despite his years of experience, and his own personal experience with allergies, Dr. Flaws does not really mention any way of actually "curing" hayfever, as the book title suggests. This book is all about harm reduction, about symptom management. To this end, the book is thorough and I'm sure the advice he gives is very effective. But it won't make you stop being allergic, which he claims is impossible. (It's not impossible!) As Bob Flaws makes clear, it is up to you to manage your own lifestyle in healthy ways and not to rely on doctors or experts to fix you. However, many people who do lead healthy lives and have tried a great deal of natural medicine still have allergies, and may still have symptoms that trouble them a little or a lot. Following the advice in this book may help a great deal, but may be only a starting point. There are TCM methods beyond the scope of this book that can help when the advice in this book is not enough, and when seeing an acupuncturist or herbalist is not enough, or actually makes the problem worse. The cure is possible within the system of TCM, but not through the methods mentioned here. The methods I'm referring are more esoteric.

Though Dr. Flaws emphasizes that TCM is holistic (it is), there is little mention of spiritual causative factors or spiritual solutions to allergies. He advises the use of guided relaxation tapes, and that is as close as he gets to spiritual. There is more to spiritual healing than relaxing your body. Spiritual esoterica is really beyond the scope of this book, but spiritual esoterica of TCM is exactly where the real cure lies. Without the spiritual element, TCM is no longer "holistic."

This book also neglects the modern toxic world, beyond the mention of the hazards of diet soda. There are reasons why allergies have become so common, and for some, so severe. Many of the causes, be they spiritual and/or modern problems, are not addressed in this book. "Faulty diet, lack of adequate exercise, and too much stress," are causes of health imbalances in general, to be sure, but often really just aggravate a situation that already exists.

Many of the limits of this book are simply limits in scope. The concepts lacking may or may not be suitable for lay people, or may be beyond the understanding of Bob Flaws, who may be an expert on TCM but not necessarily an expert on allergies. On the other hand, the detailed herbal formulas, the acupoint-specific massage section, and the chapter on research are all fairly technical even to the point of being tedious, and may not be very helpful to laypeople either. All in all, the book is a good starting place, but not really about a "cure."
