With this book in hand, you're on your way to regaining the greatest gift of all: a pain-free body!
Pete Egoscue learned a lot about pain when, as a Marine officer, he was wounded in Vietnam. He segued from patient to physical therapist, and now runs a famous clinic in San Diego, where he claims he's helped 95 percent of his patients cure chronic pain--including Jack Nicklaus and Charles Barkley, whose athletic careers he helped prolong. At the heart of his program are stretches and motion exercises to restore proper function to muscles and joints. His methods are often surprising and counterintuitive. For example, for foot pain, he suggests a series of hip exercises. In fact, this is one of the most startling books you'll read about the human organism. Egoscue has strong opinions about how modern life is changing the way our bodies function, reducing the tasks we must perform and thus reducing the functional range of motion of our muscles and joints. Fortunately, he offers movement exercises to restore what nature meant us to have.

Great intro to good posture, but there are alternatives:

Pain Free is the simplest, most direct explanation of the Egoscue Method available...if you'd like to save hundreds if not thousands of dollars over therapy, get this book.
Pete Egoscue deserves enormous credit for introducing the concept that structural integration - aka postural alignment - is the primary method for relieving all kinds of chronic pain. Western medicine is fantastic at combating "acute" problems (broken bone, heart attack), but has not traditionally been so great at tackling "chronic"... more info

It works!!!:

I saw the author on the Today show many years ago when I was suffering from a cervical compression (neck and shoulder) and had had 6 months of physical therapy but still had pain. His recommended exercises cleared the problem up in less than a month.
I have given away 5 copies of this book and have recommended it every time that someone tells me they are in pain.

Great Book:

I have been plagued with plantar fasciitis for years. After doing the exercises in this book for 2 days, the pain has already subsided and I am able to run 10 miles again without pain. The concepts are straight forward and make complete sense. Would recommend to anyone with pain.

Pain Free:

Pain Free: A Revolutionary Method for Stopping Chronic Pain
This is a fabulous book. I had borrowed it from a a friend and decided I wanted my own copy. The concept is when your muscles are not strong your body is out of alignment and causes pain. The exercises don't require any expensive equipment and they work. The exercises also are not exhausting nor time consuming. In a few minutes a day you can do them. I love this book and system.
