Acupoint and Trigger Point Therapy for Babies and Children: A Parent's Healing Touch
"Basic children's anatomy and physiology are presented in easy terms parents can understand, making this an excellent pick for any parent's library." (The Midwest Book Review)"Why this book has not been written before is a mystery, but now, here it is. [A] wonderful gift for mother-to-be, dads, grandparents, nurses, and caregivers." (Martha Stoodley, writer and yoga teacher)" . . . a resource that takes our natural healing touch to a whole new level. . . . the practices in this text merely expand on our natural instincts." (Dr. Tami Brady, TCM Reviews, Feb 2008)"Finando doesn't suggest that we turn our backs on Western medicine, but rather that we expand our families' wellness and medicine chests by discovering the power our bodies have to self-heal when ancient healing practices are applied." (Terri Hall-Jackson, Care2 Green Living, Jan 2008)“This book reveals the importance of touch in both childhood development and healing. Donna Finando shows that touch is also key to restoring health when illness occurs. . . Findndo presents an in-depth explanation of each condition, providing information on causative factors, dietary and behavior recommendations, point techniques that can offer relief, and when to seek medical help.” (Embody Magazine, March 2011)“Instructions for treatment are provided step by (numbered) step. Notes are included in a contrasting color after many of the steps, explaining why you’re treating the exact area you’re treating. Facing pages include diagrams of a child’s body with the sections you’ll be treating highlighted in red. The skeleton is included in these drawings so you have good reference points...It isn’t encyclopedic, but it covers all of the most common childhood illnesses. Because it doesn’t rely on acupoint therapy alone, this would make a good general-purpose health book for a new parent.” (Titus2homemaker.com, July 2013)
