Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Acupressure," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Acupressure in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Acupressure when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences.

An auto accident left Cathryn Bauer with such a badly damaged leg that her orthopedist believed her limp and chronic pain were permanent.

This small, clearly written reference book discusses why acupressure is effective. ("It began with the observation that when you are hurt, your hand instinctively moves to cover the injury.") It tells--succinctly--how to work with acupressure points, what precautions to take, and the Western and Asian views of the discipline. Sections address treatments for alleviating the suffering related to PMS, pregnancy, menopause, and aging. Forty-four anatomical drawings show the specific points for these common ailments. ...
