'Works Like Magic!!!!" by May Palmer (Lynnwood, Washington) 5 Stars
October 28, 2009
'Pain Free at your PC' is simply AMAZING!! Quite frankly, I have NO IDEA why it works so well but, I am sooo grateful to Pete Esoscue for writing and sharing this information with the rest of us! I had agonizing shoulder, shoulder blade,chest and neck pain for the last several years. The computer only agravated the problem rendering me sometimes in agony just trying to type. Let me tell you that after only THREE sessions of doing the exercises in 'Pain Free at your PC' I don't have any of those pains anymore! I am sleeping soundly every night and feel full of energy and invigorated! Wow, what a relief to know that I don't have to go the surgical route now! If you are in PAIN, do yourself a favor and get this book ASAP! THANK YOU, Pete Esoscue for your amazing talent!!!

My husband and I have both benefitted from this book. We owned a copy for years that we would loan out to others which we finally ended up giving to a man who has terrible back and neck problems. I would also be interested to try the other Egoscue books and DVDs. At one point in time my husband had a desk that moved a dozen ways, an ergonomic chair, and a wrist brace on both arms...the resulting back, neck, and arm pain from heavy computer usage was not getting any better. He got this book and, as long as he does the e-cises, he feels great. We both highly recommend this book.

I am the owner and instructor of a yoga studio and have many students who come to me for help with nagging muscle and nerve impingment problems. I found this book to have some simple exercises that truly help people who spend a large part of their day slumped over a computer screen. And the exercises are not hard and don't take much time to get real results. Give it a try...I highly reccommend this book to all.

Excellent book! A must read for people experiencing chronic pain. Don't let the title fool you. It's not just for people using a PC. It's for anyone who does any repetitive movement for long periods of time.

No one is immune. For people from champion athletes to desk-bound white-collar professionals, many simple acts of life--a relaxing evening stroll through the neighborhood, an exhilarating run along a sandy beach, just bending down to tie a loose shoelace-are often acts of torture. The walking wounded suffer from torn rotator cuffs, tennis elbow, jogger's knees, bad backs, stiff necks, sore feet, and swollen ankles. It could, without exaggeration, be called a modem epidemic.
