5 out of 5 stars Brilliant - Why isn't this common knowledge?   January 8, 2009
I bought this book after borrowing a copy from the local library. My shoulder is 100% fixed now. The methods shown in this book are clearly explained and very well illustrated. This truly is a self help book. Since unlocking my right shoulder I have since bought Claire Davies first book, "The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook", which covers the whole body. My legs no longer cramp when I'm cycling nor do I suffer knee pain any longer.

One must ask, WHY couldn't my Doctor or Osteopath do this? Astounding...



5 out of 5 stars Christmas Gift   January 8, 2009
Bought as a gift for two relatives with shoulder problems...

So I didn't actually read this book; just flipped though it..

Seems to have quite a bit of information on though..

Gift recipients said they enjoyed it..

So no complaints...

5 out of 5 stars More than frozen shoulder   November 20, 2008
Clair Davies wrote this guide as a follow-up to the Trigger Point Therapy Workbook. Although the title suggests a focus on frozen shoulder, it seems that Clair thought it wise to include some of the extra material that didn't fit in his first book. Other readers have noticed the depth of detail and encyclopedic reach of this book. Many have been frustrated by that, expecting to find a simple how-to guide that helps with their painful shoulder problem.

That information is in here. You just have to wade through it. If you give it the time, and practice what you see, the benefits are enormous, profound and far exceed your effort.

Clair Davies was a genius. Both his books are excellent and together they form a body of knowledge more people should be familiar with. More doctors and physiotherapists need to study these books. Both are essential in your home medical library.

As a victim of frozen shoulder, I am familiar with the confusion and concern that accompanies the disease. Most people with frozen shoulder are misdiagnosed at first, told they have tendonitis, bursitis, rotator cuff damage, or impingement, until the shoulder actually freezes up several months into the disease. Then they are poorly advised, instructed about invisible "adhesions", blamed for their problem, told scary stories how they could permanently lose their flexibility, and then tortured with unnecessary stretching or worse, violent medical procedures that tear the shoulder joint to make it loose. Crazy stuff in this day and age. Patient beware.

Scientific and rational advice like the kind Clair Davies laid out here will help you through your pain. So will the faith that your illness will go away as mysteriously as it appeared, without any intervention at all. In most cases, you can simply ride your frozen shoulder out.

Clair Davies was your friend. Buy his books.

2 out of 5 stars not for the everyday person   November 10, 2008

I suffer from frozen shoulder and thought this book could help me. I think this book would be good for someone who is a PT or a doctor, but for the everyday person with no medical background no way.The reason I purchased the book was because they made it out to be easy reading, but it is far from that.
