Each routine is directed toward a particular problem: easing tension and stress in different parts of the body; relieving backache and tension headaches; improving well-being during pregnancy; soothing babies and young children; relieving sports injuries and joint pain; and more. More than 400 specially commissioned colour photographs and step-by-step instructions provide guidance through each routine.
