I remember when I first came across this book many years ago. I was intrigued. I practiced what I could from the book, then took a beginner's class in TFH. Eventually I took their instructor training and I was on my way. Now after 25 years of private practice in Natural Healing I still find that I am using the applied kinesiology that I learned in this book. Even though I have gone on to advanced formal trainings and studied in many countries around the world, I can still recommend this book for people who want to learn a lot about self care from a single book.
Several methods of treatment are covered including meridian therapy, stimulation of neuro-vascular points, neuro-lymphatic points and acupressure. You will find that many of the techniques shown can be utilized immediately for your health and the health of your family.
One caution: This book has a tremendous amount of information packed in very concisely. It may lead you to additional studies for the rest of your life. I hope it does. It did for me.

This is the most effective home health system I have ever seen: you can set and meet almost any mind/body goal using this system and even kids can use it effectively, with proper instruction. The only pitfall of this book is that you need to take a class to be able to use the book effectively! The chatty writing style obscures the simple procedures that make Touch For Health so easy to use.
The quantity of information is astounding...The food testing information alone is worth the price of the book!
But I definitely recommend finding a class or writing to the author to get a handle on how to use the book. It's absolutely worth the time and effort: I've saved a lot of money on medical bills by maintaining my health with Touch For Health.

I have been using Touch for Health as a part of my life for almost 20 years. I can't imagine life without it. After learning a few basic premises & techniques (more readily learned with experienced assistance) it allows a lay person to utilize acupressure effectively! If that isn't enough to amaze you, the applied kinesiology allows an individual to ask the brain direct questions and to receive direct, correct, answers about the body's condition. Kinesiology can be used to determine if the body needs a substance (vitamins, minerals), and if so how much. It also can be used to determine what food items cause negative reactions. Regular practical use of Touch for Health will teach the user to better understand the interrelation between the body's different components, thereby making many health mysteries understandable. Most amazing is that nothing in this review is hyperbole, but rather, understatement!
Using Touch for Health helps an individual discover one of the most important secrets of life: that human touch is so much more than just sex or punishment. YOU can learn the magic of 'the laying on of hands.'
