Focusing on proper alignment, posture, and muscle engagement, Egoscue provides simple but powerful techniques to restore flexibility and function while at the same time boosting energy, revving up the immune system, even raising the body's metabolic rate. Organized by the seasons of a woman's life, Pain Free for Women pays particular attention to age-specific concerns such as puberty, childbirth, and menopause, as well as special issues such as arthritis, PMS, and depression.

The remarkable ""e-cises"" in Pain Free for Women have been linked to improved ability to fight disease, cope with aging, and recover from accidents and injuries. You'll find many other astonishing benefits, including-

. Better balance, posture, and breathing, as well as increased resiliency . Effective and safe weight management . Healthy bone density and visual acuity . Heightened sex drive . Delayed symptoms of aging . Peace of mind and general tranquility

Reviews for Pain Free for Women: The Revolutionary Program for Ending Chronic Pain

Women from every walk of life praise the Pain Free advantage: Thanks to Pete Egoscue, I've been pain free for ten years. But even more important, the Egoscue Method has empowered me with the tools to stay that way! It's freedom in the truest sense of the word. -- Carol LeBeau, news anchor and health reporter, KGT-TV, San Diego I was an eleven-year-old aspiring athlete when I first started working with Pete Egoscue. At eighteen, I made tennis history by winning nine straight matches to become the first woman qualifier to get to the semifinals at Wimbledon, a feat only John McEnroe had performed in men's tennis. What a season! The Egoscue Method is a gift to women in every season of their lives. -- Alexandra Stevenson, professional tennis player Pain Free for Women answers the many questions I have about my health and my children's well-being. It has encouraged me to trust my instincts as a mom and to take charge of my family's health. -- Linda Lynch, former professional tennis player and mother of two When I first met Pete Egoscue, I had just had my fourth baby by C-section and was in the hospital recovering from emergency back surgery. I was so weak that I would lie on a futon in the family room as my children played around me! At twenty-nine, I didn't think I would ever be able to play and be active again. Pete and the Egoscue Method showed me how wrong I was! Not only did Pete rehabilitate me and take me out of the severe pain I had dealt with for years, he enabled me to enjoy activities I never could in the past, such as riding horses, playing tennis, soccer, and basketball, running, and practicing yoga. I cannot rave enough about the Egoscue Method. Anyone who is in pain can change their life -- it has been proven! -- Sonia Jones, former model and mother of four Pete Egoscue changed my life in the most positive ways imaginable. Pain Free for Women is a must read for women of all ages -- it's a brilliant blueprint for enhancing the quality of one's life. -- Sheila Grant, arts patron, cofounder of a regional ballet in Texas, and civic leader From the Hardcover edition.
