Rezensionen

"This book aims to describe the scientific principles that underline manual lymph drainage.""Treatment strokes and stroke sequences are then described for specific body areas, as well as hand placement, pressure and movement. These chapters, indeed the whole book, are extensively illustrated with photos and/or illustrations on nearly every page."Matthew Boylan. Journal of the Australian Traditional-Medicine Society, June 2006
