Great introductory book on the connection of chakras, emotions and the condition of your feet. Clear and well organized. Covers a wide variety of foot ailments. The only thing I was left wanting info on was eczema/psoriasis.

I wasn't quite sure what to expect with this one when I ordered it, so there was a little disappointment. Some things went right along with my Toe Reading materials and some things were different. This addresses the entire foot, rather than just the toes. Will be a good reference book for the future. Would also be interesting to refexologists and foot zoners. I liked the information on chakra relationships and on what our choice of shoes and shoe color tells about us.
