It is a good book on knee pain which took me a long time to read, as I now have 2 artificial knees. Even though meant for women, most of the book would apply to men with knee problems. Very comprehensive in treatment options and very easy to understand.

My Bible for how to reduce my knee pain.

[Chris]

Author is a D.O. (Osteopath) and gives very good description of the many things that can go wrong with your knee. My year and a half with orthopedic surgeons left me with very little understanding of what was going on in my knees and why they thought arthroscopic surgery would help. It is such a complicated joint and there are many bones, ligaments, cartilage parts, tendons, fluids, nerves and muscles than be damaged or go awry from injury or over use. I now "get" why my second knee still hurts and is not right, and I will soon start with a physical therapist and exercise therapist to work on correcting the underlying problem. I really do not want to have knee replacement 10 yrs from now, as the doc predicted.

This book offered a wholistic view of joint health that made sense to me.
