Eighty million North American women suffer each day with some kind of chronic pain, such as PMS or menstrual pain, back or neck pain, headache, TMJ, carpal tunnel, fibromyalgia and a host of arthritis-related ailments. Yet women's pain differs from men's, biologically and emotionally.

This book offers a holistic programme focused on treating the whole person, using traditional and alternative therapies to manage chronic pain.
