Welcome to Bodymending.com where you’ll find books that give you simple solutions to complex problems. So what exactly sets these books apart? A few reasons:

• Books are short and concise so you can get you the information and tools you need quickly. After all, what good is a long book filled with great information if you never finish it?

• Solutions involve little or no equipment. When the reader is asked to do exercises, they involve either no equipment at all, or common, inexpensive items such as adjustable ankle weights.

• Books are in a language you can understand. Solving a problem usually involves understanding what’s going on first. Since it’s really easy to get lost when learning about subjects such as anatomy, physiology, and psychology, everything is purposely put in layman’s terms. As far as I’m concerned, if I can’t get the reader to understand all the information, the book has failed.

• Books are proven to work. And what do I mean by “proven?” Well, the highest form of proof in medicine that a treatment actually works is when it has been shown to be effective in a randomized controlled trial (which I explain in every book). If you check out the reference section in any of my books, you will see that the treatments and tools offered to the reader have shown effectiveness in one or more randomized controlled trials that have been published in peer-reviewed journals. Now take a good look at your typical self-help book (and its reference section) and you’ll find very few that can actually make this claim. I see no point in wasting your time or money on hit or miss solutions or what I “think” will work for you. If a treatment doesn’t have a randomized controlled trial to back it up, it doesn’t make the book. Period.

• Books give you tools that you can immediately put to use. These are what I call “action” books- they never leave you wondering “what now?” When you buy a book, you’re paying for all the time I’ve spent sifting through piles of research (more than my wife cares to see lying around my house) to bring you simple solutions you can begin using- as soon as you put the book down. The way I see it, the faster you can begin implementing the solution, the quicker your problem is going to go away.

In short, the books offered here are to the point, practical, involve simple solutions, and have proven effectiveness. So take your time browsing around and enjoy the site.
