Finando, L.Ac., L.M.T., coauthor of Trigger Point Therapy for Myofascial Pain Based on Hanne Marquardt's early training with Eunice Ingham and her many years of practical experience as a therapist and teacher, this authoritative manual describes the reflex zones of the feet in detail.

Marquardt also includes new information on symptoms, massage techniques, treating babies and children, and recent discoveries in reflexology such as the solar plexus zone.
