I found this book very informative. While everyone I know has either had carpel tunnel syndrome or knows someone who had it most people are not really informed concerning the alternative treatments and possible causes of the condition.

In my reading I found that there are treatments that bring a degree of relief and do not require immediate surgery. By learning to take care of myself I have experienced a good degree of relief from the constant pain I was causing myself because I didn't know how to avoid it.

I would not recommend only reading the book and not seeking medical attention, but by knowing the questions to ask one can make more intelligent decisions concerning treatment options.

The research seems creditable and the author seems to have had considerable experience with the syndrome.
