With 77 reflex zones and 66 acupressure points, the soles of the feet are essentially a map to the human body, each one corresponds to an organ, muscle or other potential problem area. By implementing reflexology and acupressure techniques, you may be able to alleviate pain and discomfort, fatigue, stress and symptoms of chronic disease. These techniques can be done anytime and anywhere, and require just a few minutes a day. With easy-to-understand language and more than 200 color photos and diagrams-including computer-generated maps to help you locate the points on your own feet, this book is a comprehensive introduction to reflexology and acupressure for beginners (or for those who don't have time to go to reflexology or acupuncture appointments).

- Sleep Disorders by Wilson, Sue(Research fellow)(CARDINAL)489558;
Sleep dysfunction is one of the primary symptoms reported by patients with psychiatric disorders, and specifically those suffering from anxiety and depressive disorders. Conversely, primary insomnia and other sleep disorders produce symptoms of mood disturbance that are quite similar to those reported by patients with psychiatric disorders. Because of this overlap in the symptoms and treatments for insomnias and psychiatric disorders, it is important for clinicians to be able to accurately identify the root cause of sleep dysfunction in individual patients in order to optimize treatment. Part of the Oxford Psychiatry Library series, Sleep Disorders provides clinicians with an overview of current understanding of sleep physiology, the pathophysiology of sleep disturbance, and the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. This second edition includes new sections covering sleep problems in children, sleep in the elderly, and sleep in pregnancy and menopause, as well as new algorithms from the British Association of Psychopharmacology's (BAP's) new Consensus Guidelines on the management of sleep disorders.
