About the Book

"Body Wisdom" gives clear, practical information and advice about the human body and how to maintain it in good working order.

Written by an experienced physiotherapist it explains how and why you can prevent or reduce aches and pains, stiffness and injury by developing a few common-sense habits.

Do you wish you could prevent or relieve that nagging back or neck ache?

Do you find your troublesome knees or hips, shoulders or hands are limiting your activities - at work, at home, at leisure - and want to know how to improve them?

"Body Wisdom" is full of informative text, drawings and case-histories - a useful reference for daily life, for all ages.


About the Author

Physiotherapy can be a wonderfully satisfying and varied career. Jackie Wright, MCSP, MACP, has made good use of the opportunities. She has worked for the National Health Service - in hospitals, clinics and in the community - but also in Uganda, Italy, Australia and Malawi. She has taught in a School of Physiotherapy and spent two years with VSO (Voluntary Service Overseas) helping to establish a Rehabilitation Training School.

It hasn't all been work. She travelled by land-rover from England to Southern Africa and sailed with her husband and two sons from Australia.

Most recently she has been working in Woodbridge, Suffolk, where she now lives.

Sandra Morris is an artist and English teacher. She and Jackie are cousins.
