great bookFebruary 24, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
very helpful and useful book, very good guidance on how to choose a surgeon, how to prepare yourself physically before and after surgery, heavy emphasis on aqua therapy exercises, highly recommend this book if you're considering total hip replacement, the surgeon mentions his web site, on which he offers free second opinions if you send him your xrays.
hip surgery or notNovember 6, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is very informative and can help a prospective hip surgery patient decide about his or her options. It is very helpful. I had hip surgery over 15 years ago; and I am hopeful about the new treatments today. I can say from personal experience, the exercises are critical to walking with ease whether you have surgery or not.
Heal Your HipsOctober 6, 2007 October 6, 2007
My nephew who is an MD/PhD and specializes in joints and their movement recommended this book to me. It is fantastic and I am very glad that I read it before my upcoming total hip replacement. The information is medically solid, clearly written, and easy to follow. The book will be just as valuable after my surgery as before and should help in my recovery. One of the most important, common-sense pieces of information in the book concerns excess weight and the impact on joints. Whether you are having hip problems or you wish to avoid future problems this is an excellent book and I highly recommend it.
Heal Your Hips: How to Prevent Hip Surgery--and What to Do If You Need ItSeptember 6, 2007 This book has made a huge difference in my life. So far, I'm only doing the 10-minute pool routine, and my hip is feeling a lot better already! And it has wonderful information about my specific problem, hip dysplasia. I finally understand exactly what's going on with my hip! This book is wonderful!
