This book is for you if:
You have been struggling with symptoms that modern Western medicine seems unable to explain
You would like to understand the science behind those symptoms
You would like to explore the seeming paradox that a healthy body can produce real and debilitating conditions
You would like to understand some simple strategies you can use to regain health Modern medicine is incredible and can help or cure many diseases, but there is a range of conditions which are often left unexplained and unsolved. These illnesses are not all in the mind. They are very real and can be chronic, debilitating and extremely distressing. If you fall into the category of people with a diagnosis of a functional illness (such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS or ME) or irritable bowel syndrome) and are looking for answers, this book will clearly explain what has been happening and why. Better still, it also offers a toolbox of techniques, and explains how you can employ them to take back control and restore your system to a healthy "state". We are a team of doctors, coaches and therapists with a passionate interest in discovering the most effective ways for people like you to feel well again. Two of us have suffered in the past from severe and protracted ME (chronic fatigue syndrome) from which we have fully recovered.
