Outside the Box, May 19, 2006

"Most western people are generally unfamiliar with the body's energy meridians, eastern acupuncture/acupressure techniques and why they work on the human body. It is also unfamiliar to most of us that not only are the energy systems linked to all organ and tissue systems, the brain (of course),but also hold links to emotional and behavioral systems. In short all of these things are connected through energy."
"After several years as Dr. Durlacher's patient, reading and using this book and the Accu-Power technique, I can attest personally to the effective and calming nature of this process. Yes, it is quite different from western Allopathic medicine, which does not acknowledge these connections and would certainly discourage a patient from believing they have the ability to heal themselves."
"This technique does take practice and an ability to think outside the box. Moreover, one does not have to understand or believe in the technique for it to work. For the months or years of psychotherapy and the tens and hundreds of dollars spent on prescription drugs by people trying to recover from life's long road, $13 is a small price to pay to teach yourself a technique that puts you in charge of your own process."
Freedom From Fear For Me - IT WORKS!!, February 22, 2004
By: An Amazon.com Customer
"It's interesting reading the other reviews of this book. One review says the methods are "silly"; or simply passes it off as "placebo effect". If it's simply placebo effect, then I personally am the luckiest person west of the Mississippi. And I'm batting 1000. I've had 3 sessions of Accu-Power therapy with a local healer and I have overcome 3 major obstacles in my life. The last month has been life changing and has finally put me on a road to real recovery after years of traditional psychotherapy, allopathic treatment and drugs that have nearly killed me."
"I found Durlacher's book to be easy to read, full of wonderful anecdotes and It introduced some of the basics of Traditional Oriental Medicine in a clear, simple manner. To say that it suggests that you simply "touch yourself in certain ways" says to me that that reviewer did not really read and understand the text. Don't go into accu-power thinking that it is a simple solution to all of your problems. A treatment session using these methods is a lot of hard work and concentration and it also physically takes a lot out of your body. I've been recovering physically for a week now from my last session. However, my fear, doubts, and anxiety from a violent past of beatings and rape no longer plagues me."
"No, you can't read a book and be over all of your woes. But the methods in this book DO work. They have pretty much saved my life and give ME back to myself. If that ain't worth $13.27 plus shipping.....I don't know what is.
Thanks Dr. Durlacher :)
Look up placebo definition before talking about it, February 18, 2002

"To those who like to dismiss effects of any therapy to the "placebo effect", they should understand that first that the subject using the therapy must first BELIEVE that they are receiving an effective therapy. If there is a shred of doubt, or if they are aware of the type of therapy given (in the case of a new technique that the subject uses on themselves as something to "try out"), there is NO PLACEBO EFFECT. End of story. You may not like the explanation as to why a new technique has an effect, but to throw the baby out with the bathwater is not only ignorant, but a case of child abuse!"
Not 'too good to be true' after all, December 7, 2002
By: Xan (Colorado USA) - An Amazon.com Customer
"Although this amazingly effective method for eliminating negative patterns in a person's life may sound too good to be true, thousands of now happier, freer people testify that Energy Psychology/Meridian Therapy methods work, and work easily and well, without spending long years delving into one's painful history. This is one of several books published in recent years from which one can learn to use the techniques for oneself for issues such as fears and phobias, depression, guilt and shame, addictions, anger and frustration, PTSD, low self-worth, barriers to accomplishment, and so on."
"There are other books on this healing system that I prefer, in their clear descriptions of the process, but some people may especially like the many case stories and testimonials in this one. See also books by Valerie & Paul Lynch, Peter Lambrou & George Pratt, Garry A. Flint, and Fred Gallo... as well as the materials and wealth of information available from Gary Craig, at www.emofree.com"
"Everyone should know that this revolutionary method is available for healing and changing one's life from the inside out."

"This book provides simple, non-invasive techniques to overcome a wide variety of emotions to bring about contentment, peacefulness, more security, and a general sense of well being. These techniques take only a few minutes and leverage tapping acupuncture circuits to remove the emotion. There are numerous emotions which can easily be addressed such as anger, fear, grief, or low self esteem. I highly recommend this book especially if you want to quickly and easily make immediate and lasting changes in your life."
On my "must read" list of recommendations, April 6, 1997
By: Richard Fulle - An Amazon.com Customer
"In his ground-breaking new work, Dr.James V.Durlacher states that "In this book, you will be able to look into your own body, your body's nervous system, where all things that have happened to you from the time of conception are recorded." Therefore, you can determine any phobias, fears, anxieties and addictions (among many other things) and with his procedures, treat and even abolish these things without drugs or long, drawn out counseling sessions.
This reviewer firmly believes in the importance of seeking new methods to help ourselves find the road to betterment. That is why " Freedom From Fear Forever" is on my "must-read" list of recommendations!
