Every human being is able to defend him- or herself.

Whether man or woman, young or old, athletic or not,

there are ways for everyone to react and defend

themselves in a threatening or violent situation. Krav Maga,

which literally means 'contact combat', is a martial art

developed originally for the Israeli army. Comprising the

essence of various martial arts, its aim is to be able to react

purposefully and effectively to any kind of physical threat.

This is not solely about martial arts, but about learning how

to execute countermeasures. Through its many illustrated

exercises, this book imparts the basic techniques of Krav

Maga, strengthens women's self-confidence, and trains the

eye for recognising threatening situations. In addition, Krav

Maga is an extremely effective fitness program.

• Self-defence for women with Krav Maga: efficient and

modern

• Detailed step-by-step instructions, clearly illustrated

• How to protect oneself in every threatening situation

Gabriele Feld is the highest level Krav Maga instructor in the

German-speaking world. She is the proprietor of the Krav Maga

School in Augsburg, teaching according to the standards of IKMF,

the largest Krav Maga organisation in the world. She is, among

many other things, a certified Krav Maga instructor for 'Women

Back pain is the number-one widespread disorder of the

civilised world. Everyone suffers from it at least once during

their lifetime – but many have back pain every day.

Conventional medicine is invariably at a loss about what to

do and so prescribes excessive or unnecessary therapies,

medications, and surgeries. Such treatments are generally

not only ineffective but also dangerous. The pain returns

and becomes chronic, and there is a risk of drug

dependence. In addition, 95 percent of all back surgeries

result in unintentional miscues.

With their pioneering method, the pain specialists and

bestselling authors Dr. Petra Bracht and Roland Liebscher-

Bracht put their finger right on the futility of conventional

medicine. The best news is that you, the sufferer, can help

yourself heal. Their therapy relieves back pain surprisingly

fast while avoiding spinal damage. For each condition, the

most effective exercises with variations are presented.
