Not any more after I've read this book. I now phone my girlfriend instead of sending her 10 text messages. Absolutely love this book." Rachel Richardson " I am full of admiration for Lucy. At the age of 19 bringing out a book about RSI? Surely that should make the news! It is clear after reading the book that Lucy has investigated the subject a lot and now knows what she is talking about. I love the exercises "Louise Green" When I get together with my friends, we all get this book out and do the exercises as we now realise we should no longer deny our pains. I certainly do not want to end up like one of the sufferer's stories in the book therefore I am acting NOW. Thanks for the great advice and eye-opener! "Max Nichols
