The three simple low-cost practices that comprise the foundation of health are easily done at home and cost very little to do. This practical guidebook with its very effective protocol is helpful for helping almost any kind of health problem, whether or not there is a diagnosis or health insurance. Discover the single most important thing to do to improve your health; how to effectively plan your healing; what causes symptoms to appear, disappear, and reappear; why the best approach to health usually includes your participation along with professional help; what causes mental-emotional illness and how to resolve it; and ways to take charge of your health. A special section guides health care practitioners to empower patients and clients to reverse their chronic symptoms when nothing else works.
"Dr Stoll and Jan DeCourtney really empower you to take control of your own health through his 3 pronged approach (what they call the "3 legged stool"). I had never been exposed before to the whole foods concept - I guess I was living under a rock all these years. I like having the rationale behind things explained, like WHY skilled relaxation is important (we heal 24X faster than when sleeping) or WHY we should exercise 20 min 3X week (so we get at least 6 minutes past our "Second Wind") I found this book to be a compelling read and gave it to all my relatives as gifts." -- A. Taylor

My website, my holistic massage therapy practice in Boulder, Colorado, and my book, Recapture Your Health, are all designed to assist you in achieving dynamic health and wellness through combining two basic approaches to healing: professionally assisted therapies and self-care.
Please explore my website and use the information to begin or continue enhancing your own wellness. You see, even though health care practitioners and healers can help you, the healer that has more power than anyone else to dramatically improve your health is you. As you read through this website, you will learn that your own choices and lifestyle are the biggest contributors to your overall health. There is much you can do to help yourself, and much of it is free or low cost. My goal is to empower you to find resources, education, and tools to overcome any health challenge you face, or to maintain the good health you already have.
As a Massage Therapist and Holistic Practitioner in Boulder, Colorado, part of the care I give includes relaxation massage therapy for stress relief and focused (deep tissue) massage to help with muscular pain or disorders. I also specialize in working with chronic illnesses of many kinds. So many chronic conditions have as their root cause physical and mental tension, as well as daily stress. Massage therapy can help alleviate a wide range of health conditions because of its power to reduce stress. A wellness consultation can be very beneficial in helping you understand that you may have many options for health care (besides or instead of conventional drugs and surgery). I wish that everyone could experience vibrant wellness in all aspects of life - body, mind, emotions, and spirit - and my goal is to assist you to reach the balance and happiness that comes with being in good health.
Please note that the book I have written with my holistic colleague, Walt Stoll, MD, entitled Recapture Your Health, contains some of the best, clearest, and most effective self-help health information that we have encountered in our decades of clinical practice and personal exploration. If you have chronic symptoms of any kind, I encourage you to read it when it becomes available. You may be surprised to learn that the remedy for many common conditions may be easily within your reach without great expense or invasive treatments. We expect our book to be an important resource for both patients and physicians. Here is one endorsement for our book:
"For the millions who are suffering from chronic and poorly understood symptoms, this book is the answer." -- Christiane Northrup, MD, Author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom (Bantam, 1998), The Wisdom of Menopause (Bantam, 2001), and Mother-Daughter Wisdom (Bantam, 2005)
My website is a constant work-in-progress, so I invite you to visit often to see new changes and additions. (Last updated 3/7/07)
Wishing you health and happiness,
Jan DeCourtney, CMT
