I have known Dr. Phyllis Books for at least 2 decades and during that time she has shown a deeply inquisitive and integrative mind. She has been able to see through the fog of complex conditions and patient presentations by utilizing her vast chiropractic and cranial clinical experience to develop new low risk and effective
Dr. Books doesn’t think outside the envelope or outside the box. She thinks outside the auditorium. She is gifted with amazing insight and touch. She has a spirit that touches her patients and communicates her sincere caring. I can’t recommend her and her book enough.
