Why on earth would anyone title their book "Stick it In Your Ear"
anyway? There are three reasons why: Often times when people are
confronted about their hearing problem, they will push back, and
maybe even tell you to 'stick in your ear'. The irony is that if
they would stick it in their ear, that is a precision amplifier
(hearing aid), they could improve their life, and the lives of
those who communicate with them. The third reason is revealed at
the end of the book.

NEW JOINTS is a must-read for anyone considering joint replacement.
Though the illustrated exercises focus on knees and hips, the
information directly relates to preparing for any orthopedic
surgery. Written in a non-technical, approachable format, this
manual addresses subjects that are applicable not only to those
considering surgery, but to anyone who wants to learn how to better
move in their own body. Chapters include: how to personalize
exercises; the importance of setting goals and how to do so;
understanding pain; balance and proprioception; self image;
developing support systems; websites and books to use as additional
tools. NEW JOINTS is also an excellent tool for helping readers
learn how to communicate their own specific orthopedic issues and
needs to doctors and physical therapists. Ms. Wolfe has worked with
both groups and individuals as a fitness trainer, as a massage
therapist, and has worked with many individuals before and after
orthopedic surgeries. Both she and her husband have been through
their own injuries and orthopedic surgeries, and NEW JOINTS is
informed by her experiences in maintaining their functioning.
