What if your body already has all the healing tools it needs—and you just need to learn how to activate them?

In this groundbreaking book, Victoria Maizes, MD, a pioneer of integrative medicine, draws on forty years of experience and cutting-edge research to reveal the remarkable power of what she calls the “rapid recovery reflex”—your body’s built-in ability to restore balance and heal from illness, injury, and stress.

-Surprising reasons why you should sometimes let your body’s natural inflammatory response do its healing work.
-A personalized Recovery Toolkit with essential supplements, practices, and remedies for different conditions.
