Recensione:

"Barefoot Doctor is the modern day equivalent of a nomadic healer (but he's also got) enough charm and humour to make palatable at least some of the pseudospiritual psychobabble his vocation involves" DAILY TELEGRAPH

"A charismatic figure with a calming way (of helping his charges) ... one to catch." TIME OUT

"(After one hour of healing), the sense of lifted spirits and serenity is overwhelming" VOGUE
