What was Dr. Kersten's secret?
You will have to wait for the book Pain's Healing Secret to be published this September 29, 2001. Then you can read about how Dr. Felix Kersten could gradually control the head of the Gestapo, Heinrich Himmler?
Kersten's authorized biography entitled, The Man with the Miraculous Hands, written by Joseph Kessel, tells how this good doctor of massage, utterly opposed to Nazism and all it stood for, gained influence over the second most powerful leader of the Nazi party and saved thousands of lives.
The 1962 Dell Books paperback edition is out of print, but the book Pain's Healing Secret will examine in detail Dr. Kersten's method of pain relief.

"So definitive that William Shirer’s The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich depends very largely upon it. ..." — Oakland Tribune
Hugh R. Trevor-Roper, a respected Oxford professor of history and a noted authority on German affairs during World War II, wrote in the preface of Kersten’s Memoirs "... there is no man whose story has been subjected to such minute investigation. It has been weighed by scholars, jurists, and even by political opponents, and has triumphed over all these tests."
Himmler was reported to have said to his subordinate, Walter Schellenberg, "With every one of his massages, Dr. Kersten deprives me of a life."
This startling statement came out at the time of the Nürnberg trials. Schellenberg, the head of the Third Reich’s Intelligence Agency, on trial for war crimes and trying to gain leniency, claimed he had influenced Himmler to spare the lives of seven Swedish businessmen. However, separate investigations revealed that Dr. Felix Kersten, Himmler’s private doctor, had saved the lives of these businessmen in addition to thousands of Jews marked for execution, while he himself was virtually a captive.
