Customer Reviews:
Great book with very helpful informationOctober 5, 2008 Clifford R. Waeschle(Hawaii) This is a phenomenal book!!!. The best part of the book are chapters 2 & 3 where there are the yoga type exercises and illustrations of these exercises that you can do anywhere, anytime and these really help combat everyday back pain and they also help by stretching your body. On page 122, he talks about reducing stress and this is also a great chapter. Page 77 is about nutrition and that was really interesting especially the piece about orange juice.
Back Pain Is Not NormalJuly 14, 2008 JLH(Los Angeles, CA USA) Many people simply choose to live with back pain. They think having back pain is normal - but it is not. This book really hit home in getting that message across. Being able to determine what type of pain I was having, where it was coming from and what type of doctor would be the best for me based on the self-diagnosis portion was so enlightening. I sought the care I needed and am now pain free. The exercise section was also helpful in teaching me what I need to do to stay pain free. Chances are everyone you know will need this book at one point in their lives - make sure you tell them about it! An easy and informative read.
