Summary:
"In The
Pain
Cure
Rx
, Dr. Mitchell
Yass
presents the
Yass
Method
, an alternative model of treatment that can resolve
pain
quickly and effectively without surgery or medication. While working with more than 14,000 patients, Dr.
Yass
realized that many cases of
chronic
pain
are the result of misdiagnosis and thus improper treatment. In the medical community today, most
chronic
pain
is attributed to a structural problem, such as a herniated disc, stenosis, a meniscal tear, or arthritis. But Dr.
Yass
has found that in about 90 percent of these cases, the cause is actually a muscular weakness or imbalance--a condition that's easy to treat on your own with very little equipment. The
Yass
Method
focuses on getting the proper diagnosis--finding the true source of the pain--and then using simple exercises to find lifelong relief. In this book, Dr.
Yass
looks at the most common areas where people experience pain--the neck, low back, mid-back, gluteal region, knee, shoulder, and hip--and lays out simple tests that examine things like range of motion, flexibility, walking patterns, and posture that readers can do in the comfort of their own homes. He teaches them how to use this information, along with an analysis of their symptoms, to identify if their
pain
is in fact muscular rather than structural. If it is structural, they can choose surgery, knowing that the outcome will likely be good. But if the
pain
is muscular, they can use the easy, step-by-step exercises and routines in the book to get the
pain
resolution they're searching for."--From publisher.
