"Chronic pain is a common medical problem shared by roughly 100 million Americans-close to one third of the U.S. population. In the past few decades there has been an alarming trend of using prescription opioids to treat chronic pain. But these opioids-the main prescribed analgesic-come with hidden costs, and this book reveals the ramifications of their use and provides a low or no-risk alternative. Armed with the right information, you can make informed decisions about your pain care. By appreciating the risks and limitations of prescription opioids, and by learning to reduce your own pain and suffering, you will gain control over your health and well-being. Each copy includes Beth Darnall's new binaural relaxation CD, Enhanced Pain Management"--From publisher.

"For sufferers of chronic pain, the author provides the best chronic pain treatment options that work over time and carry the least risk. This book gives the information and tools needed to meet this challenge--to take responsibility for and proactively manage your own pain on your own terms for the rest of your life"--From publisher.
