GOT BACK PAIN?

I know exactly how you feel! Here are the steps I followed
to fix my back problems WITHOUT surgery or drugs!

Dealing with back pain? I definitely know what that feels like!

I blew out my back - a herniated disk to be exact - a few years ago - it caused pain in my back, numbness down my legs and into my foot. And led to many days feeling down in the dumps wondering how I would ever get back to normal.

I knew I needed help. But I definitely did NOT want surgery. And I certainly did NOT want to take lots of drugs.

So I did a lot of research, tried everything I could find, and came up with a solution. Sorry, it wasn't some "miracle cure" that got rid of all my back problems overnight. But it did work (here's my story if you want to learn more). And before long I was back to working out, running, and doing normal things in life without any pain or numbness.

Here's a helpful tip for fixing your back pain

If you look around for help to get rid of your back pain, you'll find lots of suggestions - some good, some not so good. I tried most of them after suffering a really painful herniated disk - chiropractic, medication, stretching, core exercises. But none of them really solved the problem. So I started looking for a better answer, and eventually found a back pain program that worked for me. It is called Lose The Back Pain. I was skeptical of buying something like this online, but I really needed help. Fortunately, it really works. Now I'm able to run, walk, lift weights, play with the kids. So if you really want to fix your back pain, give it a try and see how it works for you.


So, How Did I Do It?

Here are the steps I followed:

  • FIRST, I learned all about muscle imbalances.

    Although I knew my body was a little "crooked" I had no idea how much they were the real cause of my back pain. I found a program that addressed these imbalance perfectly. Again, this is no miracle cure that fixes the problems with a pill or a prayer. But if you follow this program, you'll see for yourself how well it works. Back pain relief program.

  • SECOND, I learned how to manage the pain.

    And how to speed up the healing) without drugs. At first I took some over the counter pain relievers when the injury first happened. But I knew right away that I didn't want to take them for long. Here's a natural way to get rid of pain and help with the healing process: Natural pain reliever

  • THIRD, I learned about the benefits of walking.

    Now keep in mind that I was a runner. So the idea of walking seemed way to basic for me. Boy was I wrong!!! Walking is the best way to nourish you disks, get your muscles moving properly, and relieve a lot of stress in the process! At first, I could barely walk across the room. But in a few days I was walking around the yard and before long, walking through the neighborhood. The benefits of walking

  • FOURTH, I stick with the program day after day, month after month.

    I'm an active person so I use the stretches and exercises from Lose The Back Pain nearly every day. And I take a few walks nearly every day, too. When I stray from the plan, I get into trouble. I've had a few setbacks in the years since I started, and EVERY one was due to my not following these steps carefully. Also, here is another simple exercise you can use to strengthen your core and help make your back more stable.

  • FIFTH, the benefits of inversion tables.

    This is a tip I haven't used, but I hear so many good things about inversion tables that I thought I would share it anyway. Why didn't I use an inversion table? Because by the time I learned about their benefits, I was already on the way to recovery. And I didn't want to try something different at that point. But I really wish I had learned about them earlier. If you are interested, here is a high-quality inversion table that doesn't cost too much. Inversion table therapy

  • My timetable for healing
    January 2007 Sneeze & LOTS of pain & numbness
    March 2007 Back to work full-time
    August 2007 Golf with no pain
    February 2008 Skiing with no pain
    July 2008 5k running race with no pain


    So, What Treatments Have You Looked Into?

    I looked into them all. And none was a great option for me. Especially the idea of a shot in my spine - or worse yet, surgery! Yuccckkk! I get all shaky just thinking about those procedures!

    • pain medications
    • chiropractic
    • orthopedics
    • physical therapy
    • epidural shots
    • acupuncture
    • even surgery!

    And I did spend some time working with two terrific chiropractors, who did everything they could to help me avoid surgery (which by the way, is no guarantee of success).

    But even without surgery, and with decent medical insurance, those "$30 bucks a pop" co-pays for chiropractic visits add up quickly! So I needed a program that I could do on my own. And I would recommend this program to anyone!
