Overcome Neck & Back Pain
Kit Laughlin
the book that started a revolution in treating neck, middle and lower back problemsand a method that explicitly recognises the necessity of the patient being actively involved in the treatment. The book has been glowingly reviewed in all the peak medical journals as well as massage, shiatsu, chiropractic and complementary medical journals.
The book was featured in three separate stories on A Current Affair, and this very favourable exposure led to the creation of the national Overcome neck & back pain. The Overcome neck & back pain system is used successfully by many practitioners around the country, including doctors, chiropractors and osteopaths, massage and other body work therapists: you will see one of our Certificates of Attendance on the wall of their clinics if they have done one of our intensive workshops.
The book Overcome neck & back pain (and associated videos) presents a comprehensive self-help exercise-based approach to treating these problems. Chapter 1, Self-diagnosis, tells you how to determine whether there is a structural cause of your problem and corrections for its treatment. Following is a comprehensive set of testing exercises to help you determine whether muscular imbalance is one of the causes of the problem. The explanation of the testing procedure is detailed but assumes that the reader has no prior knowledge of the area: it is written for you. Another way to find the exercises you need is to use the Where am I sore? illustrations at the end of the chapter.
Chapter 2 presents all the exercises needed to correct what you've found. Once your problem has resolved, chapter 3 presents stronger stretching exercises; the final section presents efficient strengthening exercises, to help prevent a recurrence of the problem. Chapter 4 investigates the causes of neck and back problems and all the latest relevant statistics and essential information from the leading medical and other journals will be found there, too.
Sciatica is considered closely, and the best, completely-new exercises to treat piriformis syndrome (a common cause) are presented. Similarly Thoracic Outlet Compression Syndrome: if this is your problem (or RSI or Occupational Overuse syndrome) you will find the most effective scalene and other neck stretching exercises there, too.
Chapter 5 presents the relaxation script, Kit's approach to acquiring this elusive physical and emotional state. You can order a version of this script already recordedone side of the tape features the script plus Pacific Ocean background sound; the other side features the ocean sounds alone.
