About this title

Synopsis

A leading researcher in pain treatment presents a breakthrough drug-free system for dealing with chronic pain, showing in careful steps how sufferers can master techniques involving exercise, nutrition, and coping mechanisms that master pain. 35,000 first printing.

Reviews

Marcus, medical director of the New York Pain Treatment Program at Lenox Hill Hospital, and medical writer Arbeiter present the hospital's problem-oriented and drug-free approach to pain. Patient histories are used to illustrate how body awareness, exercise, and coping and relaxation techniques can be used to control and reduce the devastating effects of chronic pain. Individual analog charts and scales allow patients to assess the severity of their pain and to chart their progress to a life no longer dominated by pain. The benefits and complications of pain medications--prescription and over-the-counter--are also discussed. In the end, this book is not as comprehensive as Jane Cowles's Pain Relief ( LJ 11/1/93) but is more like Richard Reilly's Living with Pain ( LJ 5/1/93), which describes a specific program. For popular health collections.
