5 Tips For Getting Rid Of Back Pain, Sciatica, Etc



Millions of people suffer from back pain unnecessarily when there is actually a very simple solution, according to Jesse Cannone, certified personal trainer and back pain specialist. “Unfortunately, many people are led to believe that back pain is normal and we're all supposed to experience it... well, thankfully, that’s not the case. Eliminating back pain is not nearly as difficult as most people think or are led to believe... it can actually be easy!” says Cannone.

Here’s the simple system that MUST be followed if you are looking for real, long-term, lasting relief:

1. Identify the cause – nearly all of the treatments people receive for back pain only focus on the symptoms and the health care professionals zoom in on only the problem area. The real key in eliminating back pain is to find out exactly what’s causing the problem... and most of the time it’s not even the back!

2. Address both the cause and the symptom – the best approach is a combination of treating the symptoms for pain relief while also addressing the underlying cause.

3. Be aware – many people suffering from back pain are not in tune with their bodies and during their treatment they do not realize what is working and what is not. In order to achieve long-term relief you have to understand how your body works, what’s causing the problem, and what changes have to be made to correct it.

4. Take Consistent Focused Action - achieving success in anything requires consistency and focused action. Most people with back pain won't make the time to work on their problem each day... instead they take pain killers which mask the pain and allow them to cause more damage while they continue with their life.

5. Don't do what doesn't work - we already know that most traditional treatments for back pain don't work.... why waste your time, energy, and money? The real key to eliminating back pain is to identify the true cause of the pain and then address it with a combination of treatments to treat both the cause and symptoms. Over 80% of all back pain is caused by muscle imbalances... NOT a lack of pain killers or surgery! Find out what's going on in your body and take action.

In his new book, "The 7-Day Back Pain Cure" Jesse Cannone, co-founder of The Healthy Back Institute, expands on these tips and more to present a simple, easy-to-follow system for rapid pain relief... A method you tailor to YOUR needs, whether your condition is lower back pain, sciatica, herniated disc, neck pain or any other. 

And the best part is, he's GIVING IT AWAY FREE! And for every order, he'll make a donation to a charity where you get to choose which.

Thousands have already grabbed their own copies and had it work for them; everyone from stay-at-home moms to 62 year-olds to soccer players. Click here and go check it out for yourself while it's still ridiculously FREE.

Back Pain? Neck Pain? Sciatica? Read This FREE Book

If you suffer from any type of back, neck or sciatic pain,
then you need to go grab a copy of my good friend, Jesse
Cannone's new book, "The 7-Day Back Pain Cure" ASAP...

Right now he is actually giving it away... you can also
buy it on Amazon, but if you grab one of the free copies
from his website he is going to donate $2 to St. Jude's
Children's Hospital or Habitat for Humanity - you even
get to choose the charity!


Now, I've known Jesse for a long time and he is known as
the "back pain relief guy" because he's helped so many
people to finally get rid of their pain... and over the
years, I personally have learned a lot from him...

But his new book is incredible... in it he does what no
one else in the medical community does, and that is put
together all of the pieces... See, most people when they
have back pain usually get treatments that only mask the
pain... and even then, the treatments only address the
physical symptoms...

In this book he shows you:

- Why traditional treatments always FAIL to deliver
lasting relief
- The 7 mistakes that most people make that keep them in
pain
- How to identify the real, underlying causes of your pain
- Which treatments work, which ones don't and how to know
which is right for you

So if you have ever suffered from back pain or sciatica,
or are currently dealing with it, I highly recommend you grab a copy of his book now - and you can't beat the price (FREE)...

But don't wait or 'think about it" as he can’t possibly
keep *giving away* this amazing book forever, and there are literally millions of people with back pain who are likely to hear about this.

You owe it to yourself to figure out the right way to CURE
the pain you don’t have to be living with anymore.
With this book, you can.

Beat Gravity - Heal Your Body: The Inversion Table

If you're looking for a non-invasive way to ease back or neck pain, I think you'll be impressed with the results you get with Inversion Table therapy.

But, keep in mind, its benefits go way beyond relieving pain. It's also ideal for relieving stress, boosting circulation, relaxing tight muscles, and providing rejuvenation for the entire body.

And if you visit a Chiropractor's office with any regularity, you'll especially want to read this!

Did you know that after a normal day's activities, you can lose up to three-quarters of an inch in height? That's the force of gravity working along with muscle imbalances, compressing the vertebrae of the spine together.

Let's take a closer look at what happens when gravity compresses the spine.

Your nerve system runs through your spine and the individual discs allow the nerves to pass through each vertebral joint. The discs act as shock absorbers and allow the spine to flex.

When gravity compresses the spine, fluid squeezes out of the discs into the surrounding tissues. The delicate nerve roots passing through the vertebrae can become pinched, causing pain.

Uneven pressure on the individual discs can lead to bulging and herniation, serious conditions that can cause damage to the spine along with chronic pain.


Inversion Therapy is not new. In fact, it's been safely and successfully used for over 2000 years to treat back pain.

An Inversion Table is a comfortable, sturdy *table* that gently swings backwards to allow you to invert yourself to varying degrees. Inverting yourself to as little as 25 degrees for just a few minutes, you begin to enjoy the many benefits of Inversion Therapy.

Almost immediately after tilting the table back, you feel a rush of relaxation through your entire body. Gravity now works in your favor to gently stretch the spine, allowing compressed vertebrae to re-open. Fluid flows back into the discs. Nerve roots are freed, easing pain. Even a herniated disc can pop back into place.

And here's something else really important. Within just seconds of inverting, your muscles and ligaments begin to relax. Stress and tension ease away. A surge in lymphatic flow flushes trapped waste products from muscle tissue. The result is less stiffness and pain.

Imagine how relaxed you'll feel after a stressful day at work, a high impact workout, or even enjoying your favorite activities.

What are some other benefits of Inversion Therapy?

Along with decompression of the spine and relaxation of the muscles, here are other benefits of Inversion Therapy:

-     Boosts mental sharpness and brain function by increasing the flow of fresh, oxygenated blood to your brain and upper body.

-     Clears blood from your feet, legs, and lower body, and helps to drain varicose veins...

-     Stimulates the flow of the lymph system, helping to clear toxins from the body...

-     Tones and lifts inner organs, improving blood flow and supporting good digestion and waste elimination...

-     Eases pressure on weight-bearing joints and helps maintain flexibility of your joints and spine...

The Inversion Therapy Table from The Healthy Back Institute is the best you'll find. Extremely sturdy and well-built, this table comes with a 5-year warranty - unheard of in the industry. Includes instruction manual and DVD.

If you truly want to put an end to whatever form of back pain or nerve pain you've been battling with for so long, then I highly recommend that you check out the Inversion Therapy Table, FREE for 30 Days, right here.


Peace and Victory Over Pain,
Jevaughn Brown

“Lost Cause” Back-Pain Sufferer Finds Relief After 30 Years of Pain

“Lost Cause” Back-Pain Sufferer Finds Relief After 30 Years of Pain From a Surprising Home-Based Treatment

Carole Gardner was officially a "lost-cause" - she suffered for
over 30-years with back-pain. You name the condition - sciatica, herniated disc, slipped vertebrae, spinal stenosis, an "s" curved spine (scoliosis) - she had it all.

She endured constant pain throughout her hip, leg, butt and lower back. Over the years she'd been put in braces and casts that only made things worse. Doctors, surgeons, chiropractors, physical therapists and all kinds of experts tried and failed to help her.

Now, after three decades of pain, she's virtually pain-free,
on many days she's totally pain-free. And she did it without
surgery, without costly visits to specialists of any kind, 
and without drugs, and succeeded right in the comfort of her
own home.

She reports, "My abilities defy my MRI films!" What's the
"miraculous" secret to her recovery? A home-based, do-it-yourself self-treatment system for back-pain showing you how to fix the hidden causes of back-pain using Muscle Balance Therapy.

You were probably never told about muscle-imbalances - when one set of muscles is stronger or tighter than the opposing muscle groups, and how they lead to herniated discs, sciatica, upper and lower back pain and magnify pain from other conditions.

If you suffer from back-pain - if you've tried everything and
nothing else has worked, then I urge you to grab a copy of
this FREE REPORT on how Muscle Balance Therapy can deliver seemingly miraculous results like Carole's. 
Visit here now to get yours...

Hip-Dysfunctions That Are Causing Your Back Pain

Which of these FOUR major Hip-Dysfunctions is causing your Back-Pain?

Did you know your back-pain could be caused by the muscles
in your thighs? Or in your hips, sides and legs? 

You see, if your thigh, hip, leg or other muscles are out
of balance your pelvis and spine get yanked right out of
their natural, healthy position.

These hip-dysfunctions are actually the hidden culprit in
most cases of back related pain. And they get worse over
time because they force your back-muscles to start working
"against the grain", weakening them over-time.

Worse, it's almost impossible to get lasting pain relief
if you never fix the dysfunction because everything else,
even herniated and bulging discs, sciatic and other back
conditions – they’re all symptoms of the underlying imbalance.

There are really only about FOUR major hip-dysfunctions
that you might have:

-    A forward-tipped pelvis...
-    A backward-tipped pelvis...
-    A high right, or left pelvis...
-    A forward tipped head and neck...

Once you identify which of these is causing your pain,
it's simply a matter of stretching and strengthening the
right muscles to fix the dysfunction.

The good news is you can get a FREE COPY of the Healthy
Back Institute's Back Pain Relief Guides - The only
Self-Diagnosis and Self-Treatment system for
hip-dysfunctions. Visit this link to find out how...

7 Steps to Eliminating Neck Pain

Courtesy of Dr. Robert Duvall

What is it?

What do we do on a daily basis? We wake up, sit down, have a cup of coffee and read the newspaper. We sit in our car and drive to work. We arrive at work and sit down to work. For the next several hours we place and answer phone calls, enter data, research information and communicate with the computer. After the long day, we get back in our car and drive home. We get home, sit down and have dinner, watch the television, and go to bed. Eight hours later, press repeat. The vicious cycle begins again! Fast forward ten years later;
  • shoulder pain,
  • neck pain,
  • headaches,
  • numbness & tingling in the hands,
  • weakness in the arms & hands,
  • slumped posture,
  • rounded shoulders,
  • forward head


How we look today is the result of years of... Are these signs and symptoms that you are experiencing. But why does this occur? How did this happen to me? How can I fix the problem? The basic premise here is that we become accustomed to our environment. Not too mention gravity is working against us.
Our body as a whole will adapt to the positions we place them in on a daily basis. The muscles in the front of our body become tight and the muscles of our upper back (around our shoulder blades) become stretched out and weak. This in turn weakens our neck muscles, and our head now drops forward.

The front neck muscles become weak and stretched out, and the back neck muscles become very tight. Remember our head attaches to our neck, and our neck attaches to our upper back and shoulders. There is constant communication among all of the parts and each part relies on the neighbor above and below it.

 

Where are your muscles?

Muscles function properly when they are in an optimal position. Meaning muscles do not work well when they are either stretched out or very tight. When this occurs, the muscles will pull on the bones abnormally and place added stress on the discs and joints in our neck, back, and shoulders. If this occurs for a long period of time, our joints become inflamed and the discs may bulge.

When the discs bulge in our spine, they now have tendency to irritate the nerves. The nerves that supply our shoulders, arms, and hands come from our neck. So, when we experience pain and discomfort in the shoulders, arms and/or hands, the problem may be in our neck or upper back area. The great news here is that simple changes to your daily routine will dramatically influence the aforementioned issues and hopefully prevent them from occurring in the first place!

 

The Upper Back, Neck and Shoulders

The upper back, neck and shoulders as a whole is a very complex group of joint muscle and the motions that those joints go through are even more complex. Here is what people do not understand about way the neck and shoulders work and how to get relief from any ache or pain.

The curvature of the lower spine plays a vital roll in the position and function of the upper spine, so in order to get the upper back neck and shoulder to feel right and function properly you will need to address the entire spine top to bottom.

I know that sounds like a lot of work but knowing what is wrong and how to address the problem correctly is more than half the battle.

 

What to do about it

X-rays and MRIs can tell you what condition you have, but not why you have the condition. They cannot they tell you the strength or the flexibility of a muscle. They cannot tell you why your pelvis, spine neck and shoulders are the way they are, and they certainly cannot tell you how your muscles are out of balance.

The only way to identify your imbalances is to go through a physical assessment designed to look specifically for muscle imbalances and associated postural dysfunctions. Once you know your postural dysfunctions, it is very easy to work backwards, because each dysfunction has a certain set of imbalances - almost like a syndrome. That is, it repeats itself consistently and predictably at any age, regardless of gender and regardless of activity level.

The only way to correct your imbalances is with very targeted corrective stretches and exercises tailored to you and your condition. The good news is that even in the worst cases; our bodies are never that far out of alignment. But if you are in pain, those imbalances need to be addressed.

 

What not to do about it

I advise everyone not to start any exercise program without first knowing your imbalances. Here's why: If you start exercising the wrong muscles, you could strengthen a muscle group that is already too strong and worsen the imbalance. You could even stretch a muscle that does not need to be stretched and make your condition worse.

You may think you're doing yourself a favor by going to the gym and doing yoga or Pilates. You may also think that doing a balanced workout is going to keep you healthy. But that is not the case when your muscles are already out of balance.

Let's not forget about non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Yes, you may need something to ease the pain but remember that drugs do nothing to help you treat the root cause of your condition not to mention they do nothing to help your body heal its self.
Immediate steps to take if you want relief or want to prevent your profession from killing you
  • Stop working out until you know where your imbalances are. Doing a balanced workout is going to prolong your recovery and keep you in pain.
  • Stop doing the sport or any physical activity that you enjoy doing - running, swimming, golfing, yoga, or Pilates until your know where your imbalances are.
  • Seek professional help from someone who is trained in muscle imbalances and postural dysfunctions - and, no, not all health care professionals know about this approach.
  • Address your neck pain from many different perspectives because everyone is different and not all outcomes are going to be the same; look for an approach that addresses your condition from a physical, mental, and nutritional perspective.
  • Look for natural alternatives to your NSAIDs.
  • Keep an open mind about techniques you may not have heard of before, such as Muscle Balancing Therapy™
  • Do your homework. Learn about what works and what does not. When is spinal decompression appropriate for the neck? When will spinal manipulations give you the biggest benefit?

 

Getting started

Truth is, your body can perform the grinding work of you job and everyday stress of your life but and you do not have to live and work in constant pain. But you cannot expect to get results if you do not take one, some or all of the corrective steps I have outlined.

If you have neck pain and have been through the ringer, I know what you're going to say, "I've tried everything… But will it work for me?...My case is different... I don't have the time... How can something so simple address such a complex issue?"

It's simple… restoring balance to your body is a universally excepted principle to achieving optimal health. That is what we teach our clients and that is what we show our clients.

The muscle balancing therapy™ is not a workout that you have to do every day but a process of improving the rest of your life. You don't need to set time aside to bring your body back to balance but rather using moments in time to make corrections and when you know what to do it is simple and fast...

The Pros and Cons of Common Pain Relievers

When it comes to pain relief, most people turn first to their medicine cabinet. But most people also have more than one pain reliever to choose from. There are so many options—Advil, Tylenol, Excedrin, good old aspirin and all sorts of generic and prescription alternatives.

The question is: which bottle should you reach for when your back pain flares up? That's not always an easy question to answer. As with all medicines, every type of pain reliever has benefits and risks. Plus, specific types of pain may respond better to one kind of medication than to another kind. And everyone reacts differently to different meds. What takes away your pain might not work for someone else.

So, how do you choose? First, you can review the pros and cons of each.

Over-The-Counter Pain Medicines

Over-the-counter (OTC) medications are good for many types of pain. There are basically two types of OTC medicines:

1. Acetaminophen (common brand: Tylenol).

PROS: Acetaminophen is a non-aspirin pain reliever, so it may be easier on your stomach than aspirin. It is also safer for children. It can be used to lower a fever and soothe headaches and other common aches and pains, including back pain.

CONS: Acetaminophen does not reduce swelling (inflammation). It can be harmful to the liver if you take more than the recommended dose.....

Are The Foods You Eat Keeping You In Pain?

Anyone looking to achieve optimal health has to consider nutrition as the single most important ingredient for success.
In a perfect world, all of our nutrition should come from the
food we eat. Supplementation should not even be an issue.

In the real world, however, most of the foods we eat are
riddled with fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, and hormones
- not to mention that they are often hydrated with polluted
water. In addition, an ever-growing percentage of our food
comes from other countries, which don't always have the best
inspection track record.

And if all that weren't bad enough, the natural nutrient value
of the soil that produces these foods has also been diminishing
over the years, a trend that will only continue. This is why
it's necessary for us to take a hard look at our diets and make
a decision about whether we may need supplements.

As you can see, proper nutrition nowadays is not that easy; it
does take some time to educate yourself. By proper nutrition,
I mean eating clean and safe foods that have the nutrients your
body requires to get and stay healthy. Recipe for relief

Your two main purposes for eating a healthy diet and taking
supplements are to give your body what it needs to heal itself
and to minimize the level of inflammation that is in your body.
The inflammation is what is causing your pain.

Drugs that fight pain do little, if anything, to help the body
heal itself. In fact, some of these drugs can have severe
negative side effects, so please consider eating right as an
alternative.

If you are suffering from any type of back, neck or sciatic pain, there is hope for relief.

Sciatic Stretches: The Ugly Truth About Back Pain (Free Audio Program!)

Back Pain? Sciatica? Neck Pain?


The Ugly Truth About Back Pain

Here’s a little-known fact. The real cause of the pain is almost always overlooked.

Most doctors only treat the symptoms. They use “band-aid” treatments like:

• Cortisone shots

• Dangerous drugs

• Physical therapy

• Surgery

• Chiropractic manipulation

These may work. When they do, it’s almost never long-term.

It’s not until you treat the “hidden” underlying causes that you get lasting pain relief.

Our friends at the Healthy Back Institute have agreed to offer our readers and customers a FREE copy of their breakthrough audio program “The Complete Healing Formula For Back Pain”.

This 2-CD audio program sells on their website every day for $79 and is hands down the best resource we have ever come across for beating back pain.

Medical doctors and Chiropractors are finally catching on and using their method as a treatment with their back pain patients. The results are nothing short of impressive.

Jerry Talisman of Carlsbad California claims: "50 Years of Chronic Back Pain and Sciatica Gone in Just Days!" And tens of thousands of others are reporting similar success using this "formula"...

If you suffer from any kind of back, neck or sciatic pain, I highly suggest you click here to request your FREE copy of this audio right away!

Sciatic Stretches: Exercises To Avoid To Reduce Pain

“What exercises should you avoid if you have back pain?

The short answer is: all of them until you identify what physical dysfunctions are contributing to your pain. Why? Because unless you understand which dysfunctions are contributing to or causing your back pain any exercises you do
can make the problem worse.

In the free guide found here you'll find instructions going over the basic assessment you'll need to do (it's easy) to identify some of the underlying “hidden” causes of your back
pain.

Obviously, exercising is a critical part of living a healthy life. But if you're in a lot of pain you need to slow down or even stop exercising for a while as you identify the underlying contributing causes to your pain.

Basically, the first rule of dealing with back-pain is the same as the first rule of medicine: 


“Do No Harm.”

The muscle imbalances and dysfunctions contributing heavily to the pain your body is experiencing developed over the years based on your activities … which muscles you naturally favor when you move … what sports you played over the
years … what injuries you sustained in the past … how you sit …. where you feel pain in your body and more.

Until you identify exactly which muscle imbalances you have you can't tell which activities you're doing are contributing the most to your pain or which activities could be helping reduce your pain.

Exercising improperly for your particular body and dysfunction could very easily make you hurt more. That's one reason we offer the Lose the Back Pain system on a 100% RISK FREE basis – so you can do a FULL assessment to correctly identify your own dysfunctions and get a personalized treatment plan for fixing them...

To learn more about choosing the personalized exercises, sciatic stretches and more that you'll need to heal YOUR particular case of sciatica
, back pain, etc, go now to this Pain Relief Advisory.

Sciatic Stretches: What Is The Back Joy Core?



So, what is the Back Joy Core?

The company that created it calls it a "back orthotic" but really it's a type of seat cushion that when you sit on it, it instantly improves your posture and takes pressure of the spine.

Unlike other devices that you stick behind your back and only give you temporary support, the Back Joy changes the way you sit. It actually forces you to sit up straight which will actually strengthen your core muscles and that's why they call it the Back Joy "Core". So not only can it help improve your posture, but the improved strength you'll have in your core will help prevent future flare-ups...

Learn more about this revolutionary pain-relief device (and even try it for 30 Days *Risk-Free* if you're convinced it's right for you) at the Back Joy page.
