Too often, people default to medications or surgery, even though these approaches can be unnecessary, ineffective, or even harmful. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eChristine Goertz, PhD, leading researcher in low back pain at Duke University, was looking for a book to recommend to patients and clinicians but couldn't find one that encompassed all the most up-to-date research and treatments. So, she decided to write the book herself. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBlending clinical expertise, patient examples, and the in-depth research, \u003ci\u003eTake Your Back Back\u003c\/i\u003e empowers you to take control of your healing journey. Dr. Goertz explains the physical and psychosocial causes of back pain, debunking common myths, and clarifying pain mechanisms. She explores a wide range of treatment options that start with a holistic, self-care and whole-care approach (including acupuncture, massage, yoga, exercise, spinal manipulation, and cognitive behavioral therapy) before medications and medical procedures. Throughout, she provides questionnaires, charts, and photographs of easy-to-implement exercises in a step-by-step program to help you find what works best for you. She also takes you through finding the right clinician, advocating for yourself, and building a personalized action plan in this \"required reading for any person with acute or chronic low back pain\" (Chris Shaffrey, MD, chief of the Duke Spine Division).","brand":"S\u0026s\/Simon Element","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46156756090927,"sku":"9781668211632","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/2855\/6847\/files\/imageloader_f016c7d6-86e1-4f04-8d81-176da3cc1de6.jpg?v=1789045335","url":"https:\/\/tssbooks.com\/products\/take-your-back-back","provider":"tssbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
