A Pain Removal System Whose Time Has Come
Millions of people suffer unnecessarily from back, neck, hip,shoulder, knee, or ankle pain. Until now, the primary remedial alternatives were surgery, drugs, and other forms of treatment aimed at the symptoms, rather than the source of the pain. Sherry Brourman, a registered physical therapist with twenty-five years of experience, treats patients who thought their conditions were hopeless, and she has turned their lives around by targeting the pivotal cause of their pain -- walking incorrectly. Now, for the first time, Sherry offers her proven techniques in this simple, step-by-step, illustrated guide.
Inside this book you will find a series of evaluative questions that lead you to your own individual gait corrections and supportive exercises. The illustrated strengthening and stretching exercises are tailored to your specific gait corrections and your personal area(s) of pain. The techniques are easy-to-follow. And learning to walk the right way will restore proper alignment allowing your body to heal and remove pain by itself.
Eliminating pain isn't the only benefit you'll derive by balancing th e way you walk. These corrections improve muscle tone and enhance your overall physical shape and appearance. After practicing Brourman's corrective walking techniques for just a few sessions, you will be able to apply the same structural balancing methods to all your daily activities and leave your pain behind.
This book might have been published as a general "how to" reference manual on walking. As such it works beautifully. But people with the most urgent needs are those in pain right now. If you're one of them, this book is for you. It will give you the tools you need to eliminate most structural pain, and prevent it's return.
